  • Darakwon's "Smash the Returned TOEIC" is one of the TOEIC study books I highly recommend. It provides solution strategies for each question type without cliché or useless explanations, and helps you improve your adaptability for the actual exam through 100% modified past exam questions! Acting as a guide on how to study for the TOEIC, the Darakwon TOEIC LC book was great because it extracts the key essentials from past questions covering various question types from Part 1 to Part 4. Additionally, the Darakwon TOEIC Smash LC MP3 files allowed me to select and listen to specific audio tracks on the website, which was helpful for practicing listening by repeating the audio multiple times even if I couldn't keep up with the speed. After completing Part 1 Units 1, 2, and 3, I was able to practice with actual test questions to get a feel for the real exam. Good luck with the TOEIC!!

  • This is a book my child reads whenever they have a spare moment after school or before going to tutoring these days. It is categorized into 10 themes—such as attitudes, emotions, situations, relationships, and characters—and includes 10 corresponding idioms for each. It contains a whopping 100 idioms in a single volume. Since the meanings are understood first through short comics, it becomes easy to encounter the idioms. The passages, featuring 4-panel comics, speech bubbles, and quiz questions, are tailored to an elementary school level, so both my first and second child giggle while reading it. The cover says "Giggle-Giggle Idiom Origin Comics," and I never expected them to actually giggle! In addition to idioms, the appendix includes 40 additional four-character idioms, so I think reading this book repeatedly will significantly improve their elementary vocabulary.

  • This review was written honestly after receiving the product free of charge from the company. I also purchased Dong-A Publishing's Social Studies, Science, and Korean workbooks for this summer vacation. Compared to other companies' middle school English vocabulary books, it has the advantage of being easy to read and stand out at a glance. I also like that it allows for smart study by utilizing QR codes and the Amgigorae app on smartphones, rather than just paper materials, to encourage consistent learning. It is not just English words; you can selectively choose from three different audio formats—'English Word + Meaning' or 'English Word + Meaning + Example Sentence'—which is a huge attraction as it shows they paid attention to strategic vocabulary listening, helping children determine whether they need just the words or the whole picture.

  • As a Chinese major, I have exclusively used Darakwon textbooks since my college days when studying. You absolutely must master Hanja before learning Chinese!! It is a 30-day completion, 3-step learning project. It includes essential vocabulary for HSK Levels 1–6, 1,000 essential Hanja characters for learning Chinese, and provides stories that help you memorize every character immediately. Part 1: Humans (10 days), Part 2: Nature (10 days), Part 3: Life (10 days). You can scan QR codes to listen to audio and utilize the memorization program!! Step 1: Memorize the origins of Chinese characters easily through stories. Step 2: Quickly review with the core storybook. Step 3: Make associations with the memorization program. I will also make good use of this textbook for 30 days to study Chinese!! This review was written as a Darakwon supporter.

  • I received this book through my participation in the Darakwon Book Supporters program. “Features” Sentence pattern practice where you can master expressions by reading along with various example sentences Practice exercises to check your understanding of previously learned material Vocabulary summary organized so you can see the new words used in each chapter at a glance. This is the next-level textbook following 'Cheer Up! Self-Study Japanese First Steps'. It is helpful for reinforcing and organizing grammar and sentence patterns for those who find it difficult to jump straight into the intermediate level. Additionally, it includes a workbook as a separate supplement, and provides free MP3 files and video lectures taught directly by the author. I recommend this to those who have just finished 'Self-Study Japanese First Steps':)

  • Since I decided to master the basics of the JPT with just one Darakwon book, I chose Darakwon's JPT 1000 Questions for the listening comprehension workbook as well. (ง •̀ω•́)ง Just like other workbooks, the Darakwon JPT 1000 Questions Listening Edition is divided into a question section and an answer key. As I studied, I realized that while the questions themselves are important, the quality and quantity of the explanations are equally crucial. In the case of the Darakwon textbook, the explanations are well-done and vocabulary is organized, making it very convenient for studying. The workbook includes a listening CD, but I listened to the MP3 files on the Darakwon website! You just need to search for the book title and click on the MP3 file. You can study by choosing whichever method is most comfortable for you.
