SEOUL, Dec. 7 (Yonhap) -- A textbook package that allows people to learn the Korean language by listening to the voices of BTS' members is available for purchase.
Hybe Edu, the education content subsidiary of Hybe, said it has released "Talk! with BTS," the Korean-language learning textbook, for pre-order on the commerce platform Weverse Shop and BTS Japan official shop on Tuesday.
"Talk! with BTS" is a textbook package for intermediate learners learning Korean conversations and is released in English and Japanese.
This is the third Korean textbook introduced by Hybe Edu after launching "Learn! Korean with BTS" and "Learn! Korean with TinyTAN."
"Talk! with BTS," which targets teaching intermediate learners, consists of 12 chapters and is based on a fictional character named Bora, who comes to a Korean university as an exchange student.
BTS' seven members appear as professors, senior students from the same major, and club friends to help "Bora" study Korean. Learners can also learn the contents by watching animation and use a multimedia "sound pen," which plays back pronunciations of words of phrases by touching symbols on pages, and smart phones.
"BTS' members recorded all the lines said by characters in the textbook," Hybe Edu said. "Learners will feel like actually talking to the members and be given a real-life like experience."
