I was plonking around on the web and ran across this interesting thought, mentioned on my own blog but I thought I could crosspost it here for those interested. It’s a post on a blog by The Linguist about cross-training as a useful practice in language study. I don’t know if it’s true, but I’m curious about what the more expert foreigners-who-speak-Korean-well have to say about it (as well as anyone who’s studied langauges of any kind of a long time). By the way, you might want to poke around the whole of The Linguist on Language’s blog… it seems that he too is studying Korean. 

UPDATE: Aha, and he’s got a link in his blogroll to the main Blinger site. Hmmm. Maybe that connection was what led me to his site in the first place? Hmmm.

1. I am looking for good audio content in Korean. I do not mean learning texts or textbook texts. I mean something on history, or business or even literature. I would like to have both the audio and the etext. This will help me work on my Korean. Any suggests of sites that could help me.

2. Whoops I left a typo in the previous text. Suggests should read suggestions. Sorry.

   There are a couple of places I can suggest, although they don’t fit your exact specifications. Consider them a starting point.

   1. At least two sections of KBS World Radio have audio accompanying the text. They are Tour and Best of Korea. There may be others. No registration is required.

   2. Dramas frequently post scripts along with VODs. An example can be found at 열여덟 스물아홉. Registration is required to view VODs and is available to foreigners. One pitfall is that scripts may not always follow the program. However, they usually do, and they can be a useful tool.

   You’ll have better luck with KBS (radio or television) in IE, rather than Firefox.
