Everything Korea vs KIIP Study

Learn Korean from the first letter, and everything about Korea along the way. HANGUL IN A WEEK Build real syllables from tiles, hear every letter, watch the stroke order, and read famous names as soon as you know their letters. FROM ZERO TO TOPIK 6 A five-minute placement test finds your level. Conversations you can act out, grammar with easy, intermediate and advanced examples, 11,000 graded words with audio, number drills, and practice sets for TOPIK I, TOPIK II and Korea’s integration programme (KIIP), including the speaking test. HOLD ANY WORD Press and hold any Korean word in the app to see its dictionary form, meaning and pronunciation. A KOREAN LEVEL ON EVERY ARTICLE Every article and every place is marked TOPIK level 1 to 6: the Korean you need to read its Korean side without a dictionary. The pieces you can read tell you where your Korean stands, and a page in Learn explains each level. KOREA, TOLD WELL Five thousand years of history, the flag and the anthem, kimchi and table manners, the subway and the holidays, universities, and life in Korea for new residents. Read or listen in your language, in Korean, or both side by side. TRAVEL 196 places on a map of every province. Browse by interest (palaces, temples and churches, hikes, walks, the sea, markets, UNESCO sites) or by the month of your trip. Every place says how to get there, and hikes come with trail cards. Suggested routes, industrial tours, driving and toll roads, and a phrasebook you can show to a Korean, with an emergency card. IN YOUR LANGUAGE The screens, the Hangul course, conversations and grammar, every article and the whole of Travel are in English, Japanese, Vietnamese and Chinese (Simplified and Traditional). REAL KOREAN Slang and texting shorthand explained with their origins, so you understand dramas and films. For learners 13 and over. FREE FOR EVERYONE No account, no subscription, nothing locked. One small banner ad keeps the app running. Your progress stays on your phone. Everything Korea is an independent app, not affiliated with or endorsed by NIIED (TOPIK), the Ministry of Justice (KIIP) or any other organisation named in it.

KIIP Study helps foreign residents in Korea prepare for the Ministry of Justice Social Integration Program (사회통합프로그램 / KIIP) exams. Passing them earns F-2-7 points, exempts you from the Korean requirement for F-5 permanent residency, and waives the language part of naturalization. PRACTICE WITH EXAM-STYLE QUESTIONS Questions written to match the format of the placement test, the mid-term (KLCT), and the comprehensive exam (KIPRAT for permanent residency, KINAT for naturalization), organized by level. Level 5 covers the permanent residency and naturalization tracks separately. WHY YOU GOT IT WRONG, IN YOUR LANGUAGE KIIP textbooks and Ministry of Justice materials are written in Korean only, so if your Korean isn't strong yet, you can see the right answer but not the reason. KIIP Study explains every question in 16 languages: why the correct answer is correct, and where your answer went wrong. SEE WHERE YOU'RE WEAK Your answers are grouped by topic and scored, so you can see exactly which subjects you keep missing, and drill those first. THE VOCABULARY THE EXAMS USE Most Korean apps (Duolingo, generic Anki decks, TOPIK textbooks) teach conversational or TOPIK-focused words that barely overlap with KIIP exam vocabulary. KIIP Study is built on the Ministry of Justice's official KIIP textbooks (한국어와 한국문화), from Level 1 to Level 5. Five question types (multiple choice, fill-in-the-blank, dictation, listen-and-type, and picture choice) rotate automatically, so you never see the same word the same way twice. WHO THIS IS FOR ◆ Level 1–2 beginners: you just registered for the placement test (사전평가) and don't know where to start. ◆ F-2-7 points seekers: Level 5 = 20 language points + 10 completion bonus (80/120 to qualify). Unlike TOPIK, KIIP certificates do not expire. ◆ F-5 PR & naturalization: Level 5 exempts you from the Korean requirement for most F-5 tracks, and waives the naturalization test and interview. ◆ F-6 marriage migrants: Level 2 meets the Korean requirement for F-6 renewal; Level 4 qualifies you for the F-5-2 PR track.

A 38,000-won placement test sets your starting level. Levels 1–4 are Korean language; Level 5 is Korean society and history. WHAT THIS IS NOT The questions here are practice items written to match the exam format, not actual past exam papers. This is not a grammar or speaking course; pair it with the official KIIP classes and workbook. You pass KIIP exams at 60 percent. Aim for 60, not 100.
