jamo
Learn to read Hangul, the Korean alphabet.
Can you say “pizza”? In Hangul, that's 피자. You already know the sounds — jamo teaches you to read the letters.
Just like learning Latin or Cyrillic letters
jamo isn't a Korean language app. It's a Hangul alphabet app. Once you know how the letters work, you can read any Korean text out loud — even without knowing what it means.

“지혜로운 사람은 반나절이면 배우고,
어리석은 사람이라도 열흘이면 배울 수 있다.”"A wise man can acquaint himself with them before the morning is over; a stupid man can learn them in the space of ten days."
— Jeong In-ji, Hunminjeongeum Haerye, 1446
