We will be speaking in Korean while in class as often as possible. There are many terms to be learned, and there are many opportunities to learn them. This is only one method. As we pay homage to the art and the people who brought it to us, it is only appropriate and respectful that we speak in the words that are derived from the culture from which they originate.
