#37: Summer Drop Series_Kat’s Korean Habit

This week, Eliza shares the story of Kat, a student from New York, and how she stays gently connected to Korean in her everyday routine — even with a busy work schedule.

No pressure. No long study blocks.
Just small, consistent moments that make Korean feel like part of her real life — not just a subject.

In This Episode:

  • Kat’s 3-step daily Korean rhythm (no “studying” required)
  • Why one sentence a day can be enough
  • Easy phrases you can whisper to yourself — and still improve
  • Vocabulary highlights from Kat’s story

Vocab Highlights:

  • 혼잣말로 말하다 — to speak to oneself
  • 입모양으로 따라 하다 — to mouth or repeat quietly
  • 야경 — night view
