The Korean Words No Dictionary Will Teach You.

Ever listened to two Korean speakers and caught most of it - but a few words left you completely lost? Chances are, you ran into slang - and standard dictionaries simply don't cover it. That's exactly where this book comes in. The teachers and R&D team at Talk To Me In Korean have combined two volumes of their popular Slang Expressions in Korean e-book series into one beautiful book, unlocking 60 real slang expressions that Koreans actually use today.
