Does This Sound Familiar?

🚫
You rely on Romanisation

You read "annyeong" instead of "μ•ˆλ…•", so your pronunciation never sounds right.

🚫
You're stuck at the start

You want to read your favourite K-drama subtitles, but you can't even form a simple sentence.

🚫
Grammar feels like maths

Subject particles? Object markers? Textbooks make Korean sound impossible.

🚫
You freeze when speaking

You want to say something, but you don't even know where to start. Your mind goes completely blank.

🚫
You panic in conversations

Korean speakers talk to you and you just smile and nod. You have no idea what to say back.

You need a better method.

"People have pointed out how much more comfortable I am at speaking Korean. Which feels like a huge win.

I owe it all to Lily, to be honest. Lily did an AMAZING job fostering a comfortable yet very dedicated learning environment."

Lily Korean Speaking Coach
Who am I?

I'm Lily, your Korean speaking coach.

I created Korean Cheat Code because I've been exactly where you are.

When I first moved to London, I couldn't speak English at all. I had studied the alphabet. I knew some words.

But pronouncing them? That was a nightmare.

I once said "beach" wrong at a coffee shop. The barista's face told me everything I needed to know. I felt embarrassed every single day.

"That experience changed everything for me.
I know exactly how that feels."

I learned English as a second language. I'm learning Spanish right now. I've been in that frustrating place where you're stuck at the very start.

That's why I became a speaking coach. I help you go from zero to speaking Korean naturally, with pronunciation you can actually trust.

I help you stop treating Korean like a subject to memorize and start treating it like a skill to practice.

You learn to respond naturally. To trust what you know.
To sound like yourself, not a textbook.

That's what changes everything.

β€œIn real life, there is no pause button.”

You know the best way to learn Korean: practice with native speakers. But here's the problem: you freeze when it's your turn. How do you improve this way?

Here's what I built for you:

Level 1 Programme

The Korean Cheat Code Level 1 Course

A 16-week course designed to take you from zero to speaking Korean naturally.

At Level 1, you learn to:

-Read Hangeul fluently
-Introduce yourself confidently
-Hold basic conversations about daily life
-Use essential grammar patterns naturally
-Express yourself without translating in your head

How we do this:

βœ“I teach you Hangeul logic from day 1
βœ“You learn from real conversations, not textbook scripts
βœ“You build confidence with structured practice
βœ“You get feedback on your mistakes (Guided only)

This course works differently. How?

Two things make it unique:

01

Real Korean from Day 1

I don't use textbook dialogues. Every conversation comes from my actual life in Korea. You learn how native speakers really talk, not how textbooks think they should talk.

02

Pattern-Based Learning (The "Cheat Codes")

I show you the mental shortcuts native speakers use to build sentences instantly. Once you see the logic, Korean makes sense. No random grammar memorization.

Frequently Asked Questions

Everything you need to know before joining.

Absolutely! Level 1 is designed for complete beginners.

I start by teaching you Hangeul from scratch. You'll learn the logic behind the alphabet, so you can read Korean within just a few hours. You don't need any knowledge before starting. Zero to hero!

Not at all! Level 1 is built for people starting from absolute zero.

Week 0 is all about Hangeul. Then we build gradually, one step at a time. If you ever feel like things are moving too fast:

  • Replay lessons as many times as you need (lifetime access)
  • Ask questions in the Private Community
  • Upgrade to Guided Course for personalised feedback

You're never stuck alone.

I recommend 30 to 60 minutes per day for the best results.

That said, you have lifetime access. So if life gets busy, you can slow down or take breaks. No pressure.

Just remember: consistent daily practice helps you retain more. Even 20 minutes a day is better than cramming once a week!

Great question! Here's the breakdown:

SELF-STUDY (Β£99)

  • 16-week course with all video lessons and worksheets
