Welcome to another episode of TalkToMeInKorean! In this lesson, we take a look at another Korean particle that can have various translations: -(이)라도. If this is the first time you’ve seen -(이)라도 being used, don’t worry – you will find it very easy to use and quite useful as well!
Thank you so much for studying with us and as usual, be sure to leave us comments and practice making your own sample sentences!
