Hi! I was wondering – do you have any advice on Korean pronunciation? I am currently horrible at pronouncing Korean, so any advice would help! ALSO – my Kakaotalk id is @smileyulli , if anyone wants to talk, just for encouraging each other or whatever! Thanks!!!

Hi! Well, practising with native speakers and asking them to correct your pronunciation is the best way. You can do this during language exchange or perhaps put recordings of your speaking on Lang-8. Learning the pronunciation rules is really important if you haven’t already. Also just practice to train your mouth! Read out-loud whenever you’re reading and follow along/mimic the pronunciation when you’re listening to something.
