Dear all,
We apologize for such a late reply. Unfortunately, there are no answer keys available for students. At least, not at the moment. We may consider having them available to students, however. Thank you for using KLEAR textbooks.
Please do consider making a answer key. On behalf of my fellow students and myself, the one major weakness with this text is the lack of answers. Especially if we don’t have a teacher or access to a native speaker. This is a great series, but we do need the answers!
I apologize for any inconvenience. We’re still hesitant to make the keys available to students since many instructors use the exercises in the WB as graded assignment. We might be able to publish it in the near future however. Thank you for your patience!
Biology and math books often have the answers even if only odd answers in some cases, and answer books can be purchased for a lot of courses, even when assignments are given- it is part of the learning process. It is nearly impossible as a student learning Korean to hear the difference between ch’a and cha or ga and g’a in the listening assignments. It would not be a form of cheating as seems to be the concern in previous posts on this concern; it would be a great addition to the format of the textbooks being integrated.

I agree completely. My math and science have answers to the odd numbered questions. Instructors know to only grade the even numbered questions, and students can check their work. I am trying to learn Korean on my own, and it would be very helpful to be able to correct my mistakes.

I understand your reluctance to release answers to exercises that are used in university classes. However misuse of the answers can only enhance one’s grade a small amount with such a difficult language, while the benefit to people studying on their own would be enormous.
Thanks,

I’d like to know if there are answers available for the ‘listen and write down’ exercises.
I’m teaching myself using KLEARtextbooks but there is no way to check for me, and I’d like to learn it right.

I am self-studying korean with beg 1 and beg 2 workbooks and am wondering if there was a possiblity that you may email me the answer key due to the fact that I do not have anyone to make sure I am not making any mistakes. It would be a tremedous help to me if this was possible.
Dear Hasit,
Most of the KLEAR textbook users need to work on their WB exercises as homework assignment. Per request of the instructors who teach the courses, we could not make the answer sheets available to public. However, we might be able to make it public in the near future. Thank you for your patience.
I understand, yet some of us who are using the WB are using it for self-study. We have no instructors to help us or tell us if what we are translating or what we are answering from the audio files is correct or not which could be detrimental to our learning and study of the language. The Workbook is supposed to help us immerse ourselves in the written part but if our answers are wrong and we dont know that it is than it would just hurt our understanding in the end. So it would be a tremendous help to us self-study learners to make sure that we are answering and learning the language correctly.
Thank you for your remarks.
I totally understand your situation, and we are seriously considering in posting the answer keys for those who use our books for self-study. If it happens, we will post a note on the main page.

our teachers don’t even mark our workbook and they post only SOME answers online for us to check for ourselves…so it would really help if there are answers available thanks
Hello. Are there any audio files available for the Introduction / Hangul section before Lesson 1 (p.14 onwards)? It seems a lot of important pronunciation topics are studied here and with no audio this is difficult for self study.
Well I really like that this has audio since I’m self learning but I don’t know how to tell if my answers are right and I know that you can’t just post answer on here. Is there anyway you can email them to me if I tell you my email address. That could be really helpful for me. Thanks
Does anyone here know where I might access the audio files for the FIRST edition workbooks? I have Beginning I, Beginning II, and Intermediate I, all in First Edition. Please help! [email protected]
I am using this series for self-study and would like to check my answers. Is there anyway that you could possibly email me the answer key for the workbook?
We don’t have answer keys for self-studying students. However, we’re planning to have an online version of the workbook so that students can check their answers online. We will post the news whenever they become available. Thank you for your patience.

It’s really really bad that one can not get the key to the workbook. For all people who are self-studying korean this is a must have. I think the textbook is good but how can I recommend this product? I want to know if I’m right or wrong when I’m practicing. If students who are using this product in class are cheating when doing exercises they are stupid and it’s totally up to them really. Exercises are for practicing and when practicing you need to be able to check if you’re right. If teachers want to test their students for grading them they should make their own tests, not use the workbook as an exam. Or if Klear Textbooks want to provide tests for teachers you should make them separate from the workbook. Exercise is self-testing and necessary for the real test later.

I like that idea, after buying Beginning 1 & 2 I’d be most appreciative if I had a reference to look at so I know if I am at fault. I am self studying Korean, and found that these books seem most helpful. The online audios will be more helpful when I really have to put my brains to the test.
I’m in the same boat as they are, self studying let’s me work at my own pace with my busy schedule but I’d like to make sure I’m doing things correctly. Thanks!
Oh good. I’m self study as well. I researched this product but didn’t even think about solutions being unavailable. When might this online help thing be up? Thanks
This is a really great resource for learning Korean. However, I must agree with all the comments about the answers. It sounds as though many people using the textbook are doing self-study, and it for us it is hard to know if we are doing things correctly if we don’t have the answers. While I understand that there are classes that use this book and instructors don’t want the answers available to the students, I also think that the people who really want to learn Korean will not cheat. When I was learning Russian, our professor gave us the answers and trusted us. It is easy to tell who is actually doing the work and who is not, and it is reflected in test grades and class participation.
I also agree with the comment about hearing the difference in certain pronunciations (ch’a and cha as an example). Would it be possible to get some audio files that focus on this? I think that would greatly help many of us. It would also be helpful to have some more explicit explanations for pronunciations that don’t match the spelling (the United States, for example, sounds like it is being pronounced with a “b”).
I am unable to access the audio files for any of the lessons- I hover my mouse over them, the text reacts and darkens as if it apprehends my clicking, but when I actually do click, nothing happens.
I have the second edition of the Beginning 1 Textbook and Workbook. I am very confused because in the Hangul part of the textbook NONE of the audio matches up, though as far as I’ve seen the actually lessons are fine. Also, in the workbook, the same is true, none of the Hangul stuff seems to match up. I haven’t actually gotten past that, but will the lesson parts match in the workbook. Is the reason the Hangul stuff doesn’t seem to match because I have the second edition? or am I just missing something and it actually does work? Thank you!
Hi Klear textbook: I’ve noticed many people wanting answer keys. My college friends also use this book for self study. College students are poor and do not have money to go out and buy an entirely new version of the book or any more resources JUST to get an answer key. If I email you is it possible you can send me the answer key to THIS version? I will sign a consent if I have to saying I won’t share it with anyone.
Also, if this is not possible, can you please tell me if there’s anyway I can receive the answers SOMEHOW? (I understand you do not give out answers, so how do I do a “per request of an instructor?”)
If you really want to learn a language you need a native speaker to make sure you are pronouncing things properly anyway so an answer key wouldn’t help you much in the long run. Over the years i have found that it really is impossible to become fluent in a language with out a native speaker, or person who is fluent’s instruction. there are too many nuances in language that you can’t learn from a text book. You can check your answers in the work book by going over what the text teaches and comparing your answers to the examples. as for the listening comprehension sections there really is no other way than to ask a native speaker/ person who is fluent in the language.
Are these audio files for the second edition Beginning 1 textbooks and workbooks as well? Or are we supposed to click on the second edition link that I saw on the audio page?
Really love the book, only concern is that I can’t find the answers to the workbook. Luckily I have a Korean friend who is helping me, but for the sake of convenience it would be nice to have access to answers. Thank you.
Can you tell me where the audio files are for the beginner workbook? I was able to download the audio for lessons 1 and 2 before they disappeared, I would like to use the rest please.
It just makes me feel so disappointed! I tried to look out where the audio files for introduction part, but there is none. And i think when we learn things,we should start at the very beginning, if the introduction part is missing, how we can go beyond….
Someone with good heart could explain me how to use these áudio files because I’m going craaaaazy… I win all the books but I don’t know how to make the exercises…
Just go to the Media tab from the top menu of the main page, then choose the right level. Once you get there, simply click play the audio files listed there. Use different browser if it doesn’t work.
Am I missing the audio for pages 2-10 that deal with “Vowels and Consonants” in the workbook. The audio posted and downloaded seems to start at page 14 even though there are numerous activities on pages 2-10 that ask me to listen to a recording…but where? Thanks for the help
That’s very confusing. I found it but I am still confused. Why not label it workbook etc? with page numbers and what not? Anyway. I found it and I can thankfully do my homework.
Please give us an answer key!!!! I am taking a course, but there is no way the teacher can go through every exercise with us to give us the correct answers. I can do all the work and have absolutely no idea if I have done it correctly. Why can’t you provide us with this?
When I try doing some listening, the sections do not seem to match. I am at page 2 workbook and I am looking to find C and D but the audio starts with something more advances. Am I looking at a wrong place?
This is a textbook, people. Wake up. You sound ignorant asking for the professor’s answer key/instruction book. Does ANY school textbook come with this? NO. This is NOT a self-study “teach yourself Korean” book. Do a little more research next time before complaining and saying this “product is bad.”
This being the internet, people stumble over sites like this looking for Korean online resources, and are left with the impression this is some kind of learning project, including a textbook. The audio resources reinforce this impression.
How many people are asking for a professor’s answer key? They just want an answer key. Yes, many textbooks have an answer key at the back. One them is sitting in my lap at this very moment: ‘Korean’, King and Yeon. It has an answer-key in the back. It’s a pretty poor textbook, in my opinion, but is highly regarded by many.
I just recently started to learn Korean and picked your book out just by chance and what a good choice I made. Your text book and computer resources are excellent quality and value. Thank you so much.
My workbook has audio exercises in the alphabet section but I can’t find the corresponding audio files here. I did find files for the exercises up to page 10 but from page 14 up until chapter 1 I’m coming up with nothing.
Why don’t you add in the pinyin version under the characters because it easier to pronounce the words for beginners. Reading all these characters without the pinyin underneath is really overwhelming. I know it not call pinyin in Korean, but my Chinese textbook have those under the characters, and it’s easier for me to learn. I just got Klear beginner book and the format is really overwhelming. And can you add the pronunciation into the powerpoint because it really doesn’t help if I can’t hear how the words are pronounced.
In Beginner One Work Book on pg 2 section C and D, pg 3 section F, pg 5 section H, I, J, K and etc where am I suppose to download the audios to listen from? I do apologize if it’s on the site but I just couldn’t find it.
I loved the audio files and found them essential in learning – well in pronouncing! (nah essential in learning too!) I enjoyed your texts great companion to my Korean classes!
Hi, I’m supposed to listen to an audio and write the words I hear on page 5 of the Integrated Korean Workbook Beginning 1. But, I don’t know where that audio page is at. I don’t think the audio snycs well with my book
Where are the audio files for the workbook located. I am looking for the complimentary material for chapter 1. I have the hardest time navigating this website 🙁
I’m thankful for these resources, but I’m struggling. I have the text book and workbook, both second edition. The labeling system is different between the two. Numbers in the text book. Letters in the workbook. Then, I realize that there were audio files, so I come here. It took a bit to find the files for the pre-lesson section, but, okay, I found them. However, things don’t seem to quite match. In the workbook, section O is about find the works in the table you worked on in section N. Here, its a “write the words you hear” exercise.
I can get through this, I suppose, but the hardest part: I have no idea if I’m getting the answers right. So, I could be miseducating myself. Why sell the books through Amazon, if we don’t get access to answers, so that we know when to correct ourselves? Even if you sold an answer key to the workbook for a few dollars, I’d pay, because, I’m now worried that I’m not actually learning Korean. I’m learning UnaKorean.
It is quite frustrating that at the beginner level the conversations are so fast you hardly have time to understand what is said. If this is just beginner level i am afraid i don’t know what to expect at the higher levels 🙁
Fortunately i have my teacher to ask but it doesn’t give much confidence when i want to learn Korean while the speech is too fast.
Still no answer key, and when I asked my class instructor he said there wasn’t one, and not to worry about it. So..no clue what I might have gotten wrong. Having to supplement my class with materials from Talk To Me in Korean so I can get feedback on the exercises.
Hi, how do i access the audio files for the textbook and not the workbook?
textbook section is right after workbook audio files.
If you go to the Beginning Lesson Audio 6 ~ 11 there is a link to download the audio for textbook lessons 1-11 =)
Where are the Hangul audio files practice exercises from Textbook.?
Korean Alphabet Section, if you are using mobile(or tablet) device please tap ‘Next’ menu on the top of audio list
I have the same question.

Hi,
I responded to your email about 1 month ago, and am now waiting for your reply.
Thanks,Sumit Sen
Please, check your email.
Is there an answer key available to check our accuracy of the oral exercises which we must write? I cannot tell if my answers are right or not.
answer key only professors supply
im taking this course at university and they supply it here
I’d like to know if there are answers available for the ‘listen and write down’ exercises.
I’m teaching myself using KLEARtextbooks but there is no way to check for me, and I’d like to learn it right.

I don’t understand how the files for the workbook match up with the exercises in the book.
Where can I find the audios that correspond to the first listening activitie (useful expressions) of worbook beginning 1, first edition?
You can download audio files from the following page:
http://www.hawaii.edu/uhpress/mp3/klear
Is there an audio file for the pronunciation of the consonants?
Not at the moment. However, we will consider adding listening materials for Hangul as well.
Hello, I ordered my book for self study is there a way to get an teacher answer key since I am not in school and self studying
Most of students use our WB for their assignment, and therefore, and don’t post the answer keys on our website. We apologize for any inconvenience.
Hi,
I am self-studying korean with beg 1 and beg 2 workbooks and am wondering if there was a possiblity that you may email me the answer key due to the fact that I do not have anyone to make sure I am not making any mistakes. It would be a tremedous help to me if this was possible.

We don’t sell the answer key.. Would you be able to email us ([email protected]) with this question again? I might be able to give an option.
Hey…I am also learning on my own, If you would like to compare answers let me know. [email protected]

We’re thinking of creating additional materials for Hangul in the near future.
http://kleartextbook.com/f_media/z_archive/oldarchive-beginning-audio-lesson-15/
My workbook has audio exercises for these pages (maybe a newer edition?) but I can’t find the audio.
there seems to be an error on the vocabulary list for chapter 5. Bang is said to mean relationship or between, when it should be sa ee
We will make that correction. Thank you.
Beg 1: Lesson 2: Exercise 2 (pg 60) May have an error. Lisa is asked if she is a sophomore, and she answers, “No, I’m a sophomore.”
I’m just having a hard time w/ the audio for the text book itself. It would be helpful if there were more correspondence to the book and audio files.
Would you let us know which lesson?
Well I really like that this has audio since I’m self learning but I don’t know how to tell if my answers are right and I know that you can’t just post answer on here. Is there anyway you can email them to me if I tell you my email address. That could be really helpful for me. Thanks

Please post the solutions for self-studying students.
Serious students benefit tremendously from being able to check themselves.
Lazy students may use the solutions to cheat, which means they don’t actually learn, and thus their exam scores will not benefit.
Do not let these students ruin it for the serious students. The lazy students don’t matter and yet serious students suffer on their behalf.
Please do so. I noticed this was posted 6 years ago. I am self studying and there is no way to check my answers.
Is the online version of the workbook available yet? I am self study and would love to check my answers!
I’m glad my teacher allows us to view our corrections 🙂 Sometimes it’s better to find a class
Same problem here. Very disappointed.

We’re planning to add Hangul section with more details on letters and pronunciation. Hope will become available very soon.
Hi, I just wonder why I cannot find the audio of the Korean Alphabt of workbook p1-11? I really need that one now!Thank you.
Certainly. Thanks for your comment.
BTW, there are audio files on the vocabulary in our site.
I’m an instructor and was wondering where I can find the instructor version of the book
There is no instructor’s version. However, resource book for teachers will be published soon.
I am unable to access the audio files for any of the lessons- I hover my mouse over them, the text reacts and darkens as if it apprehends my clicking, but when I actually do click, nothing happens.

Hi Klear textbook: I’ve noticed many people wanting answer keys. My college friends also use this book for self study. College students are poor and do not have money to go out and buy an entirely new version of the book or any more resources JUST to get an answer key.

Are these audio files for the second edition Beginning 1 textbooks and workbooks as well? Or are we supposed to click on the second edition link that I saw on the audio page?
For the beginning level, all audio files are second edition.
It has been corrected.
This is a great resource. I’d suggest that self studiers partner up with someone to get feedback on whether they’re getting things right. JMHO.
Please, go to our forum and see if there’s anyone who can help you.
Thanks for adding a mp3 download service! No more need to click on the individual links now.
Really love the book, only concern is that I can’t find the answers to the workbook. Luckily I have a Korean friend who is helping me, but for the sake of convenience it would be nice to have access to answers. Thank you.
Unfortunately, the answer keys are available to self-learners only.
I am a self-learner as my funding for college has run out. How can I obtain an answer key?
I am a self learner of Korean, but can find no answer key to correct myself. Is there any available?
I want to know when will have an online version of the begining second edition workbook? I wrote all the exercises and I want to check them.
Dude where can I download the actual work book?
There is no downloadable workbook.
Where is the audio for the beginning hangul?
It’s at the end of the same page.
Hello, I could not find the audio section for the han’gul (introduction) part of the work book. I was wondering where I could find it
Can you tell me where the audio files are for the beginner workbook? I was able to download the audio for lessons 1 and 2 before they disappeared, I would like to use the rest please.

it’s here
Go to
http://kleartextbook.com/b_beginning/a_audio-files/beginning-audio-lesson-1-5/
and click “Korean alphabet” tab.
Bless you. Fuck the klear textbook responses, too. This is the only link that works.
What now you have to download all the audio? What happened to streaming audio? Korean class keeps getting worse and worse……………..
The audio track of part A in Workbook 5 is missing.
Would you mind fixing the problem?
It just makes me feel so disappointed! I tried to look out where the audio files for introduction part, but there is none. And i think when we learn things,we should start at the very beginning, if the introduction part is missing, how we can go beyond….
Hi, where can I find audio for the introduction section of the workbook (page 1-34)? Thanks!

Then, choose “Korean alphabet” tab.
Someone with good heart could explain me how to use these áudio files because I’m going craaaaazy… I win all the books but I don’t know how to make the exercises…
Just go to the Media tab from the top menu of the main page, then choose the right level. Once you get there, simply click play the audio files listed there. Use different browser if it doesn’t work.
Am I missing the audio for pages 2-10 that deal with “Vowels and Consonants” in the workbook. The audio posted and downloaded seems to start at page 14 even though there are numerous activities on pages 2-10 that ask me to listen to a recording…but where? Thanks for the help

Then, choose “Korean alphabet” tab.
That’s very confusing. I found it but I am still confused. Why not label it workbook etc? with page numbers and what not? Anyway. I found it and I can thankfully do my homework.
How can i find the introduction part of audio track?

Then, choose “Korean alphabet” tab.
The alphapet tab doesn’t show for me on my iPad unless I’m in landscape mode. FYI for anyone else struggling with this.
Where are the pre-lesson audio files?

Then, click “Korean alphabet” tab.
Please give us an answer key!!!! I am taking a course, but there is no way the teacher can go through every exercise with us to give us the correct answers. I can do all the work and have absolutely no idea if I have done it correctly. Why can’t you provide us with this?
i dont understand how to listen to the korean alphabet in the workbook.
it doesnt seem to b in sync with my work-book
My teacher cannot even get the answer key. Does it really exist?
The zip file is missing some audio files – I had to get L5C1_A from SoundCloud because it is not in the zip.
When I try doing some listening, the sections do not seem to match. I am at page 2 workbook and I am looking to find C and D but the audio starts with something more advances. Am I looking at a wrong place?
so are there any answer keys available now?
Hi, as i click on one of the audio files i can’t hear anything. Please fix this.
Thank you 🙂
This is a textbook, people. Wake up. You sound ignorant asking for the professor’s answer key/instruction book. Does ANY school textbook come with this? NO. This is NOT a self-study “teach yourself Korean” book. Do a little more research next time before complaining and saying this “product is bad.”
This being the internet, people stumble over sites like this looking for Korean online resources, and are left with the impression this is some kind of learning project, including a textbook. The audio resources reinforce this impression.
How many people are asking for a professor’s answer key? They just want an answer key. Yes, many textbooks have an answer key at the back. One them is sitting in my lap at this very moment: ‘Korean’, King and Yeon. It has an answer-key in the back. It’s a pretty poor textbook, in my opinion, but is highly regarded by many.
I just recently started to learn Korean and picked your book out just by chance and what a good choice I made. Your text book and computer resources are excellent quality and value. Thank you so much.
Where can I find the audio for page 1-10 in the level 1 workbook? The alpha bet starts on page 14 of our books.
Weird, ain’t it?
My workbook has audio exercises in the alphabet section but I can’t find the corresponding audio files here. I did find files for the exercises up to page 10 but from page 14 up until chapter 1 I’m coming up with nothing.
Why don’t you add in the pinyin version under the characters because it easier to pronounce the words for beginners. Reading all these characters without the pinyin underneath is really overwhelming. I know it not call pinyin in Korean, but my Chinese textbook have those under the characters, and it’s easier for me to learn. I just got Klear beginner book and the format is really overwhelming. And can you add the pronunciation into the powerpoint because it really doesn’t help if I can’t hear how the words are pronounced.
In Beginner One Work Book on pg 2 section C and D, pg 3 section F, pg 5 section H, I, J, K and etc where am I suppose to download the audios to listen from? I do apologize if it’s on the site but I just couldn’t find it.
A lot of things in this highly polished site and project don’t add up.
Is there audio of vocabulary list online?
I loved the audio files and found them essential in learning – well in pronouncing! (nah essential in learning too!) I enjoyed your texts great companion to my Korean classes!
if I may, take it distance at CSU or SMC…
The audio file for “Workbook | Lesson5 C1 A” is missing in the download. Would you please correct this error and supply the MP3? Thank you.
Are there any audio recordings for the Hangul intro chapter of the workbook?
This website sure isn’t very ~klear~ about which book and which lessons it’s talking about..
This is not user friendly at all. I can not figure out which audio to click on. I am so frusterated and wonder if I am doing anything right.
Hi, I’m supposed to listen to an audio and write the words I hear on page 5 of the Integrated Korean Workbook Beginning 1. But, I don’t know where that audio page is at. I don’t think the audio snycs well with my book
Where are the audio files for the workbook located. I am looking for the complimentary material for chapter 1. I have the hardest time navigating this website 🙁
I am a third year Korean student, so if anyone needs help with checking answers for the beginning sections feel free to email [email protected].
I might take you up on this! Thank you!
I’m thankful for these resources, but I’m struggling. I have the text book and workbook, both second edition. The labeling system is different between the two. Numbers in the text book. Letters in the workbook. Then, I realize that there were audio files, so I come here. It took a bit to find the files for the pre-lesson section, but, okay, I found them. However, things don’t seem to quite match. In the workbook, section O is about find the works in the table you worked on in section N. Here, its a “write the words you hear” exercise.
I can get through this, I suppose, but the hardest part: I have no idea if I’m getting the answers right. So, I could be miseducating myself. Why sell the books through Amazon, if we don’t get access to answers, so that we know when to correct ourselves? Even if you sold an answer key to the workbook for a few dollars, I’d pay, because, I’m now worried that I’m not actually learning Korean. I’m learning UnaKorean.
Where is the damn hangul sections audio for the second edition of the effing work book!??!?!??! >:(
here’s ‘damn’ tab that you need to click/tap(mobile)

I am partially deaf. It is very hard for me to hear the pronunciation. Is there any louder audio version of this book.
It is quite frustrating that at the beginner level the conversations are so fast you hardly have time to understand what is said. If this is just beginner level i am afraid i don’t know what to expect at the higher levels 🙁
Fortunately i have my teacher to ask but it doesn’t give much confidence when i want to learn Korean while the speech is too fast.
Still no answer key, and when I asked my class instructor he said there wasn’t one, and not to worry about it. So..no clue what I might have gotten wrong. Having to supplement my class with materials from Talk To Me in Korean so I can get feedback on the exercises.
