The community is free — and always will be. But if you want me to personally listen to your Korean and tell you exactly what to fix, I offer two options: 1-Day Pronunciation Trial — $9 Send me one audio recording (1–2 sentences). I'll tell you: - What your pronunciation actually sounds like to a native - Exactly which sounds need work and why - 2-3 things you can fix immediately - A native audio reference to compare Delivered within 24 hours. ======= Monthly Coaching — $99/month Details coming soon. To get started with the Trial, send me a message or email: ottochae@gmail.com Payment via PayPal or Stripe.

Every day for 30 days, I'll post one Korean sentence. Your job: record yourself saying it and upload the clip. That's it. 10 seconds a day. What you'll get: - A daily speaking habit - Real improvement in pronunciation and confidence - Community support from fellow learners 📅 Start date: To be announced soon. Comment "I'm in! 🙋" below to join the waitlist. The challenge is completely free. Let's do this together.

If you've ever watched a Korean drama, you've seen it: it's 10pm, and someone is eating ramen or fried chicken alone in their apartment. This isn't just a drama thing. It's real. Korea has one of the most active late-night food cultures in the world — 24-hour convenience stores, late-night delivery, dawn delivery (새벽 배송). The phrase "ya-shik" (야식) literally means "night food" and it's a whole culture. What do you think of this ya-shik culture? Does your country have a late-night food culture? What do you eat? Drop your thoughts as a comment below — in English or Korean, both are welcome 👇

Here's your first speaking challenge. Say this sentence out loud and record yourself: "안녕하세요, 저는 [your name]이에요." (Hello, I am [your name].) Then upload your audio clip as a comment below. Don't worry about being perfect. That's not the point. The point is to get your voice out there. 💡 Pronunciation tip: "안녕하세요" ends with a falling tone — not rising like a question. Try it! I'll listen to every recording and leave a short comment. 🎧

A little about me: - Native Korean speaker - Undergrad in Business, Seoul National University - MBA & Juris Doctor, University of Wisconsin in the US - Former Korea Country Rep of a global ed tech company - International business consultant & lawyer Why I built this community: I noticed that most Korean learning platforms teach at you. They give you grammar rules, vocabulary lists, quizzes. But nobody teaches you how to actually open your mouth and sound natural. That's what LingMo Lab is for. At LingMo Korean Speaking Lab, I help learners improve: - Pronunciation - Intonation - Rhythm - Speaking speed - Linking sounds - Natural flow - Sentence-building skills - Real conversation ability I personally listen to your recordings and give you real, specific feedback — not generic tips. If you ever want a personal pronunciation evaluation, I'm here. For now — introduce yourself and let's get started! 🎙️ I’m excited to guide your Korean speaking journey and help you experience the moment when Korean finally “clicks.” Welcome to LingMo Korean Speaking Lab! 😊🎙🇰🇷
