READ WHAT NATIVE KOREAN SPEAKERS WROTE

Each chapter ends with a section showing natural Korean writing samples submitted by native Korean speakers. Read what they wrote in response to questions like: "아이들이 축복이라고 생각하나요, 부담이라고 생각하나요, 아니면 둘 다라고 생각하나요?" (Do you think children are a blessing, a burden, or both?), "만약에 10억이 생긴다면 무슨일을 하고 싶어요?" (If you won a million dollars, what would you do?), and "가지고 싶은 초능력에 대해 적어보세요." (Describe a superpower you wish you had). Challenge your reading comprehension through these native writing samples, and check your understanding with translations in the back of the book.
