@olivia Welcome to the world of Korean language! Learning hangul is the most important first step. I checked out your website—it's a great initiative! Don't worry about it being rough; building something is the best way to learn. I look forward to chatting with you in Korean someday! Fighting! (That means “cheer up” or “go for it” in Korean. 파이팅 or 화이팅 in hangul.)

@hongminhee so cool! Thanks for your encouragement - we have a similar saying in Māori, the indigenous language in New Zealand: Kia kaha! It means "be strong" and we would use it in the same way.
