Korean Cassette Pack

Rating:
Summary: Never buy a phrasebook
Review: Comprehensive as a phrasebook, but of little value otherwise. Buy only if you have some incredible power to commit to memory long sequences of sounds that have no grammatical meaning to you. Some of my other frustrations : (1) The cassette tape has no pronounciation guide - sheesh ! (2) The book's romanization is horrible.

Summary: Choose something else
Review: I found this set (book and cassette) to be quite useless. There are things on the cassette which are not found in the book! The narrator on the cassette speaks in a condescending manner and the corny music is a complete distraction. I returned this set for a refund!

Summary: Never buy a phrasebook
Review: The expressions, and phrases in the book are rather too formal and outdated. They probably want you to sound polite when you visit Korea, but this is simply not a real life talking style. The book gives a better introduction about the country Korea itself, than teaching you the language.
