Kwon Sangpil,

The dedicated meat shop owner, is known for his loyalty, good behavior, and talkative nature. Always taking care of himself, he was best friends with Hooyeong in high school and stepped up to care for Hongju and Hyeji after Hooyeong suddenly left for the US. Sangpil was also the first to discover something happened between Hooyeong and Hongju.

so i mentioned other drama that has similar aspects with FoE, but really, I think the drama that is closest to FoE is Avicii (2016), a short drama (only 1 ep of 1 hour and 13 minutes) which is written by the writer of FoE and it’s available in youtube.

Basically, the main character, a mom and her son, is like Baek mom-son in alternate universe lol. The son that has a cold, unemotional, ruthless personality. The mom that unwittingly raised her son to be that way. The mom got blackmailed (though she’s almost raped in Avicii) and killed the blackmailer. She got shaken and turned quite unstable, ridden with guilt (there’s a dash of Do Haesoo in her too. Haesoo even repeated what the mom here did on the ending of the drama). The son’s unwavering loyalty to his mom. Personally I find the characters in Avicii made more sense than their counterpart in Baek family. Admittedly FoE scenes are prettier than Avicii, but the story makes it a worthy watch.

My Korean study resources [2020 Q1]

People were asking me what I’m using right now to self-study seeing as I’ve stopped taking lessons. I have to admit - its really really difficult to keep motivated actually but switching up resources keeps things fresh so I can continue being happy like my kid Felix [KEEP READING]

Book

Some of you know that I moved from London to the Philippines this year and couldn’t take much of my stuff with me so I ditched all my books in my house and I’m only working off one book right now

Intermediate Korean: A Grammar and Workbook by Andrew Sangpil Byon [LINK HERE]

Online learning resources

Talk To Me In Korean (TTMIK) Basic courses - working through from beginning to end to revise my grammar - I just finished Level 1 - even though their level test says I’m Level 6, there was still stuff I didn’t know in Level 1 LMAO

TTMIK videos - whenever I’m looking for an explanation, they usually have it on YouTube. They also just released a channel that’s 100% in Korean [LINK HERE]

TTMIK Friday lessons - they do a free live lesson on a Friday at 12PM KST on Instagram live and YouTube live - I could never watch it in England, but I’m in the right time zone now

Quizlet - I’m studying the study sets for TOPIK I and TOPIK II to increase my vocabulary - I do 5 minutes of learning a day and then try to make sentences from the words I don’t know. [Links here: TOPIK I, TOPIK II - there are actually a lot of sets here so go look - also trust your instinct, some words might be spelled wrong]

[I stopped using Nuri Sejong - King Sejong Institute website and switched to TTMIK, because the Sejong interface is so clunky I can’t navigate it very well so it was stressing me out more]

Chat and study group

HelloTalk - this is the only chat app I use because I’m scared of other apps. It’s pretty good - I like how you can correct people’s posts constructively and they can correct you in return - people are really helpful. There is also a voice and video call function. I’ve also made a lifelong friend on there who I met up with in Korea last month :)

Reading and translation

NAVER webtoons - easy vocabulary - interesting stories

Beelinguapp - I’m reading children’s books on here in Korean - it’s still really difficult.....

Newspaper and magazine articles - whenever I see a Korean newspaper I will pick it up, cut an interesting article out and stick it in my book (lol my book is full of NCT and EXO clippings) then do a translation, listing my new vocab and grammar on the side for revision later

Listening and watching

KDRAMA - enough said. I try to actually use my ears these days and write down words I catch or useful phrases. Sometimes I switch from English subs to Korean subs to get the spelling before switching back

Variety shows - by now you probably know that I’m a KPop stan, so I watch a lot of variety shows - for the past few years I’ve been watching them with a notebook in hand and write down words and phrases - it takes me 4 times as long to get through a clip/episode but I’ve learned so many natural AND useful phrases. This is probably my best resource

TTMIK Listening practice using Real Life Conversations listening files and IYAGI (you can find these on Google Podcasts)

Additional resources I want eventually:

Your First Hanja Guide - TTMIK [LINK HERE] - I know, I know... you don’t need Hanja really... but, whenever I study with my friend who speaks Mandarin and Cantonese, he groups similar words based on the root Chinese character and I’m always like THIS MAKES SO MUCH SENSE

News in Korean - TTMIK [LINK HERE] - to improve my reading

OKAY I’m not a TTMIK fangirl or anything - what happened was I rejected TTMIK for years because I was using Sogang books and I didn’t want to get confused and I didn’t know if TTMIK was any good back then. Now I realise that Hyunwoo and the gang actually explain stuff REALLY well and their resources are top quality and easy to understand, so in the past year I’ve had a transformation and have moved my learning to TTMIK curriculum. I’m still not a premium member yet, but maybe some day.... anyway I own a load of their books.

Title: Charming Grim Reaper

(꽃미남 저승사자)

Summary:

I, Han Ji-An, am already struggling as a no-name actress. To make matters worse, I ended up falling down the stairs and dying because of superstar Ji So-Won’s fanclub. However, in reality, Ji So-Won is a grim reaper trying to take me to the afterlife!? That can't possibly be true!? I’m not ready to leave this life. No. It shouldn't be me!
