Lesson 14: Tongdaemun Market is probably the best, right?

In this lesson we follow Eunice Murphy and Mrs. Kim as they head out for a day’s shopping, then observe Chris Murphy at work; first being introduced to a new Korean business colleague, then greeting a caller at his office. The lesson shows how to introduce friends and order food at restaurant, and provides a taste of verbal niceties in an office environment. We introduce two new types of ‘future’ tense, the Korean equivalent of tag questions in English (isn’t that right? isn’t that so?), and see more on also, going and coming.
