I was looking around on Itunes and I found this big mp3 for learning Korean vocabulary called Vocabulearn: Korean, Parts 1 and 2. Anybody ever used this? I guess it was orginally some audio tapes. With its cheesy name I don't have high hopes for it, but I'd like an mp3 with Korean vocabulary to listen to on the go.

Specifically, what kind of words does it have? could you give some examples? and how many words does it have? Information about part 2 would be especially helpful.

I bought levels 1 & 2 but haven't really used them enough to make a comment on there usefulness. I will say that a lot of the expressions are in the higher forms of polite speech. Depending on your level you could easily change them into more commonly used verb endings... or not.

It says there are 1500 words on each level.. Building vocab is not easy, but I really need some concrete mental image or context to learn new words, not just listening to the ajumma on the tape reading them out.
