LEARN THROUGH STORIES · TORI’S DIARY
A new day. A little more Korean.
On the night before leaving home, Tori packs a carrot marked 용기: courage. She is heading to a new city and learning how to find her voice in Korean.
The 90-day diary connects story context, vocabulary, dialogue, grammar, output and review. Ninety days describes the story’s structure, not a promise about how quickly you will learn.
Begin with a first introduction
In the public day-one excerpt, Tori practises a greeting in front of a mirror. Understand what she wants to say, then look at the words and expression she uses.
안녕하세요. 토리예요.
Hello. I’m Tori.
저는 토리예요.
I’m Tori.
Return to a scene more than once
Read the situation, explore the vocabulary and dialogue, then revisit the grammar explanation. Finally, change one sentence to use your own name, place or feeling. It is fine to divide a lesson across several sessions.
- Read the story: understand what is happening.
- Study an expression: keep its sentence and context.
- Try output: write or say a version of your own.
- Review later: check what you can recall without looking.
Write a small diary of your own
You do not need to write an essay. Start with one event, one feeling and something you want to do next. Practice sentences in our guides are original teaching examples, not quotations from the diary course.
