Great app, worth the $$

I think this is a great app for korean learners who are advanced beginners on up. I wouldn't recommend it for true beginners. But once one has a basic vocabulary and some basic grammar structures down, it's awesome. I have worked up from level one to level five. Five more levels to go! The quality of the stories is good and I think they are written by human beings. There's high-quality voice actors also. Highly recommend!!

Used to be amazing for reading korean practice. But turned into subscription based game app. Should have made two seperate apps instead of changing everything.
