Dima, so did you learn anything new while you were in Korea? Where did you stay?
I guess the most important thing I learnt was that there's a lot more to Korea than just the language :scratch:

I sure learnt quite a bit, but I also became disillusioned - I will never be able to learn, let alone accept the culture, so many things are exclusively for domestic consumption, culture seems to be changing rather quickly, so I could just wait until I'm old and bald and come visit the new completely sane westernized Korea then? Dunno, something like that :-( I stayed on Kyunnghee Seoul campus and travelled around a bit.

I think you don't have to buy any software.

If you are using MS Windows 2000 or Windows XP, you can add input method for different languages such as Chinese, Japanese or Korean from Control Panel's Regional Language Option. If you are using pre Windows 2000, such as windows 98, you can install Input method editor from Microsoft
http://www.microsoft.com/windows/ie/dow ... stall.mspx

Macintosh OS X also has similar built-in IME.

ahem there are tons of kpoop out there! not very hard to find really...

now if you wanted to find some real music, that would be a lot harder... anyway soompi.com forums is the place to check for names. there are a couple of online korean radios out there too, but I couldn't find anything really good :(

(btw that was a typo up there, no pun intended)

hi there!!sorry to intrude,I am french girl who is very interested in korean culture, thanks to dramas I must confess. while watching many k-dramas, there's a question which keeps bothering me: I really wonder about the "oppa"notion.Is it a name you give to your lover or is it the equivalent of the japanese word"senpai"(older classmate)?Sometimes it is translated as "big brother" and sometimes"baby" or "dear". i would be really grateful if someone would be kind enough to explain this to me, as i intend to subb myself, I really would like to understand. In advance, kamsamida!!

@nadesico
Oppa is term used by a girl to call her old brother or some older guy close to her. Because in korea, you don't call older person just by name. So they have different terms to call elder people.
Oppa -> girl to call an elder brother
UhnNi -> girl to call an elder sister
Hyung -> boy to call an elder brother
NooNa -> boy to call an elder sister

Either you use these terms, or you can use <name> term. For example, a girl have an older brother name DongGun, she can call him either 'Oppa' or 'DongGun Oppa'.

About senpai...
Senpai is how japanese pronounce the chinese characters for older classmate. The same chinese characters are pronounced as SuhnBeh in Korean


@dya
I don't think it has any special meaning.. maybe I'm wrong. It's a name of a female character in a korean drama series.

I don't know much of japanese but I think Onii-chan is same as Oppa in korean.

There're different term to address adult.

AGahSsi - young unmarried female.
AJoomMa - married female.
AJuhSsi - grown up male.

Difference between Oppa and AjuhSii, only girl used the teram Oppa. And usually someone she knows already, and age difference is not much but always to elder male.

As far as I know, you can't convert a romanized Korean name to Hanja (Chinese characters).

Even if you had a full Korean name, written in Hangeul, you'd still have trouble being able to convert the letters. There are several words in Hanja that can replace the sound of one part of a person's name. Not everyone named Park in Korea is related. There are several different families named Park, each designated with a different Hanja. The same goes for every other last name out there, Chang, Kim, Lee, Won, etc. etc.

The only way to write a Korean name in Hanja is to know the Hanja beforehand, or know what the name means.

Nope. Little Brother and Little Sister are called "dong-sang".

Hi, I 'm curious to know if there is a typical Korean look i.e . from the first look he/she is assumed Korean. I was going through another forum and two people were arguing about the looks of the Chinese and Korean actors and actresses. Many Chinese mistook a Korean guy I knew for a Chinese.

easiest way to find out either they are chinese / korean is to look at their noses.. No offense to neither of them... but the way I see it Chinese people have more round kind of shaped noses compared to Koreans..

You are 1.5? Looking to work out in Korea in the financial industry? I'm typing this in English because I hate typing in Korean - takes way too long.

Unfortunately, I don't think you can avoid taking exams in Korean if the position, especially, is for a Korean-based company. You might want to seek out companies here in the US and then go out. There are financial firms that you could look into. Accenture (accounting and consulting) and Allianz (the biggest insurance commodities company) firms located right there in your neck of the woods - in L.A. Korea Town. Can't tell you the exact location - I think Allianz is located on Whilshire blvd, but can't be certain. Got a job in Allianz a couple of years ago, but couldn't go due to personal crisis. Since you mentioned your interest in getting a grad degree (MBA, I'm guessing), you might want to go ahead and do that to increase your chances.

Of course, I've heard of USC. Very solid, indeed! Almost went there a few years back. Too bad Koreans living out in Korea are more familiar with UCLA!

well.. I knew there were students studying in Korea as an exchange student.. but not many international students.. English is really important for everyone in any country I'm sure, but Korean? heh probably only for those interested in Korea and people like yourselves who likes our culture and such ^^* I'm very glad though.. that you like Korean stuff!

We have all four seasons.. probably all equal throughout.. but we do get lots of rainfalls compared to other countries. Personally, I think our weather is great except that it's a little bit on the hot side.. it doesn't mean that we don't have snow :)
Here is a picture of Seoul with Seoul Tower on top of what may seem like a hill. In my opinion Korea is most beautiful during night with all the lightings and such on bridges, roads, buildings etc.. during the day it might not be as appealing because of pollution and crowded places heh, I like people... and crowded places.. but that's just me.. not sure about you.

한국 여러분 한 부탁드립니다!

A clubbox that I went to often is now pw protected. Can anyone here with a naver id do me a favor and find out what it is?

The cafe 비밀번호 is in the second thread here:

http://cafe.naver.com/whdgkqajfxl.cafe

I'm not a Korean resident so I don't have a naver id. Also, I'm not willing to scan my social security etc to get one.

Thanks!

8) I was wondering if the Korean Peepz actually meet their korean-tv drama actors and actresses? Where I live in Canada, the country is so big and most of the canadian actors and actresses lives in L.A. so like no chance of meeting someone I seen on tv. So like, do all y'all Koreans meet them? I wanna meet Kwon Sung-Woo I think is a hottie.. LOL :P Anyone in Korea wanna be my friend, maybe I can visit you and we can both meet .. you kno.. :whistling: :lol

It is easy to see Korean Actor/Actress in korea because most of them are in the rich parts of Seoul ... i haven't seen anyone too exciting, but I am only in korea 3 months out of the year... and not always in seoul, but a lot of my korean friends have~~

Hangul

Post by Mich-Chan » Jul 9th, '06, 20:58

Hi, I'm Mich from the Philippines,,, :-)

Well, I really wanted to learn Korean.. :roll

I'd searched the internet and studied some articlies about Hangul. I do know now how to read/write and speak Korean the problem is, I don't have any idea what that means. :unsure:

Is there any way to understand Korean than memorizing common phrases? :lol

I wished I made myself clear. Thx! :whistling:

For windows XP~

Once you have set-up your computer to view Hangul, you need to do one more thing in order to type Hangul. It should take approximately 2 minutes.
1)Go to Start - Control Panel
2)Open Regional And Language Options (May be found inside the Date, Time, Language, and Regional Options tab)
3)Go to the tab at the top that says Languages
4)Make sure the box for Install files for East Asian Languages near the bottom is checked
5)Select 'Details' under 'Text Services and Input Languages'
6)Click 'Add' on the right-hand side
7)Select Korean for 'Input Languages' and click 'Ok'
8)Select 'Apply at the bottom, and then click 'Ok'. You may be asked to restart.
Your computer is now set up to type in Korean. In order to actually type Korean, click the little blue button on the taskbar that says EN. Select KO. The options to the right should change. There should be an A. Click that once, and it will change to a Korean character. Type :)

You can just go to a korean website... and it will say something like "install Korean Text" so you might have already done that
