Re: Asarena's Korean Log
Eng Subbed Videos: I watched an NCT Dream Vlive, a Stray Kids Vlive, and episodes 10-14 of Travel the World on Exo's Ladder.
Unsubbed Videos: I watched another short Vlive video after reading through the subtitles. There were more words I didn't know in this one, and the English subtitles didn't really match up well with the Korean subtitles, so I just closed the English subtitles and looked up the words I didn't know on Naver Dictionary.
Audio: I listened to two Iyagis, and I listened to NCT Night Night in the background while I was playing a game.
Reading: I read more of the webtoon, and I also read a short news article on a children's news site. I have a blog post with some Korean reading sources bookmarked on my iPad, and this site is one of the ones listed on it. It's also where I found the webtoon that I've been reading. The news article was about the government adding safety devices in school buses for preschoolers, elementary school students, and special education students. I also read a bit of an article from another site listed in that blog post. Rather than news, that site seems to be more about people's stories and such. The article I started reading is about a woman who didn't want to become a mother like her mother.

Eng Subbed Videos:I watched episode 10 of LAN Life. There were new quests this week, which was nice. I like the original guests as well, but it's good to have some variety. I also "watched" NCT Dream's appearance on NCT Night Night. It wasn't a viewable radio, so the video just consisted of a still background image, the audio from the radio, and subtitles.

Re: Asarena's Korean Log
Wow, you seem to be making nice progress with KGIU. Seeing your progress I think my pace might be a bit too slow with the book. How do you approach studying grammar? Do you also take notes?
I'm really curious how other learners go about the grammar because I haven't yet found the best approach to make everything stick.

Well, for each lesson I pretty much just do this:
1. Before listening to the first conversation in the lesson, I skip ahead and read the grammar explanation.
2. I then go back and listen to the audio for the first set of conversations. I then listen to the audio again while reading the text. Then, finally, I read the conversations myself out loud. I'll also check the English translations of a sentence if I'm not sure I completely understood it.
3. I read through the lesson, reading all of the example sentences both to myself and out loud. I make sure I understand all of the example sentences. If I'm confused about any of the explanations in the book in any way then I search the grammar point online and read another description or two until I understand it.
4. I repeat step two with the second set of conversations at the end of the lesson.
5. I do the questions at the end of the lesson and check my answers. Since I'm using a PDF of the book, I rewrite each question in my notebook, filling in the answer as I go. If I get a question wrong I make sure I understand why my answer was wrong and why the correct answer was the correct answer. I also do the chapter quiz if I've reached the end of a chapter.
6. I started off using Evita's grammar deck on Anki, and it had the KGIU Beginner grammar in it. Also, for a little while I also took notes of my own in a notebook while going through the beginner book. By the time I started doing KGIU Intermediate and had seen almost all of the cards in Evita's deck, I switched to adding the KGIU Intermediate sentences on to Evita's deck. Now I just use that deck for my notes. I cut out and put in the audio for the sentences that have audio, put in the sentences and their translations, and then I add any necessary notes to the note section of the card. I don't put in every example sentence, just whichever sentences I think will be the most helpful or such. I don't do the cards I add that day for the first time until the next day, and I don't read the notes every time I come across a card that has a note. I just read them as needed. The English translations are the same. I only look at them as needed. Also, I don't look at the cards right away, so that if a card has audio I can try to listen and understand just based on the audio first.
7. I also try to use grammar points I learned recently in my daily journal entry if I can, but that doesn't always happen.
