For me, i feel its fine, would love to learn the language, find it sweet and unique from the rest.

korean sounds like youre fighting right? hehe im korean

it's not as bad as chinese or viet... to me, those ppl always sound like they are fighting...
korean is beautiful if u can understand the language.. although it may be corny at times
i luv japanese the best though

Korean is sooooo better than mando!!! maybe not betta den jap but soooooo better than mando --- no intonation or weird shuang zhan xie jiu chou ce zui sounding things!

i think all is good... depends on how, who and when they say it...... i mean don't really look at the movies or song... since there are many backgrounds sound. In the reality i found japan isn't that great also same goes with mandarin and korean. all is just the same, all are good. i like all of them, korean, jap, and mandarin ,though i would not really eager to learn the mandarin.
sorry..... it is just my opinion....

yes can be, but certainly this is the least understandable of all asian languages, i mean very different from others,,,taiwanese doesn't sound bad either

Korean sounds rougher than japanese but smoother than mandarin. I hear a lot more simple syllables and it sounds more stacatto than mandarin, which is why korean sounds "neater" to me. I don't speak any of the languages, but sometimes korean sounds like a mix of japanese and mandarin. Atleast when i watch k-dramas, it sounds like japanese with some complex non-stacatto mandarin sounds thrown in.

i don't feel that korean is 'choppy', but i still prefer mandarin as i speak mandarin, & i think mandarin is much easier to get along

anyway, all the languages are unique

after watching series of k-drama, i'm thinking of picking up some simple korean, hehe
i note that some of the korean pronounciation are quite similar to mandarin, though ... i started to like the language =P

i love the ways korean speaks
i have o idea what they may be talking about
but its pretty nice
mandarin is better than korean, in my opinion

i like korean language! i think it's nice to hear too.
