This book is designed to help students who have some basic knowledge of the Korean language, but who are trying to get to a higher level." "It has memory devices or 'triggers' which can help the reader remember over 200 Korean vocabulary items." "Some of these devices are 'double mnemonics,' where the student takes a basic, common Korean word, and uses it to build associations with other words and ideas."

Brian Brown is a language teacher who has taught ESL/EFL in South Korea for over two decades. He believes in using an eclectic approach to learning Korean, of which memory mnemonics is an important part.
