Learn Korean by reading books you love.
StoryFluent takes a book you'd read anyway and gradually weaves Korean into it, one word at a time. No drills, no flashcards, no invented dialogues. Just a story you're already hooked on, teaching you Korean as you go.
Alice grew rather 피곤한 of sitting by her 언니 on the riverbank, when a white 토끼 came hurrying by.
How you'll learn Korean
Three steps, and the first two are things you already know how to do.
Pick a book
Bring your own EPUB, PDF or text file, or choose from more than 1,200 classics in the Store. Any book you'd enjoy reading in English works.
Read as you normally would
StoryFluent swaps a few of the most common Korean words into the text. Hold the page to see what one means, then keep reading. The mix grows as you get comfortable.
Make it stick
Words you meet flow into quick review sessions, word games and handwriting practice, so your Korean vocabulary stays with you long after the last chapter.
Hangul, block by block
Korea's alphabet is famously learnable, and StoryFluent teaches it the way it's written: individual letters first, then full syllable blocks, with stroke order scored on the chalkboard as you draw.
Everything else you get
The reading is the core. The rest is built around it.
Hold the page to learn any word
See a translated word mid-sentence? Hold the page for an instant definition, right there. No need to leave your spot.
Listen along
Have the book read aloud, with every swapped word spoken in your target language, in sync with the page.
Read the news, too
Headlines from around the world in your own language, with the same gentle word swaps. Fresh every day.
Games and handwriting
Word games with levels to climb, and a chalkboard that teaches you to write every script, from Hangul to kanji to Arabic.
Streaks, levels & badges
Track your reading streak, level up as you go, and unlock badges the further you read.
Private, offline, no subscription
Everything runs on your phone. No account to create, nothing uploaded, and the paid tier is a one-time purchase rather than a monthly bill.
Learning Korean with StoryFluent
Can I learn Korean from scratch with StoryFluent?
Yes. You read in English and StoryFluent starts with only a handful of the most common Korean words per page, so the story stays readable from the first chapter. The mix increases as your confidence does.
Which books can I read?
Any EPUB, PDF or text file you already own, or one of more than 1,200 classics in the Store. Books are processed on your phone and never uploaded.
Do I need to learn Hangul first?
No. Korean words appear in Hangul inside the story from the start, and the chalkboard teaches you to read and write them alongside.
