haha my english writing isnt even good so i stopped caring about Korean...(everythings digital anyways)

but I could see why you would want to learn. the writing done with calligraphy brushes is pretty sick, especially with mixed chinese characters.

I find typing in Chinese(Simplified) difficult for me, even with a couple of years of uninteresting Chinese classes when I was in middle school(My Chinese gradually worsens years after, speaking English 75% of the time has totally butchered it). I have a easier time learning and typing in Hangul. Of course not without cheating, pretty cheap trick but my friend uses a regular keyboard but she tapes over all the keys with the Korean alphabet.

We're calling it calligraphy now?
It's not bad, it's what you would expect from your background. Just practice like the other koreans have been saying, its a good skill to have^^.

kOre, there is no way in hell any Korean could possibly look at the "너없이 못산단" part of the last line and say that it is written "pretty good". It's extremely sloppy.

its not that bad.. it's legible which is better than my korean writing lol
GTR's looks a lot like my writing back in like 2nd/3rd grade

korean is one of those languages where accurate relative sizes of characters does wonders to change your handwriting from bad to good.

my handwriting is like that with korean

And my english looks like scribbles;;

Your strokes need to be more fluid. You can tell you were writing slow just by looking at the picture.

And your consonants are too big: ㄱ ㅌ ㅂ etc

The characters are at random angles. Keep them consistent. Either straight or slightly tilted.

Too much space between each character.

My 2 cents.
