@@Ri57490 just watch GOT7 "A" that release before the predebut of twice, she already looks so pretty in that, just because she became chubby in sixteen and do an extremely diet, then you say she is plastic surgery lol, i know you are the tzuyu Stan that always insult sana in every video of twice, saying the same thing again and agains, go search a job bruh!
I’m an English speaker learning Korean right now and I’ve noticed that dramas helped me discover new vocabulary while variety shows helped me with more everyday expressions.
Trying to learn Japanese and Korean at the same time, in my opinion Japanese is easier in terms of speaking but learning and memorizing Hiragana, Katakana chart and Kanji is the hard part of the language harder than Hangul, Korean is easier in terms of Alphabet mastery since you only have to master the vowels and consonants and can be learn in less than a month but in terms of speaking I think Korean is harder, well atleast in my opinion.
I agree with Japanese speaking being easier than Korean. I'm Chinese-American and Japanese is so much easier for me to pickup by listening. I almost exclusively watch k-dramas (I know Sana says it's bad for learning LOL) and listen to k-pop and I CANNOT pick up hardly any Korean from listening. It is impossible for me to distinguish syllables and it sounds slurred together. For Japanese (anime amd Japanese dub in video games), I can pretty quickly listen and write it out in Romaji or even just repeat back what I just heard.
Although I'm a multifan ever since kindergarten (2008), SNSD was the first girl group i admire most. I agree with Sana, during my grade 6 days I watch SNSD guesting in variety shows in RU-vid and bcuz of that, i learned reading the Korean alphabet and learned more words little by little thanks to that.😅
I'm new to trying to learn Korean as well and it's incredibly difficult if you don't have someone that speaks Korean that you can talk to and ask questions or hear how certain things are pronounced. But, I'll keep trying!
As far as I know, I heard that Sana learned Koran vocabulary and sentences while reading some essay books.(Maybe this is not very accurate, and means the early days when she came to Korea before her debut) In fact, Momo and Mina also speak very fluent Korean now, but it is common for Sana to speak more fluent than those two. In most circumstances she understands and uses very accurately the subtle nuances of words.(but never be pedantic)
As someone trying to learn another language I wholeheartedly agree lol. Watching dating shows is way easier and helpful for learning because the language they use is basic and understandable
if you already know asian language from birth learning other Asian languages is a lot easier like for 6 months to 1 year studying, but learning English is way harder if not taught at a young age 2-4years, it all depends on our luck in our brain at the end of the day ot9 are all geniuses especially Tzuyu
Sana already said this long time ago if I not wrong at the agency car v live. So now it's still the same. She's right tho, beside you can see irl speaking conversations also variety shows put caption everywhere so you can learn the exact word if you confused with the spoken words.
I imagine with dramas and movies you'll end up sounding fake. Because everything is scripted and rehearsed. But variety shows are unscripted and unpredictable with more natural and casual interaction.
Her English is adorable. I respectfully disagree with her though, I think immersing yourself in Korean media as much as possible is the best way to go, dramas, variety shows, Kpop, etc. and if possible picking a time of your day where you make it a point to think in Korean as much as possible while doing this. Also if you play any video games where you deal with items and such and know what everything is, then maybe turn on the Korean localization? idk that's just an idea of mine I'ma try with Minecraft. If nothing else I could probably build some word-object association that way bc I've played the game for years, like I know what everything is lmao.
I think Korean and Japanese are very similar, like Spanish and Portuguese, with some effort, you can understand the other person. I noticed, when watching Korean tv shows, that many words are very similar (if not the same) as Japanese.
