I'm looking to buy a book and CD (not tape) to help me learn Korean. I have books with no CD and am struggling with pronunciation.

Anyone got something they want to sell, or maybe recommend a language kit that I can buy new?

Thanks,

Have you tried looking in a bookstore? They all seem to have learning Korean books and all seem to have CDs.

Easier said than done. I live in the boonies; there are no English books sold in any of the towns and I'm not familiar with the big city bookstores.

Which is why I'm posting here.

i've got 2 books: "Korean in 100 hours" and "Korean for Foreigners." the second one comes with a CD. both seem pretty good for self-study, but i'm that type of person really, so they've been collecting dust. if you want em, name a price and we can negotiate.

Thanks for the message.

The second book with the CD sounds just the ticket, but I haven't a clue what it is worth. Do you have a price in mind? Wanna PM me with a ballpark?

Cheers,

can't remember. bought it a year ago. probably somewhere in the 20s range tho. i'll sell it to you for 15K. i gotta find one of the CDs tho. misplaced it. if i can't find it and u still want it, i'll shoot u a discount. lemme know if that works for u.

If you have the CD's then sure, that sounds fine. Add shipping and you've got a deal. Dunno if I want it without the CD though - I have some language books already without CD's. Let me know if you can find it; we'll go from there.
