Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Learn Korean for Beginners at none against Korean!'s 9. Learn Korean for Beginners also leads on review sentiment (71% vs 56%) and iOS requirement (9.0 vs 17.5). Korean!'s advantage is rating (4.7 vs 4.4) and ratings volume (11K vs 337). On price, ads and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Korean! sells 9 in-app purchases, starting at $0.99 per month. Learn Korean for Beginners asks for nothing beyond the download.
Korean! holds the better App Store score, 4.7 against 4.4. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Korean! has 11K ratings behind it against 337, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 56% of Korean!'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.
