Interesting...I didn't realize they had a TV show. How are you acquiring your Korean TV material? Satellite? (I've noticed DirecTV has several of the big Korean networks.) Torrents / download sites? Streaming sites? 1 person has voted this message useful | |||

Hey CZ,
Even though there are some days that you don't really have time to practice it looks as if you are actually putting in at least a little time each day to study. Good Job! I think it will yield positive results. 1 person has voted this message useful | |||

Warp3: Have you ever heard of allkpop? They link to YouTube videos when they have a news update on a reality show for a Kpop group. So, YouTube until they get taken down, mysoju, DramaFever(<<---this is the only legal site), and d-addicts for the dramas. I don't get foreign network with my satelitte, so it's all computer for me.
Shadow: Thanks. Yeah, when I lumped my studying together, it just set me back to square one, so doing something everyday is good for me. Edited by The Real CZ on 12 December 2009 at 2:03pm 1 person has voted this message useful | |||

I've heard of mysoju (only recently, though) and d-addicts, but not the other two.
Most of my video material has come from http://yoobin-hq.skyrock.com/ so far. She uploads mostly music performances (usually in 1920x1080 TS/TP format), but there are some videos like http://yoobin-hq.skyrock.com/2373426055-KARA-SNSD-Come-2-Pla y-Live-2009-03-23-8-52-GB.html (which is just over an hour long and is nearly all dialog) and various KBS Sketchbook and SBS Chocolate episodes (which usually have interview sections) that I've found immensely useful for dialog listening practice. It wasn't long before I found myself buying a Megaupload Premium account (all her videos are hosted on Megaupload) and a huge external HDD after finding that site...hehe :) 1 person has voted this message useful | |||

Korean
Vocab Today: 50 words This week: 175 This month: 237 Scriptorium Today: 0 sentences This week: 83 This month: 184 Japanese Vocab Today: 5 words This week: 53 This month: 98 Scriptorium Today: 0 sentences This week: 48 This month: 94 Kanji Today: 20 kanji This week: 65 This month: 65 Listened to Japanese Pod 101 Beginner Season 1 Lessons 81 and 82. Biggest accomplishment was a 50 vocab day in Korean. Since I had work today, my mind just stops worrying about studying and focuses on getting as much "fun" in as possible, so I spent a lot of the day listening to music. Eun Ji Won (G-One) - Siren I was addicted to this song today. Good stuff. Yeah, I did no grammar study today. I'll probably do that first thing after vocab and kanji review tomorrow. I also chatted with two Koreans this morning...100% in English. I think I'll need to try to make an active push to use Korean, even if it's 5-10% of the conversation for now. That's better than 0. I haven't used Korean in a while, actually. I've chatted with some Japanese people in the past, but my Japanese ability overall is low, my listening probably being my best ability (I can make out most of the things said, but my vocab is extremely weak at the moment.) Tomorrow should be a good day, and I can finally make time to watch some dramas. Just some of my day will be working on the car and watching the Cowboys vs Chargers game. -- Warp: Thanks for the links. I'll be sure to check them out. A lot of the popular shows do get uploaded onto YouTube, but you have to watch them as soon as they come out, since accounts last 2 months at the most for those uploaders. 1 person has voted this message useful | |||

Wait...he's a singer? I recognized the name because he is on that show I linked to above and I've seen him in other videos (mostly doing brief interviews of music groups and in a short excerpt where he was co-presenting at an awards show with Im Yoon A from SNSD), but I never realized he was a performer as well (when the only thing I really saw him doing in videos was interviewing, I just assumed that's what he did). Now, you've got me wondering who the other three guys in that video are. 1 person has voted this message useful | |||

Yeah, I didn't know Eun Ji Won was a rapper either, since I first saw him in variety programs too (Hello Baby as the dad of the day, Intimate Note, etc.) He was part of the group Sechskies, where he was the leader and main rapper, and when the group disbanded, he became part of The Movement (rapping movement that includes groups and people such as Drunken Tiger, Epik High, LeeSsang, T(Yoon Mi Rae), etc. Edited by The Real CZ on 13 December 2009 at 3:05pm 1 person has voted this message useful |
