I'm not sure, tbh. ^^ I'd assume symbols. And I actually have one of those programs that comes with a headset, with a voice saying a word and having me repeat it, letting me know if I said it right or not! I also have two books for learning basic stuff like colors and how to write the symbols. I'm just way too lazy to begin doing it myself, which is why I've applied to a course (online course even, so my lazy ass won't have to move one inch!)
And since I don't know what to do with my life, I'm thinking about going to Japan to study the language there. Awesome swedish system-thingies helps you out money-wise when it comes to studying in another country. But I'll probably have to work a fair bit first anyway. One of the schools that some swedish company have set up some deal with is placed in Akihabara, hell yes!
A few days?! Brb looking up the Korean alphabet.
