My Daughter loves K-Pop and she absolutely loved this gift!!! Hands down if your teens are child is into K-Pop great gift!!

I won't judge you, cause I was here for the same exact thing. XD I began learning Korean in July 2018. So it's been a bit over a year now. When I 1st saw this, I figured it'd be convenient as a new fan of Kpop artists, but I wasn't sure about it as there seemed to be other books like this. However, one of my fave YouTubers (Whitneybae) whose lived in South Korea for almost 10 years recommended this and its sequel & speaks the language pretty well herseld, so I trusted her. The book is a pretty nice book! If you're fresh in the Kpop world, it has clean explanations of words commonly heard from Kpop stars, and naturally, words/phrases in Korean in general. If you're new to Kpop or studying Korean, it's not a bad buy (especially if you fit both). My only problem with it is that I feel like the few English words/phrases weren't necessary to add due to them existing outside of Kpop since forever (ex: Fan service, OST, manner hands, etc). There's not a lot of them tho, so I can't really complain. Keep in mind that this is literally meant to be a dictionary for KPOP. While you may learn Korean words written in 한글, romanized for pronunciation, and given a proper explanation, these are only 500, and are mostly related to the industry. While you can use this to practice writing Hangul characters and ultimately learn Korean words/slang, please do not expect to become anywhere near fluent with this book alone. It is convenient, it will be helpful, but you'll still need to find other sources to study the language - starting with the Hangul characters! Now, I wish you all the best with learning and exploring this music genre! 화이팅! ㅅ.ㅅ

Got this for my K pop loving friend. She loved it tho I don’t have a clue what the draw is lol

It was an interesting purchase, I bought it for my 11 year old daughter for Christmas, but I did look at it a bit. My daughter loves BTS. I thought maybe it would help her understand more of the language. Its fun, it gives you explanations of korean slang terms the kpop world uses, etc.

A helpful dictionary for those seeking to delve into the world of K-Pop.

First impressions: MUCH smaller than expected. Cover of the book has a nice look and feel. Upon opening the book I was immediately met with glue on the inner pinning of the book. I also hear a slight tearing sound which makes me nervous that the pages are eventually gonna fall out of the book itself. When looking through book: some words are song names or English words. Which tells me they didn’t have a lot of actually substance to put into the book itself. Kinda like they promised 500 but could only come up with 200 good ones that actually teach you something. The words in this book are also things people don’t say in normal life. So if you are using this book to learn Korean, PLEASE remember that this book is JUST slang and term used within the K-pop world. Don’t expect anything different. Over all view: this is a very cute book that can teach people k-pop slang, but a lot of you will already know just by being a fan of the genre. This is a cute little book to give to the teenager in your family that is OBSESSED with everything Korean and has a slightly warped view on the culture and language. (I mean that in the most innocent way I can) BUT if you are a serious learner or want to learn something useful this is not the book for you. None of the conversations have any 한글! So you are learning in romanization. I wish you the best of luck in you learning endeavors! Thanks for taking the time to ready my review!

My son is a big K-pop fan he loves it!

Bought as a gift for k-pop obsessed family member. She loves it.

Was bought as Christmas present but teenager v impressed

C'est amusant mais je trouve qu'il est un peu cher pour ce qu'il est. peut-etre pas le cas pour les fans...
