Hello, this is PHconlab.✨

The Korean Wave in media has sparked a growing passion for learning the Korean language.
Here’s a way to make Korean easier, more enjoyable, and immediately applicable to your everyday life.
That is, learning Korean phrases through media overlays.

Introducing the Media Overlay E-book.

A media overlay e-book pairs audio narration with text, highlighting each sentence in sync with the audio as it plays.

PHconlab’s media overlay e-book is available in three languages.

When you’re just starting out in Korean, use the Korean-English version to pick up sentence structures and vocabulary.
When you want to focus on listening, switch to the English-only version — let your ears get used to Korean without the pressure of reading along.
Once you’re comfortable with Korean, try the Korean-only version to absorb native expressions and natural intonation.

Explore the Korean words used in the performance e-book <Will you please wait a little bit?> through korean phrases cards.
Written and recorded by native Korean speakers, this is your gateway to a fresh new way of learning Korean through new media.
