Korean to English section difficult to use
By Rkoz
I didn't realize before buying this book that the Korean to English section is only romanized; you cannot look up words in the Korean alphabet. Thus this half is practically useless to me since it takes forever to figure out how the romanization works. I would much rather have the Korean words written in Korean! I don't see how this is useful to anyone. The English to Korean half is pretty good, with current vocabulary (e.g., technology, slang). I would not buy this again, however.
