🤷 How long does it take to get better at speaking Korean?
Some people just have a natural ability and learn languages quickly, but for most to go beyond the basics and gain working fluency in Korean will necessitate at least 600 hours of practice. The actual range of time can differ a lot depending on your current level of Korean or knowledge of other languages in the same group. As soon as you've learned the basics it is a good idea to use the language as often as possible: watch television, try typing using your new language skills, try to communicate with native speakers to speak with, try additional ways to think and speak in Korean out loud. If this is not easy you can also take conversational Korean classes online.
