if one approaches learning korean with the 3 things mentioned in the OP, how long do you think it would take to become at least competent in READING korean?


everything depends on the individual - your intelligence, the amount of time you put into it everyday, memorization skills, etc etc. Learning how to read Korean itself is actually incredibly easy, at least compared to english where one word could potentially be pronounced 253214 different ways whereas there is pretty much only one given way to pronounce most korean words. The hard part is learning the syntax, vocab, etc

I've just recently started learning Korean. This will probably be my last 'free' summer, so I've decided that's how I'm going to spend it. I'm Korean American, but only my grandparents spoke it regularly. I learned a small amount when I was younger from them, but nothing that's helped me too much now.
I've always wanted to learn a second language and decided to learn Korean for a few reasons. The obvious is because I'm half Korean, but more importantly my Grandparents immigrated here in the 60s. My Grandfather has since passed, but my Grandma is still living and she's very proud of her Korean heritage.

I'd like to learn as much as possible on my own, and surprise her. I'm exhausting everyone online resource I can find, and I've even gotten Korean Rosetta Stone. I only hear bad things about it, even personally from a friend who had to learn Chinese BUT, I feel that i'm getting something from it. They throw a lot of random things at you, but there are still things to be learned from it.
Here's to learning Korean! :D

So guys how do you practice your korean/learn new vocabulary? These translated interviews with players seem like a good read for me to learn new words...
I dunno if this topic is the right one, maybe there is another one more suitable for my question.

I'm 14 and hope to learn fluent Korean by the time I'm 20. Will starting at this age help or hinder me? :/ Probably going to be 2 hours a day or so unless I have a ton of exams to revise for.

Sorry for bumping an old thread but this seems to be the only won that hasn't been closed.

I don't think there is much difference when you start. Though I doubt you will be spending 2 hours each day on this matter, but anyway, good luck! I have started learning korean somewhere an year ago, and I am at the age of 20 right now. Maybe we will meet someday in Korea, at something like MSL or OSL finals, and we will talk to eachother in fluent korean. Lol, jk jk jk.
