Are you ready to supercharge your Korean listening comprehension? Our podcast is the perfect tool for you.

Studies show that the key to mastering a second language is through repetition and active processing. That's why each episode of our podcast features a story in Korean, followed by a sentence-by-sentence retelling that alternates between Korean and English.

This approach not only allows you to fully understand and absorb the vocabulary and grammar but also provides a bilingual support to aid your listening comprehension.

But we don't stop there. Research in sociolinguistics highlights the importance of culture in language learning, which is why we provide a list of vocabulary words and a transcript of the audio to help you understand the cultural context of the story. And for your convenience, we also include a transcript of the audio to help you refer back to any parts you may have struggled with.

And our podcast is not just for language learners, it's also for travelers or people who want to connect with their roots. Are you planning a trip to South Korea or North Korea? Maybe you want to speak Korean with your family from Seoul? Our podcast will give you the cultural and linguistic background to fully immerse in Korea.

Our podcast is based on the latest research in linguistics, sociolinguistics, psychology, cognitive science, neuroscience, and education to provide the most effective method for mastering Korean listening comprehension.

Minjun thought to himself.Ko: 하지만 그는 은지가 자신보다 뛰어난 의견을 제시할까 두려웠다.En: But he was afraid that she might offer a superior opinion.Ko: 그녀는 창의력이 뛰어난 동료였고, 그간 서로 경쟁하는 듯한 관계였다.En: Eunji was a creative colleague, and they had always seemed to be in a competitive relationship.Ko: 그럼에도 불구하고 그는 혼자 해결하려고 애썼다.En: Nevertheless, he struggled to solve it on his own.Ko: 자신의 힘으로 이 문제를 해결하고 싶었다.En: He wanted to resolve this issue with his own strength.Ko: 다음 날 아침, 눈이 내리던 날, 회사는 평소보다 더 바빴다.En: The next morning, on a snowy day, the company was busier than usual.Ko: 모두가 자신의 업무에 몰두하며, 설 분위기를 느낄 시간조차 없었다.En: Everyone was so engrossed in their work that they didn't even have time to feel the holiday atmosphere.Ko: 민준은 힘겹게 회의실로 향했다.En: Minjun trudged toward the meeting room.Ko: 프레젠테이션이 시작되자 민준은 잘 설명해 나갔다.En: As the presentation began, Minjun explained things well.Ko: 동료들과 상사인 현수는 그의 발표를 주의 깊게 듣고 있었다.En: His colleagues and his boss, Hyunsu, were listening attentively to his presentation.Ko: 그러나 중간에 한 고객이 계산 관련 질문을 던졌고, 민준은 순간 당황했다.En: However, midway, a client asked a question related to calculations, which caught Minjun off guard.Ko: 이것이 어제 밤 발견한 오류와 관련된 질문임을 깨달았다.En: He realized it was related to the error he discovered the night before.Ko: 그는 땀을 흘리며 순간을 멈칫했다.En: He hesitated for a moment, sweating.Ko: 침묵을 깨고 그는 정직하게 말했다.En: Breaking the silence, he spoke honestly.Ko: "죄송합니다. 어젯밤 자료를 검토하던 중 계산 오류를 발견했습니다. 지금 바로 수정 안을 제시하겠습니다."En: "I apologize. While reviewing the materials last night, I found a calculation error. I will present a correction immediately."Ko: 은지가 그때 민준의 옆에 서서 빠르게 대안을 설명했다.En: At that moment, Eunji stood by Minjun and quickly explained an alternative.Ko: 그녀의 즉각적인 대응으로 프레젠테이션은 순조롭게 마무리될 수 있었다.En: Her prompt response allowed the presentation to conclude smoothly.Ko: 회의가 끝난 후, 민준은 은지에게 감사의 인사를 전했다.En: After the meeting ended, Minjun expressed his gratitude to Eunji.Ko: "네가 아니었다면 큰일 날 뻔했어."En: "If it weren't for you, things could have gone badly."Ko: 은지가 미소 지으며 말했다. "다음에는 문제를 같이 해결하자. 서로 도우면 더 좋은 결과를 만들 수 있으니까."En: Eunji smiled and said, "Let's solve problems together next time. We can achieve better results by helping each other."Ko: 현수는 민준의 솔직함과 은지의 협력 능력을 높이 평가했다.En: Hyunsu praised Minjun's honesty and Eunji's ability to cooperate.Ko: 그리고 이렇게 덧붙였다.

Either they're using AI for the English speaker or the person speaking has absolutely no clue how any of the Korean words and names are pronounced. Not to mention the names are pronounced differently each time.
For a site that claims it is based on sociolinguistics, it seems to be missing a human component.
It was really hard to get past Jeyuungbookgoong for 경복궁.
