Talk it out: Speak with Horang and Sora
Reading Korean is one thing. Saying it out loud is another. With Speak, you can now practice real conversations by voice, at your own pace, with no one judging your mistakes.
Pick a scene and start talking
Speak puts you in everyday situations: ordering at a café, taking a taxi, chatting at a corner store, or even a K-drama rooftop confession. You play yourself, and one of our two characters plays the other part.
Meet Horang and Sora
Horang is a patient tutor with tiger ears who keeps things clear and simple. Sora is a countryside girl who just moved to Seoul and is figuring out the city right alongside you. Pick whoever fits your mood.
How it works
- Pick a scene. Choose a situation and who you want to talk to.
- Allow your microphone and just talk. Speak Korean the way you would in real life. Short answers are fine.
- Get help in English anytime. If you are stuck, ask for a hint or a translation, and save new phrases to review later.
Words you have saved in Hanbok come up in your conversations too, so you get to use them out loud, not just see them on flashcards.

It's in beta
Speak is brand new, and live voice is tricky to get right. After every call you can tell us how it went. If something broke (the call dropped, they couldn't hear you, the words on screen were wrong), tell us what happened and we'll give you that call's minutes back. We read every report.
Give it a try
A five-minute call is a great way to start. Tell us how it goes, we are improving Speak every week.
