Korean characters are based on Hangul, the official script of South Korea. Hangul is an alphabet system consisting of 14 basic consonants and 10 basic vowels, making a total of 24 letters. But combined these can make as many as 11,172 characters. In this way - a stupendously effective but easy to learn code - any sound in the Korean language may be reproduced.

The military alphabet, also known as the NATO phonetic alphabet, is a way to ensure clear verbal communication over radio or telephone. Here it is: Alpha for A, Bravo for B, Charlie for C, Delta for D, Echo for E, Foxtrot for F, Golf for G, Hotel for H, India for I, Juliett for J, Kilo for K, Lima for L, Mike for M, November for N, Oscar for O, Papa for P, Quebec for Q, Romeo for R, Sierra for S, Tango for T, Uniform for U, Victor for V, Whiskey for W, X-ray for X, Yankee for Y, and Zulu for Z.
It's hugely helpful when you need to spell out names or codes over the phone, or in situations where normal voice communication might be hindered.

I remember picking up 'Four Letters of Love' and being surprised by its deceptively slim appearance—until I realized the emotional weight it carried. The paperback edition I own runs about 256 pages, but page counts vary slightly depending on the publisher and format. Some editions hover around 240 pages, while others stretch closer to 270 due to differences in font size or margins.
What fascinates me is how such a relatively short novel manages to weave such a sprawling love story across generations. The pacing feels deliberate; every page serves a purpose, whether it’s exploring the rugged Irish landscapes or delving into the characters’ inner turmoil. Despite its brevity, it leaves a lasting impression, proving that page count doesn’t dictate depth. I’ve seen readers debate whether it’s a quick read or one to savor slowly—the answer probably lies somewhere in between.

To say 'are you ok?' in Korean, you can use '괜찮아요?' (gwaenchanhayo?). It's a simple yet caring way to check on someone. I like using it because it feels warm and personal. Plus, it’s a great phrase to remember if you’re visiting Korea. You can show you care about someone’s well-being and maybe even strike up a conversation about their day!

'Oppa' in Korea is used by female speakers towards older males. Often it is used among siblings, although friends and romantic couples commonly make use of it too. The meaning of usage variations are based on the relation between the speaker and hearer. It could be dear or honey.
If a girl calls her local boyfriend "Oppa", then she generally conveys an affectious nuance in her voice. It's not enough just to use a phrase like this. You have to do it right, and respectfully. This is after all, in South Korean culture norms of age and respect (juniority) weigh very heavily.

I too find it hard to begin learning Korean, but after a few months it starts feeling pretty comfortable. The key is to throw yourself completely into it. Watch K-dramas, listen to K-pop, chat with other learners on the Internet (for example via KakaoTalk), and download a language app such as Duolingo or Rosetta Stone.
To give my learning a shape, I bought a language workbook. I would recommend "Korean Made Simple" by Billy Go. It's easy to read and gives you a good beginning.

Oh, you want to know how to introduce yourself in Korean? Not a problem! You'd typically start by saying '안녕하세요' (Annyeonghaseyo) which translates to 'Hello'. Then you can share your name by saying '제 이름은 (your name)입니다' (Je ireumeun [your name]-imnida) which means 'My name is (your name)'.
To express it's nice to meet others, say '만나서 반갑습니다' (Mannaseo bangapseumnida). Learning Korean can be a blast, especially if you're into K-dramas or K-pop. Enjoy the journey!

'괜찮아요?' (Gwaenchanayo?) is one possible Korean translation. In fact, it is very simple indeed and is typically the same linguistic manner for saying this in English. It's a very common phrase that reflect general intonation when speaking Korean, it is used mainly as a way of checking f someone's okay. Korean language and K-dramas fans see this phrase frequently.
