Kimchi and Coffee Premium · Practice partner
You froze when it's your turn to talk.
Sunhee is the Korean partner who waits while you find the word. Ten minutes a day. You talk. She writes back in Korean.
The emails put the Korean in your head. Sunhee pulls it out of your mouth.
Included with your subscription. No upgrade.
Stewart built Sunhee because he froze too. He was the first student.

안녕하세요! 오늘 뭐 했어요?
annyeonghaseyo! oneul mwo haesseoyo? — Hi! What did you do today?
🎙 you said
시장에 갔어요.
좋아요! 이렇게도 말해요: 시장에 다녀왔어요. 뭐 샀어요?
joayo! You can also say “sijange danyeowasseoyo.” What did you buy?
You can read it. You just can't say it.
You read Korean fine. You can guess the verb. But when a real person talks to you, your mouth locks.
“I can read it. I can almost understand it. But when somebody talks to me, I freeze.”
That's not your fault. Apps make you tap. Class makes you drill. Neither one waits while you talk.
Sunhee waits.
Sunhee is a Korean speaker from Seoul. She is patient. She is kind. She was built for people who are just starting.
She says hi in Korean. The English sits right under it. You talk back, out loud. She writes a short reply and fixes what you got wrong, gently. Tomorrow she picks up right where you stopped.
A patient tutor costs $40 an hour.
Sunhee is included with what you already pay. So use her.
How a session goes.
01
Tap the mic.
Say a sentence in Korean. Up to a minute. Don't think. Just say it.
02
Read it back.
Sunhee turns your voice into words. Fix anything wrong, then send. That fix is the practice.
03
She writes back.
She fixes your Korean, kind and short. Then she asks one more thing. You keep going.
What you get when you sign in.
A partner who waits
You talk. She listens. You fix it. She writes back. Two short lines, Korean and English, every time.
A new phrase every Monday
Tied to the email you got that morning. The chat and the inbox stay in step.
A new question every day
Five per phrase, one a weekday. You never get the same chat twice.
She remembers you
Tell her about your abuela Monday. She asks about her Thursday.
Ten real minutes
Not taps. Not multiple choice. Real talk. A bar at the top fills as you speak.
Every chat saved
Scroll back. See how far you came. It's yours forever.
90-Day Promise
Hold a five-minute Korean conversation by Day 90.
Or every penny back. No hoops. No phone call. Just reply to your receipt.
Your 90 days start the day you start.
Begin today and you stop freezing by November 3.
Wait a week, and that's a week the freeze stays.

Frequently asked.
Do I need a paid subscription?
Yes. Sunhee is included with your active Kimchi and Coffee subscription — no separate upgrade. Not a member yet? Join at kimchi-and-coffee.com.
How is this different from other apps?
Most apps make you tap. Sunhee makes you talk. You speak. She turns it to text. You fix it. She writes back in Korean. Voice first, the whole way.
What if I'm a total beginner?
She's built for you. Easy words. Easy tenses. English always sits underneath. You won't feel lost.
Does she really fix my Korean?
Yes. When you slip, she starts her reply with the right way to say it. Then one more question. No grammar lessons.
What does "ten minutes" mean?
Ten minutes of you talking, tracked by the bar. Reading and editing don't count. Just your mouth moving.
Can I see past chats?
Yes. Every day you practiced is in the left rail, read only. Today's chat is the live one.
