This is the 4th Edition (purple/violet cover 2008) I borrowed the 3rd Edition (red/maroon color 2002) from the library. The earlier edition has 300 pages and appears to have more info in it than this newer version.
I have two other books. I’m using Korean for Dummies and Beginner’s Korean. And this has a section on grammar that seems to compliment them. I initially bought a 2008 edition but returned it.
Though it is not as color coded as the new version, I’ll be purchasing the 2002 (3rd edition) instead!

My teenager uses this book to communicate with her international friends at school, over emails, and text messages. It works! Information is accurate and they are better able to communicate.

I’ve been living in Korea for about 6 months now and use this book frequently. It’s small enough to carry around in a purse or pocket but holds TONS of information. Everything you need on a daily basis to get around with the locals. The layout is great, you can see it, sound it out or if all else fails… just point! Would definately recommend!
