And you can find some nice Korean vocabularies might be very useful if you like taking photos or videos! Yeah… Maybe this lesson is also essential lol.

연기자
[yeon gi ja]

연기자 is combined 2 words by 연기(act), 자(suffix that means person).
Gender doesn’t matter for words in Korean.
연기자 is also called ‘배우’ usually. Both aren’t different much but 연기자 sounds more formal.

배우 누가 제일 좋아요?
What’s your favorite actor?

감독
[gam dok]

감독 means a supervisor for mostly field works, safety, a sport team manager, movie or play. But, a manager in a workplace is called ‘관리자’ often. So you think ‘감독’ always means manager

마이클 베이 감독. 렌즈 플레어로 눈 조질 준비 됐어요?
Directed by Michel Bay. Ready to kill your eyes by lens flare?
record img
촬영하다
[chwal yeong]

촬영 is a formal Korean verb that means recording something with a camera for pictures and videos.
촬영 is a noun for 촬영하다. It seems not much different than your language right? But it has a big big biiiiiiig difference when it’s used in a phrase. Koreans say ‘촬영에 들어가다(enter into recording)’ for saying ‘start to record’.

저는 치킨 300개 먹는거 촬영할거예요
I will record myself eating 300 fried chicken buckets.
shoot img
찍다
[jjik da]

찍다 is an informal word for recording (like shooting) 찍다 actually is an action that move an object down very quickly. (chop, spear, stamp, dip)
If you record something on your TV. Then, 녹화 is more correct than 촬영 or 찍다

사진 찍는 거 좋아해요
I like taking photography
audience img
관객
[gwan gaeg]

관객 is very formal, people don’t say it in a casual talk but you can find this word very easily in real life.

이 영화는 20일만에 천만 관객 돌파했대요
the film recorded over 10 million viewers in 20 days.

This Course Was $15

$15, maybe it’s nothing that you can earn after a couple of hours of labor. Or, maybe you have to work for full days to earn it only because of where you were born. And $15, It’s the average price of Korean textbooks. Life is unfair. But that’s why we can help each other, we are helping each other.

This Is Why I Published My Textbook For Free

I didn’t make it possible alone. A lot of people helped me and encouraged me and, of course, support me. I really appreciate my supporters, Team Junicorns. If my tutorials are helpful or if you want to share the same dream, join the Team Junicorns and support me to keep going.

Why Korean Jun?

Do you really use some words such as ‘a little boy’, ‘lions’ or ‘carrot’ everyday? So, I’m not going to teach those.

The Magical POWER

The ancient magical language from the far far land. Learn Korean and it’ll make you look 500% more charming.

No Fake, No False

Some wise man in the internet age said ‘Don’t believe the internet’. However, in Korean Jun, any tutorial is triple checked! Accurate than any textbooks.

Build Korean Brain

Instead of forcing you to memorize words. I’m going to make you understand how Korean grammar really works. Learn Korean grammar triple faster!

Super Duper High-Quality

This is not just an internet free learning material. I spent years for the Core Grammar course.
