Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Learn Korean for Beginners at none against Eggbun's 10. Learn Korean for Beginners also leads on review sentiment (71% vs 58%) and iOS requirement (9.0 vs 15.6). Eggbun's advantage is ratings volume (6.1K vs 338). On price, rating, ads and device support there is nothing between them.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Eggbun holds the better App Store score, 4.6 against 4.4. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Eggbun has 6.1K ratings behind it against 338, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 58% of Eggbun's written reviews are positive against 71% of Learn Korean for Beginners's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
