Korean book recommendations for beginners
I'd like to try and read some Korean books to learn that way, does anyone have any suggestions? They can be children's books etc. just so they're written in a straightforward way. Thank you!

the only two books you need to learn korean (besides a dictionary)
Handbook of Korean Vocabulary
by Miho Choo and William O'Grady
This is the equivalent to learning basic Latin if you are an English speaker. After looking through this book you will be able to recognize Korean words you have never seen before just by the contents of the words. i.e. Hanja and Sino

Korean Grammar for International Learners
Yonsei University Press
by Ihm Ho Bin, Hong Kyung Pyo, Chang Suk In.
Once you have a solid vocabulary foundation this book is all you need.

Re:I translated a poem in Korean into English.
Hi Gene,

Im interested in poems. It's an art of language....but im not really familiar with korean poems and poets. I've found a korean poem translated in english before and I think it's something new for me.

I'd like to have some poems translated from you. Really appreciate it. You can introduce me some korean poets as well.

I like this poem:

DREAMS by Langston Hughes

Hold fast to dreams,
For if dreams die,
Life is a broken-winged bird,
That cannot fly.

Hold fast to dreams,
For when dreams go,
Life is a barren field,
Frozen with snow.

I translated a poem in Korean into English.
Take a look at it. :)


If only I be a flower
Jo, Dong-wha
Don¡¯t say
What difference into the meadow
I, just a blossom, can make.
If you bloom
And if I, too, bloom,
After all, the meadow would wholly
Turn into a flower garden,
Wouldn¡¯t it?

Don¡¯t say either
What difference into the mountain
Can only I make if I begin to color.
If I turn red
And if you, too, turn red,
After all, the whole mountain would
Blaze up in fire,
Wouldn¡¯t it?


The Original poem in Korean is below.
