📍 The information below is partially excerpted from the learning materials of the Korean board game JEONGEUM-Card.

 

 

Let me explain it simply in Hangeul.😊

 

 

It's very easy!

 

In Korean, "Love you" is said as "사랑해".

 

Let's take a closer look at the initial, medial, and final sounds with "사랑해".

 

 

The phrase ❤사랑해❤ consists of a total of 3 initial sounds, 3 medial sounds, and 1 final sound.

 

In Korea, there are games developed using the principles of initial, medial, and final sounds. 

 

Including Running Man, these principles of initial, medial, and final sounds often appear in games on Korea's internationally famous variety shows.

 

The JEONGEUM-Card used in today's content is also a board game that utilizes the principles of initial, medial, and final sounds. Through these principles, players engage in conversation and games, employing a wide array of vocabulary. Therefore, understanding these principles of initial, medial, and final sounds is crucial for anyone delving into the Korean language.  

 

Let's have fun studying Korean again in our next content! See you next time. 🖐
