Articles + gender (none in Korean)

Korean has no articles or gender; French needs le/la/un/une plus adjective agreement on almost every noun. Learn each noun WITH its article.

from your first language

Verb after the subject (SOV→SVO)

Korean puts the verb last; French is subject-verb-object: "je mange une pomme", not "je une pomme mange".

from your first language

f, v and the French r

Korean lacks /f/ and /v/ (café often comes out as "kapé") and has one liquid for r/l. Drill f/p, v/b pairs and the back-of-throat French r separately.

from your first language

tu/vous maps to speech levels (advantage!)

Your 존댓말/반말 instinct transfers directly: vous ≈ polite speech, tu ≈ intimate speech. Trust that social radar when choosing.

core challenge

Noun gender (le/la)

Gender is largely unpredictable — learn le/la with each noun.

core challenge

Partitive articles (du/de la/des)

"some" is expressed with du/de la/des and changes after a negative (pas de).
