Want to learn what the kids are really saying? The Korean they will never teach you in class? To finally keep up with the inside jokes, the slang & the insults as you throw back soju with friends?

If so, get 'street' with: As much as a Rat's Tail – The Insider's guide to KOREAN SLANG, INVECTIVE & EUPHEMISM
An irreverent look at Language within Culture

Want to finally master Korean through witty expressions, fun dialogue, a solid set of slang, and some kickass culture tips?
~ Learn the fun way, then impress your friends, win arguments with your soon-to-be ex, or understand Korean pop culture, without having to rub shoulders the totally-tattooed gangpae (mob guy) at the bathhouse or the local room salon.

Korean is rich with dynamic linguistic expressions and freshly coined language. A Rat's Tail dives into the intricacies of modern Korean slang introducing the hip, hot, spicy & sexual, the irreverent and inspiring, the cultural, crass & comical.

This is the Korean not covered in the language books, full of color and infused with philosophy. With A Rat's Tail in hand, you can impress others with your verbal acumen as you complement their fashion sense, dish out dirty words, or text up a storm, while you gain insight into the mind & culture of the Korean people.

Get the lingo on:

  • expressions so necessary they're like rice
  • stuff to say & do while drinking
  • spicy language, sex talk & swearing
  • what they say in the halls, not the classroom!
  • Konglish & more
  • Get the Straight Scoop with explanations of uncommon words & unusual usage.
    Culturally Speaking - get the skinny on how Koreans think, speak or act.
    Plus how to pick up, break up, make up, or get down & dirty.
    Find out who's abusing you & how to talk about someone behind their back.

    "Shockingly fun!" "This book is the bomb!" "Great bathroom reading!"
