Highlights

Learn polite Korean phrases for your Korea trip with a funny comic gamebook PDF + 20 MP3 audio tracks: restaurants, cafés, taxis, hotels and more.

Don't be rude in Korea! SURVIVE KOREA! Episode 01 is a funny, choose-your-answer comic gamebook that teaches you what to actually say in 20 everyday Korean situations.

HOW IT WORKS
Each mission puts Alex and Minji (and Hodu the cat) in a real-life moment in Korea. Pick A, B or C and tap it to jump to the result. Wrong answers lead to exaggerated comic disasters. The best answer comes with a short, friendly explanation of the Korean phrase and the culture behind it.

THE 20 MISSIONS
Asking for water at a restaurant, ordering an iced latte at a café, meeting a friend's grandmother, asking a price at a street market, thanking a close friend, getting a bag at a convenience store, checking if a subway seat is free, telling a taxi driver where to go, your first day at a Korean company, asking a professor a question, calling staff over at a restaurant, starting a family dinner, asking for just a small trim at a hair salon, checking in at a hotel, apologizing after bumping into someone, thanking someone for a gift, thanking staff as you leave, when you can say "nuna," understanding Busan dialect, and asking to switch to casual speech.

WHAT YOU GET
- 1 ZIP containing 20 MP3 audio tracks, a quick-start guide and a track list
- 1 PDF, 124 pages, 16:9 landscape (1920x1080), made for phones, tablets and computers
- Clickable A/B/C choices and a clickable table of contents
- 20 missions, each with a question, two comic wrong-answer results, the best answer and a culture note
- Korean phrases with English translations
- Bonus ending page: a short note from the creator, a 1-minute reader survey and a sneak peek at Episode 02

ALSO INCLUDED: 20 LISTEN-AND-PRACTICE AUDIO TRACKS
Hear what to say, then try it yourself. Each short track pairs an English situation with a Korean example, a 4-second speaking pause, and a repeat. Match tracks M01-M20 to the comic's missions.

You receive the original 124-page clickable comic PDF plus 1 ZIP containing 20 MP3 tracks, a quick-start guide and a track list. Total audio: about 4 minutes 7 seconds. Extract the ZIP and play the MP3s offline in your preferred audio player.

The voices are AI-generated, not human recordings. M19 includes a synthesized approximation of a Busan/Gyeongsang expression, not a native-speaker dialect recording; pronunciation and intonation vary by speaker and locality.

GOOD TO KNOW
- This is a digital download. No physical item will be shipped.
- On a phone, turn it sideways (landscape) or use single-page view in a PDF reader such as Apple Books or Adobe Acrobat Reader for the best reading experience.
- Comic scenes are deliberately exaggerated for laughs. Real people in Korea are generally patient with learners.
- Explanations are friendly guidance, not strict rules. Many expressions depend on context, and we point out when there's a safer, more natural option.
- Artwork was created with the help of AI image tools and then edited and laid out by The Busan Guy.
- For personal use only. Please don't resell or share the files.

Best for beginners, travelers, study-abroad students, K-drama fans and anyone who wants to sound polite in Korea.
