Hello everyone, this is Korean Unnie who makes learning Korean Fun & Easy! I started my RUclips channel when I was a University Student because I was studying abroad in America and came across many people around the globe who was interested in Korean language and the country itself, South Korea. So I made this channel 'Korean Unnie' as I wanted to be the next door Korean Unnie to all of you who have subscribed! By the way to whom doesn't know, 'Unnie' means sister in Korean. To be specific, 'older sister' and it is a term used by girls to be specific. Well now it became like a pronoun and 'Korean Unnie' refers to me, Sohyun Moon! I am really glad that I was able to make this progress along the RUclips journey so I am able to reach more and more of you!
I uploaded a variety of content related to learning Korean and about Korea from learning Korean Alphabets, learning Korean through K POP, learning Korean Slangs, Proverbs, Idioms, Sino-Korean Words (Hanja), situational Must-Know phrases, real-life based must-know phrases, Korean grammar patters... and so much more!
I wish I can continue to deliver fun & easy content for you guys with more various content in creative ways, and as I go on, my work will be more systemized and organized. I plan to grow the Korean Unnie brand and publish e-books, create merches, and many more.
Thank you for subscribing, #dongdongsquad!
(P.S. Dongdongsquad is what I call my subscribers. I named it after Dongsaeng, which means 'younger siblings' in Korean. Since I call myself 'Korean Unnie;)' By the way, I have a dog named Dongdong too. But guess what, I named my dog after you guys.
SEE YA, #dongdongsquad! 👋

"Beautiful and Bright" - that perfectly describes our Unnie.
You have such a cute laugh too.
I was thinking the same thing! My mom was in the room with me listening a little and when 한국 언니 told us this I looked at mom and said: That is the truest statement EVER spoken!
When I was studying Korean my Korean friends ended up giving me a Korean name because it was easier for *them* to pronounce... so instead o Shelly they called me Sori (소리), which means sound, which they explained fits me since I can sing haha
Or they're trying to tell you you're loud. lol.
I'm really proud of myself self for knowing how to pronounce korean surnames before unnie taught us😎
Edit: I'm sorry I'm just really proud
Me too
@@만시-p6e me three
@@ello3952 hehehe
I know. Just by ear, you understand the pronunciation rules before someone gets to explain them to you.
Learning about the naming system in korea is actually what got me into learning korean. My korean friends were explaining what their names meant and it was really cool to learn about
When I had first moved to Korea, someone I did language exchange with suggested I pick a Korean name. I chose 김주원 which I believe was a character in the show "Secret Garden". In the end, though, my wife got introduced to me with my actual name and said she didn't like my "Korean name". She refused to use it.
Years later, as a joke, I told her that my Korean name would be "안구라". 안 means "not/no" and 구라 is slang for a lie/bullshit. She thought it was hilarious and has called me it since.
I had no idea about the “Choi” pronunciation!! That’s really interesting!
And the Park prononciation😃
cuz you guys learn korean through english pronunciation, which is 100% a wrong way. If you speak korean as how english pronounce, korean ppl will totally have no idea what you are talking about.
Choi came from Chinese surname 崔 which pronunciation is "chui" in Chinese , and Park came from the Chinese surname “朴” which pronunciation is "piao", almost of all Korean surnames were borrowed from China in around 7th or 8th century.
@@cowholy3031 In Hakka (Keija) Chinese 朴 is still pronounced as B/Pak (slightly aspirated), very similar to the sino-korean Park, likewise with 金 pronounced als Jin in Mandarin, but Kim/Kiem in Korean/Hakka Chinese, most famous example is Kim Jong Un (金正恩). Hakka Chinese preserved much more of the original sound of the ancient Tang language from which many sino-japanese/korean/vietnamese loanwords originated from. Somehow Mandarin Chinese has changed so much from the original Tang language, that is is very difficult to hear any resemblance with sino-korean/sino-japanese loanwords.
I can answer that question: in Korea language, there are some mistake when they combine them. 최 should be 췌. 추+에. but we just make it a rule. 최 sounds like 췌. 최 is more simple type than 췌.
I‘m not even learning Korean and I don’t know how I got here but this was cool and now I now a thing or two about Korean names 😂😌
이솔데 or 이졸데 tho read koean.
"romanization sucks"
-korean unnie in 2021.
It's true tho lol
3:42 lol
Roma Invicta !
The problem is there is no good standardization for it, unlike romanji in Japanese or pinyin in Chinese. I've seen Korean romanized in way too many different ways, very inconsistent. It's kind of useless for learning Korean though, since Hangul is so easy. But makes transliterations difficult.
@@uncleho1945 ........
The best Korean teacher ever. Keep the excellent work and videos.
What I was thinking Moon is so common after Kim as South Korean president name is Moon Jae-in. But today I know the truth
There are about only 200 surnames in Korea!!
Moon definitely isn’t as common as Kim and Lee, but it’s not terribly uncommon either:)) not to the extent that i would call it rare, though, haha.
I love her demeanor! Makes it feel so FUN to learn! 😍😍😍😍
I loved that you got a case of the giggles several times. 😂
But I did not know that on tests you had to write your name in Native Korean as well as Sino Korean. Learn something new every day! Thanks for the video! I always enjoy learning new things with you, Sohyun!!
I’ve gotten so far with learning Korean because of her 💕❣️
Beautiful and Bright - I could not have come up with a more perfect description!
Romanization threw away so much vibrant impact in your names ... the ability to associate a name with its precise literal meaning instantly is so cool - "hello dear Beautiful and Bright".
I know someone named 수빈 but that someone is a male, 최수빈 from 투모로우바이투게더
Anyway, Thanks Eonnie🙏🏻
I guess 수빈 is a gender-neutral name too!
Hi moa! I knew it that there will be moa commenting about soobin's name 😂
Ah 수빈 is my bias from TXT
Why did u have to write all this sentence u should've just wrote TXT
@@Soul-sh1bm hehehehe
Names have meanings in every culture and language :)
My name means 'healer monk' or 'healer monk from the land of the little rolling hills'.
My middle names mean 'rock' and 'promontory'/'headland'.
Not every name and every culture. First names in Holland - where I was born - don’t have a meaning. Some last names do, but also not all of them. Some last names here are professions. Like Visser is a common name meaning fisherman. Or Bakker meaning baker (of bread or pastry)
@@Anthony_Gx Dutch first names have meanings. You just don't know what they are. And yes, some "Western" languages for surnames used professions or locations.
She looks so cute, and her name is so pretty, i learnt korean so fast after i discovered her channel, thanks unnie
looking at the wobbling chair the whole time 😨
How u did that last emoji ya?!?!?
Hi@@MyAmygdala_ channel member have access to a bunch of special emojis 🙂
@@-Alex-B- oh
알렉스 , Al-ex, 알-렉스, A-l-e-x, 아-ㄹ-ㄹ-ㅔ-ㄱ ㅅ.
Love your classes very much 😍😍😍😍 and I understand everything very well Thank you for your hard work 🥺
Thanku unnie for teaching us everything...and I had really wondered about why Koreans have 3 syllables in their name and now I know why..thanku unnie ,this was a new information for your dong dong squad..언니 사랑해..화이팅 ✊💜💜
Wow.. this was the 1st time I getting a heart from you...너무 감사합니다 언니 🥺💜😘
I still don't know why there are two syllables in the first name.. but i think one part is gnerational shared by siblings, i also think which part first or second of first name is the gnenerational and it flips eveyr other generation.. but none of this was explained.
I think this video was recommended because of all of the kpop I watch, and I’m so glad I found your channel. Beautiful and bright really suits you.
All Korean names have their own meaning , take the big Korean big hero Yi Sun-sin for example , his name is written 李舜臣 in Chinese , 李 is his surname , 舜 is an ancient Chinese emperor , 臣 means minister , so his name means minster of Shun(舜).
Koreans have no original surnames. Like most savage tribes. They copy Chinese surnames.
정말 멋지다! Unnie I made a korean study group on instagram and we are learning together I recommend them your videos and they say it's interesting and helpful! 언니는 최고예요!
subscribing for that 4minute reference alone loooool
also the way that she just cracks up at her own jokes is so adorable!!
Ohh,I wanted to know this too for a long time now!!!
Your last video of School system was so helpful!!! This too ,is soo helpful and informative...thank you Unnie 🙏🙏😀
Thank you for sharing some Korean culture.
The way you teach is very understandable.
YT showed this recommendation. You speak English well and so I subbed right away!
You are such a good teacher you explain everything 💕✨✨
Instant follow. Your explanations are comfortable and easy to follow. Thank you for that. Also I'm smiling with you as you laugh. 🤭😆
maybe missed one thing about family, because you have your last name but also the second character is also used by the same family like "moon so hyun", and your lil brother name would be "moon so (...)" etc
Not necessarily.
That’s kind of like naming two siblings with similar names. Ex: my name is 문서영 and my sibling is 문지영. We both share a character in our first name.
@@jmo_on true that is what i mean :) i think that is like a system to know that the siblings come from that family.
that's generation name, not only your siblings but all your cousins 2nd 3rd 4th.... removed 100x and so on. Your generation names are predetermined just like your last name, but not too many people follow them .However it is still pretty common practice to share a name between your siblings not necessarily from your family tree order.
Love the 4minute song 'What's your name'
Love from india🇮🇳💜💜💜💜
미나크쉬 가네쉬 is your name?
I always had this doubt and u cleared it now!!!!!!!!!
KEEP ROCKING!!!!💜
보라해 언니💜💜💜💜💜💜💜
This helped me out so much, pronunciations is something I need to learn when I'm traveling to different countries
Thank you so much for this lesson! I didn't know all of that! Very interesting!
You are very nice, beautiful, cute and funny. You teach very well!
Oh I much prefer those authentic Korean names! Sounds more beautiful (and easier to pronounce).
My lovely unnie.
You always make korean fun and easy ❤️❤️
While watching this, i went through the list of my Korean friends on Kakao Talk and started to analyze their names ... now i know everything hahaha Very informative video Unnie (even though i'm older than you hahaha ) I'm also a teacher. An English teacher who's learning Korean to help improve my teaching quality in Korea.. You are doing an amazing job ! Keep it up !!
You’re so beautiful and funny. Love this lesson. 감사합니다 💜

Okay I found the beautiy of Korean unnie and it is yoga ,superb Unnie like this always be healthy pretty and beautiful 🤗
5:29 i think shes talking about my love from the star! love that
That was quite interesting.
Being interested in kpop since 2012, the names of artists now make more sense.
Her hanja handwriting is so pretty😍
4:06 she's beautiful.
In Bavaria, family name comes first too: Hinterreiter, Johann
We had a Korean kid in school called Hyunji Kim. I read somewhere that Koreans didnt have family names until recently. Only rich and royalty had family names and commoners just had one name or maybe a clan name.
I heard the same thing... something back in the Goryo days, to hide yourself as a commoner you just inherit the largest clan names.
Then Japan happened, and most people's last names got shrekt in the documentation.
Hello eonnie! Today that I am not jimin , I want to express my gratitude towards you !
Thank you so much , it is because of you I can fluently read hangul and learn and expand my vocabulary of Korean words !
You are our QUEEN haha💃🏻💎💜
Take care of your health (both mentally and physically)
Sending so much love !
Also I would like to see content like this - As I have read and got to know things about Korea , most people do surgery and beauty is an imp factor..... so what are pros and cons of being there if you are black or you know just don't fit KOREAN BEAUTY Standards....
I am thinking of settling in Korea and audition just wanted

Ancient Turkic names are also like that. The family name comes first then the given name.
For example "An Lu Shan" 阿犖山. "An" is the family name "Lu & Shan" is the given name.
"An Yan Yan" 安延偃
"An Sis Hun" 安思順
"Sho To Ku"
I don't know if this is Strictly East Asian or North East culture.
very interesting
That's Ahn Yeon-eon & Ahn Sah-soon in Korean. Are you Turk? Did you learn their names in school? 阿犖山 is A Lak-san in Korean. It just reminds me of Alexan..
@@alessandrovialpando609 I study ancient history and Asian linguistics at a university in the US.
@@TwitchingEye747 That's so cool, dude. Btw I'm always wondering if Huns were actually Xiongnu or not. And also wondering about Tatar & Jurchen, Magyar & Mohe, Bulgar & Buyeo. I know I sound crazy but just wanna know if you guys think there is any relation between those names.
'돌궐(Nomadic peoples in Mongolia)', an ancestor of Turkey, was an alliance with Goguryeo, an ancient Korean dynasty, and human exchanges were active between them
Yeah it's really fun and interesting
I love this video format, and this topic was so informative. Thank you!!!!
Chu mi na character name in hospital playlist is eun jin. It's my current favourite korean drama. It's really relatable for med students like myself
Your great teacher and your pretty ma'am unnie 감사합니다 🙂🙂.
Lots of love for my super cute Unnie 😍😍😍😍
It was amazing !
Well I knew the concept but thank you for explaining it in detail 😊
Haha I'm glad to see you so happy after yoga 🥰 laughing at your own jokes and all, I laughed too! ☺️ I've been wondering about the school bullying situation ever since I got into all things Korean, is it really that severe? I mean, to an outsider everything in Kpop and Kdramas looks so cute, but then we hear these stories they are the complete opposite. I was reminded because you mentioned that girl changing her name. I don't know if you've talked about it in a video.
Sorreh folks, I'm in love with the teacher :)))))
Thank you so much for this video! It was super informative and you explained it so well! 😊 First Video of yours I’ve ever watched but I’ll probably be coming back for more! 😁
Her outfit is smashing. just throwing that out there!
I'm so jealous of her gorgeousness and this outfit suits her so perfectly
Your videos are fabulous I randomly found your channel and now I am a fan of you I would always like to meet you loads of love❤️❤️😊😊😇
