What happens when two birthday customers arrive with exactly the same name? Or when a mysterious sound turns up in a recording?

Meet six friends in 30 short Korean stories filled with amusing misunderstandings, unexpected invitations, small adventures, and warm surprises. Each story offers a reason to keep reading and a manageable amount of Korean to explore.

Written for English-speaking upper beginners who can already read Hangul and follow common polite endings, this second collection includes:

- 30 new, self-contained Korean stories with paragraph-matched English translations

- Six vocabulary notes and one useful expression for every story

- 90 bilingual reading questions, with a complete answer key

- A Korean vocabulary index for finding words again in context

Read the Korean first, use the English when you need it, and return to the story with more confidence. You can begin with any story; reading the first collection is optional.
