In today’s lesson, we will introduce you to a crucial phrase for all you travelers out there who are interested in learning more about the tourist attractions you are going to visit. Learning about the historical and cultural significance of places you visit can be just as rewarding as seeing them. Today, we will cover Do you have an English One? In Korean, do you have an English One is [*] One time slowly, it’s [*] and now by syllable, [*] The first word [*] means English. Let’s break this word down.
