This is a new website that is supposed to be for more advanced Korean learners. It
provides native Korean content, and then notes of the vocab and grammar as well as a
translation to help understand it. It currently focus on Korean newspaper articles.
It tries to help people transition to learning from language learning resources, to
native content.
AdvancedKorean.com
This post is both for 'promotion' and for feedback, since no one gives any feedback on
the site. : P
Feedback of any kind would be greatly appreciated, especially since I know the people
here are generally the hardcore language learners.

I was just thinking of posting about this site, but I see Steven505 beat me to it.
This is a really good site for anyone who is at the intermediate level and is trying to start working with native newspapers and newscasts.
I look at the KBS news online every day. Some of the newscasts include transcripts, so it's really helpful. But the vocab...ugh...it's going to be a while before I can really handle Korean news all on my own. Plowing through just one article or newscast can take hours.
The Advanced Korean site features a news article (and more recently a music video and a weather telecast) and gives notes on all the vocab so you can review the vocab before reading or listening to the feature. And as you read the Korean transcript, you can click on each sentence to get a full translation into English, to check your understanding.
This is a really great site! I think if you study it on a regular basis you'll start recognizing certain words that come up again and again in news programs. The video lessons are especially helpful since it's hard to find this kind of annotated transcript for native broadcasts.

Really really good website! I was starting to stagnate and I think this is just the kind
of thing that I needed! All new content, everyday newspaper article style and as said by
Haksaeng, it is rare to find this kind of annotated transcript.
