Max Chau completed this course, spending 1 hours a week on it and found the course difficulty to be easy.
This course is very effective to give learners a brief understanding to the Korean culture and philosophy. It talks about the Korean unique way of thinking through videos. The ideas are also easy to understand and follow.
