Learning Korean In London

London is a hub of activity, and there are so many communities of people from all over the world in this metropolitan city.

There is a huge desire to speak Korean in the city, and London is thought to be the European City with the biggest community of Korean people living and working, meaning Korean lessons in London are fairly easy to find, and there are opportunities to put what you’ve learned into action.

Korean Language and Culture

Korea's impact on Western culture has been increasingly significant in recent years, primarily driven by the global popularity of South Korean entertainment, particularly K-pop music, Korean dramas (K-dramas), and Korean films. The catchy tunes, dynamic choreography, and stylish visuals of K-pop have captivated audiences worldwide, influencing fashion trends, dance styles, and music production techniques in Western pop culture.

Plus, the storytelling prowess and emotional depth of K-dramas have garnered a dedicated following in the West, leading to adaptations, remakes, and a growing appreciation for the Korean language and culture.

On top of this, Korean cuisine, including dishes like kimchi, bulgogi, and bibimbap, has gained popularity in Western countries, with Korean restaurants becoming increasingly prevalent. Through its vibrant entertainment industry, captivating storytelling, and flavourful cuisine, Korea has made a lasting impact on Western culture, contributing to a more diverse and interconnected global cultural landscape, and this means more people who are looking to learn more about the language.

The Borough of Kingston upon Thames has one of the largest expatriate communities of Koreans in the whole of Europe, many of them are located around the New Malden area, which is sometimes described as Koreatown.

Challenges of Learning Korean as an English Speaker

Learning to use the Korean language is not necessarily intuitive for the English speaker. In fact, it can be a really big challenge for English people to get to grips with the language.

Challenges include:

  • Korean uses its own unique writing system called Hangul, which consists of characters representing consonants and vowels. Learning to read and write in Hangul can be initially challenging for English speakers who are accustomed to the Latin alphabet.
  • Korean has sounds that do not exist in English, such as aspirated consonants and double consonants. Learning to pronounce these sounds accurately can be difficult for English speakers and may require focused practice.
  • Unlike English, Korean verbs undergo various conjugations depending on tense, formality, and politeness levels. Learning the different verb endings and how to conjugate verbs correctly can be complex for English speakers.
  • Korean grammar has a different structure compared to English. For example, Korean sentences often follow a subject-object-verb (SOV) order, which is different from the subject-verb-object (SVO) order in English.
  • Korean has a complex system of honorifics and politeness levels that determine how language is used in different social contexts. Mastering these linguistic nuances and knowing when to use appropriate honorific forms can be challenging for English speakers, and it is definitely tough if you are learning from resources like textbooks and other written resources.
