While I like �ٴټҸ� bada sori (sound of the sea),
mok sori - ��Ҹ� voice, or literally neck sound, is a little weird.
bada gogi - �ٴٰ��� fish, or literally sea meat is pretty horrible too.

Any konglish. It makes otherwise sophiscated korean speakers sound utterly childish to a native english speaker. |

most words with a double consonant, as it is unnatural to pronounce. |

Would that include "����"? My least favourite word . "�ٺ�" is a close second. Way overused by the kiddies. |

���?!?!?!?!
Drove me nuts hearing that last year.
My favorite Korean word isn't really a word, but a place name:
��Ƽ����
I have no idea why. Maybe some linguist could figure it out. I like it even better than "cellar door."  |

No, but that thing was mentioned in the movie Donnie Darko, so maybe it's mentioned there.
Ah...I Googled it. Apparently she doesn't mention any names, just "a British author" but apparently the author is either Poe, or more likely Tolkien. Or HL Mencken. But neither he nor Poe are British. Hmmm....
Must be Tolkien she was talking about.
