The Curious Korean Blogs

My name is CK and I am a Korean Filipino. I moved to America at the age of 3 and have been raised in a Filipino American household my entire life. Now that I'm getting older I want to learn more about my Korean background. Follow me on my journey to discover more about myself and my identity!

Note To Self

Korean consonants and vowels are pretty interesting. First of all, things that you take for granted in the English language like spacing and phonics are not to be taken lightly in Hangul. At least for right now its pretty hard to read stuff like 젵. I can sound out each one individually though. Well vowel combinations still need working on.

First post

Well let’s see how this blogging thing goes. I wanted to start a blog to kind of document my journey into my Korean background. I’m excited because I’ve never really learned much about it. I’m actually learning Korean right now from a wonderful tutor who recently immigrated to America. Here’s hoping!
