Learn Korean with News: Beating the Monsoon Season & Rainy Day Culture
Hello, Korean learners! It's Soona.
Have you ever heard the term 'Jangma' (장마) in Korea? As the summer approaches, the month-long monsoon season brings unique changes to Korean daily life.
While some enjoy the rainy weather by eating crispy Pajeon with Makgeolli, others find it challenging to deal with the high humidity and sticky heat. It's a season where Koreans adapt their lifestyles, from searching for trending 'monsoon items' to flocking to large indoor shopping malls to beat the rain.
In today’s interactive lesson, we will explore this atmospheric monsoon trend while mastering essential Korean vocabulary and highly practical grammar patterns like 'V + -기 쉽다' (It is easy to...), 'N/V/A + -기 때문에' (Because of...), and 'V + -길(기를) 바라다' (I hope that...).
Be sure to click the sentences in the interactive module below to listen to the premium native audio, and practice your speaking out loud! Let’s dive into the unique culture of Korea's monsoon season together!
