Hey there...just trying to learn a bit more Korean food products. Could someone translate the calorie box that starts out with "yung yang sung bun". (and also let me know what that means!):

It's for learning, not eating. |

영양성분 - nutrition ingredients
열양 - calories (beware: sometimes this refers to serving size, not the calories in the whole package)
탄수화물 - carbohydrates
당류 - sugars
단백질 - protein
지방 - fat
포화지방 - non-transfat (unsaturated? polyunsaturated? Anyway it's the opposite of transfat)
트렌스지방 - trans fat
콜레스트럴 - cholesterol
나트륨 - nitrium
칼슘 - calcium
You'll see that 지방 (fat) appears 3 times so memorize that one.
Cholesterol, nitrium and calcium are all phonetic English i.e. if you can read 한글 and say the words out loud you'll realize you're actually speaking English^^ |

Someone just did your homework for you.
Next time, try Daum or Naver dictionaries and learn how to type Hangul. |

| I think 나트륨 is actually sodium. "Natrium" is the old latin name ffor sodium. |

Useless advice. I'm not in Korea, nor do I have a Korean keyboard. If I was in Korea, I would have done it by myself. |

| If you have windows on your computer, you can type Korean on your keyboard...no more homework goodies for you...google it. Here's a hint: Start your search with the question, "How do I..." and go from there. |

Ugh. Okay, here's your homework. As you're not in Korea yet, learn this stuff, and then open your mind a bit. Asking for help and then tossing aside advice with openings like "Useless advice..." doesn't get you useful advice in the future.

Duh..I have already lived in Korea... if you read my OP and saw how I know Hangul, you'd understand what was going on. Knowing an alphabet doesn't mean someone is fluent in a language.
Thanks Shaggy  |

I heard that through the magic of the internet you don't have to be in Korea to access Korean websites. Try it! |
