[KS] Korean Vocabulary Study

[Nick Buccelli]

I have the Handbook of Korean Vocabulary book and it's good - particularly
because it has a Korean root section too in addition to the Hanmun.

Otherwise, there is one that I and two friends have been using lately called
"Learn Hanja the Fun Way."  It starts out with things you probably know, but
there are 50 chapters with about 10 characters each and then words that use
them.  By the middle of the book a lot of the vocabulary gets harder, and
many words are relevevant specifically to Korea, Korean culture, or Korean
politics.  There are also quick reading passages and exercises.  It's also
not that expensive - available at Kyobo.

Sincerely,

Nick Buccelli
