  • very great course :) compared to korea 101r, 102r is a bit easier if you started korea 101 with no background in korean. you just learn more vocab. i think the best thing we learned was the "connectives"

  • Moderately harder than 101R.

  • Fun course with professors who are patient with the learning process. Requires a decent bit of memorization but otherwise a pretty fun course that can lead you to an extra diploma after four courses.

  • I really enjoyed taking this course!! Although the Korean is a difficult language to learn, my profs were very kind and considerate and one could tell that they are passionate about teaching.

  • Very similar in difficulty to KOREA 101R, we just added on to what we learned before. There is a lot more grammar points to look out for but overall a useful and interesting course. The structure was similar to that of KOREA 101R with the two tests, oral assignment, written assignment, and group assignment.
