[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Op here. I have watched Korean dramas (with subtitles) and listened to k-pop music for 20 plus years. I also watched a ton of Japanese animation movies or cartoon (with subtitles) growing up. I can only speak greetings and basic phrases in Korean & Japanese. Does TV or music really work? Or it has to be simple TV or music designed for toddler? My son is learning Mandarin. [/quote] TV can work for some people (I had a friend who learned Korean and Japanese entirely from tv but she was already fluently English/Mandarin bilingual so that may have helped). Personally I have noticed that tv/music daily really helps as a supplement to lessons but I can’t learn solely from it. I think immersion via media also works way better for younger kids.[/quote]
