The most critical vocabulary to learn Korean

Refold is focused on teaching you to understand real Korean. The biggest obstacle to understanding a language is vocabulary. We created this deck so you can learn the most important words as fast as possible.

When you finish this deck, you’ll have the knowledge and confidence you need to understand about 85% of Korean dramas and YouTube videos. Before you know it, you’ll be watching K-dramas and LOVING them.

Optimized for your learning

About 99% of the sentences in this deck introduce only one thing: either a new word or a useful grammar point. You will never feel overwhelmed by there being too many new things on one card. Best of all, when you are done with this deck you’ll know exactly what kind of sentences to look for when making your own cards in Anki.

Grammar AND Vocab?

In addition to the amazing features that learners love in our other decks, we added grammar tips to our KO1K deck! This allows you to learn grammar in context alongside new vocabulary.

Korean grammar can be challenging, but the grammar knowledge you get from the KO1K will make understanding TV shows or books a lot easier.

Preguntas frecuentes

  • Do I need to study additional grammar if I use this deck?

    You do not need to study additional grammar if you use this deck. This deck will teach you the basic grammar you need to get started enjoying Korean TV shows and movies. You can pick up the rest by just listening to and reading a lot of Korean media content.

  • Couldn't I build my own deck?

    Yep! It just takes time, energy, and effort. The Korean deck took our team of data scientists, high-level Korean learners, and Korean natives about 150 hours to create. We’ve done the hard work so you don’t have to.

  • Why shouldn't I use Duolingo?

    If it’s your first time studying a language, then you probably should.

    Duolingo is a language-learning video game. It’s a great way to try out a language to see if you like it and to build a daily habit of engaging with the language.

    Unfortunately, it doesn’t get you very far, and definitely won’t help you understand Korean.

  • Aren't there free decks available?

    Yep! But they have a few problems:

    1. They aren’t focused on helping you understand TV shows and casual conversation.
    2. They haven’t filtered out the “easy words”.
    3. They don’t have native audio.
    4. The example sentences (if they even have any) are crowdsourced and usually low quality.

  • Will this make me fluent?

    NO! This just builds the initial foundation for understanding Korean. Fluency comes after thousands of hours spent with the language.

  • What content should I consume with the deck?
