FINALLY!

This Korean dictionary is by far the best one I’ve ever used!

It’s has context (& sentences) for the words plus it shows words from most commonly used to most obscure!

If you search “fan” you would easily be able to find which word is for “fan” (as in an electric fan) & “fan” (as in a fan of something, “I’m a fan of jazz”) because of the sentences used!

(True story since I once searched “fan” in the naver dictionary and it gave me “판“ which is Konglish for being a fan of something. I guess I really had to clarify.. ㅋㅋ)

Anyways.. this dictionary is easy & clear! The interface is simple & to the point, so it’s a recommend from me! :D
