Pros and cons of PopPopping Korean – Pronunciation app for iPhone and iPad

PopPopping Korean – Pronunciation app good for

It clearly and brilliantly explains and demonstrates how to pronounce the sounds and how to read and compose syllables. A fantastic app for those who just started to learn Korean. Thank you!!!
This is all I really wanted. Something where I could break down everything to the base sounds and how to make these sounds with audio and visual references. I like the kiddy feel of it and its simplicity 감사합니다
Great app! Its easy to learn the sounds of the words and phrases. I love how it doesnt show the romanization of the word and it forces you to associate the sound with that character or syllable. Id love to see more being added to it. :)
I love this app so much!! I was so happy (and a fangirling mess) when I saw that they put in some kpop group names in the rhythm hangeul section!! I love this appp!!!!!!
Its definitely the best Hangeul learning tool Ive seen. Just a small thing, whyre there only 8 members in SNSD anime? Did you already know Jessicas gonna leave years ago??? Sigh..
Its very hard for a new learner to hear subtle differences in pronunciation with all of the background music.

Some bad moments
