How watching dramas help you learn Korean?

Is it even possible to use Korean dramas to study Korean?

The short answer is yes.

Back in 2016, I hardcore fell for Korean dramas. I used to watch one after other features and, just like that, became a couch potato.

But never thought this would be a help to me while acquiring the tongue. There are many reasons to learn Korean with dramas.

One of the most exciting things while picking up this speech is that we get to watch soapies.

The spaced repetition method encourages you to listen, read, and speak the same thing many times. This will fix the dialogues in your mind and tongue.

Of course, you won’t be anywhere close to fluent, but those words and sentences will stick in your brain.

And be shocked at that plot twist over twists in he is Psychometric.

Besides reading (subtitles) and speaking (mimicking the dialogues), you will improve your listening skills.

This is a fun way to learn a new language through Korean dramas.

If your Korean institute can teach in three years, shorten the time to two if you have Korean dramas besides the classroom instruction.

Cultural appearances and traditional aspects are also prevalent in the drama — this is a powerful way to immerse yourself into everything Korean. 

This is one of the perks to discover more about South Korea.

I watch dozens of series, but this time, with or without Korean subtitles. As a K-addict myself, I want to do K-drama & feel rather than Netflix & chill.

Where to view Korean dramas?

Many websites and streaming platforms provide tons of dramas, video shows, music, and movies for Korean learners.

You can watch K-dramas on Netflix, Amazon Prime Video, HBO, Hulu, and other free platforms like Asian Crush, Viki Rakuten, DramaCool, Vimeo, Viu, and YouTube.

The selection on these sites may be limited, and some of the most well-known is not available. Still, you can find some exclusive Korean dramas on each website and apps.

With easy access to the internet and various OTT platforms, everyone can experience entertaining Korean drama for their comfort.
