베트남어 의미가 없어서 너무 어려워요

Doesn't feel that beginner friendly

I really agree with starfire116, it teaches you a long phrase without teaching you the basics of it. I really think that if it had some literal translations I'd be able to understand a LOT better and actually be able to identify what each word alone means, or if it taught you more slowly, teaching each word step by step. I wasn't really sure what each word meant so it was a bit hard to follow. That's really the only problem for me. Maybe it'd be better for someone who's at least conversational in Korean and wants to brush up on their skills, but I'm not so this isn't really my favorite app. It was a good idea though, and it's pretty, it just could've been set up better.

bugs

I can't read NCT's vocabulary book again. Please restore it as soon as possible. Specifically, the nct vocabulary disappeared at Word. The video cannot be played even if the qr code of the text is read in.

thank you

Thank you so much for fixing the bug. I’m really glad because now I can finally study using the NCT vocabulary deck. I truly appreciate your sincere support. I was also deeply impressed that I could now watch videos of other idols as well. However, there is a serious issue with your support team. I have never received a reply when I contacted them. It was only after I left a review on Apple that I finally got a response. I believe this is something that needs improvement. Otherwise, we are left with no choice but to leave a low rating just to get a bug fixed.

My first ever Review for app

As a Vietnamese living in Korea, I’ve tried many apps to learn Korean — and KOKIRI is by far my favorite!

I love how it uses real Korean content like dramas and variety shows to teach the language. It makes learning much more fun and practical. I also appreciate how the app explains grammar and expressions in a clear and simple way, and the quizzes help me remember what I learned.

Thanks to KOKIRI, I feel more confident speaking Korean in my daily life. Highly recommend this app to anyone learning Korean — especially if you love K-culture!

Not useful

I bought an nct vocabulary book and tried to study with this app, but this app has a system error forever, so I can't watch any videos of NCT vocabulary book. Also, even if I report system errors many times, there is no reply and no response, and it is an unfaithful app. A month after the report, no renovations have been seen. What are you running this app for? have a user who wants to use but doesn't respond sincerely at all

qr App Store loop

scanning the QR codes in the complimentary books (NCT Korean Vocabulary) on iPhone loops you through the App Store and won’t open any of the videos. I tried everything to fix this, but nothing worked. Then my husband tried with his Galaxy and it worked. I hope this gets fixed soon.

Great App; Some Bugs

Overall, this app is great and provides a good resource for learning Korean.

However, there is an issue with the mix in speaking exercises. It either won’t stop loading when “evaluating a response”, or it will say it “can’t hear you”.

There are also some display issues where words can get cut off, particularly in the daily quiz and video interface.

Some videos also have difficultly playing sometimes.

Besides that, the app is wonderful and works just fine.

Great App, Small Annoying Glitches

I love this app so far, it’s a good way for me to practice my korean when i don’t have any korean friends. That being said, the mic is SO glitchy. I think it got worse after the recent “bug fixes” update

Response from developer

Hello. We would like to first apologize for the inconvenience. We also internally checked the issue with speaking lesson. We will do our best to solve this issue within this week. Please don't hesitate to let us know any shortcomings and we will address them. Thank you.

I like it but it needs adjustments

The app is nice, I’ve learned a lot with it, but it has problems with the buttons for the mic and the buttons for the practice parts that come in with the videos. It never saves my progress, neither my lessons and it not letting me practice with exercises like I used to do before. I paid the premium subscription and I expected to use the app without having any problems like those.

button to speak doesn’t work

this app is nice however it seems like it expects you to already know korean and makes you repeat a long phrase without teaching basics. I can’t complete any levels because the button you need to press to speak doesn’t work. my mic is on and i hit allow, not sure how to fix it

Hello there! Thank you for your review. We're going to introduce new features and content soon, so keep an eye out for it. Thank you!

Can’t fast forward easily or back

Love the app but basic features are missing which make me want to delete it. You can’t fast forward it back easily like a normal YouTube video and you can’t copy the words and make a note of them elsewhere.
Sometimes I have to finish the whole video to go back and watch the bit I want again when a scroll is needed. Please introduce it
