Scope boundaries
- Introductory pre-A1/A1-oriented interaction only; not fluency, interpretation, translation, TOPIK or SKA certification, complete Hangul mastery, or professional-language qualification

- Complete greeting, introduction, and communication-repair performances
- Correct meaning, script, particle, speech-level, and interaction errors in a final portfolio
Full self-paced route
- Hangul, greetings, and sound-awareness lesson with qualified-speaker audio
- Polite identity and information lesson
