Dear list:

I am pleased to recommend a good textbook on the first year 
Korean language course published in Los angeles.
Author: Insook Jung Cho
Title:  Real Life Korean 1.
Seoul: Jae-won Publishing Co., 1999.
2 volumes, (1 text and 1 workbook.)
It is available in Kyobo bookstore.

It is well received  by young Korean language professors and teachers 
in the United States.  
This is one of the rare books which explain the grammar in English
clearly, easil, and step-by-step without jumping.
Often Korean language textbooks written in Korea jumps
without explaining every step of the grammar..
The authors teaches in Glendale Community College at night.
She had been Korean school teachers in Korean community in
Los Angeles for 20 years. 
My university language teacher says this is
really written by person who taught in the United States. 
It is visually clear and well organized, from her major and work 
experience  in visual education in Korea.
It is two volumes: 1. grammar. 2. textbook.
The examples are chosen from things the Korean-americans or Americans are 
familar with.
It comfirms to the California language textbook  standard and also United
States language textbook standard.
The second year volume will soon to be published.

The price in Kyobo bookstore in Korea is 30,000 won
and in the U.S. $40.00.
The book will be available to view in AAS conference in San Diego.
