Korean is generally considered to be a language isolate (that is, it has no relationships to any other languages). It also has more speakers than all other language isolates combined.

I've always found that interesting because it has nearly the exact same grammar structure as Japanese, and I've learned in my university classes that up to 25% of Korean words are cognates with Japanese words. With that evidence, it's hard for me to believe they're not related, but I haven't done enough study into it to make a claim either way.

I disagree. The korean alphabet is much simpler than the roman alphabet, and the roman alphabet is actually pretty bad for writing most of the languages that use him today (english: 12 vowels, roman alphabet: 5 vowels.)

It is, but that's not the point. Learning a whole new writing system at an older age is what it makes much more difficult. And most European languages are very similar.

Huh. Apparently Stephano was good at the beginning and thought that he was plateauing.

Can you source that? I thought korean was an altaic language (tied with mongol, some centralasian languages, and turkish to some extent)

http://www.ethnologue.com/language/kor

My linguistics professors all told us to use this site as a source, so I think it's pretty legit.

Obvious sample bias in that system.
