##General rules

► Be respectful to others. Insulting, disrespectful, racist, or unhelpful comments and posts may be removed. Simply telling a user to look up the answer themselves, without providing any additional information, is also considered unhelpful. Repeatedly breaking this rule will result in a ban. We're here to help each other.

► Comments and posts from users with negative comment karma are invisible to others. This prevents spam. Message a mod for faster approval.

► Use "message the mods" if your post/comment is not showing, or for any assistance. Moderators will not respond to any direct 1:1 chats or personal messages related to this subreddit.

► Mark any NSFW content as NSFW.

► Videos - Only videos directly related to teaching or learning Korean allowed. Posts must contain a full, detailed summary of the video's content (not a short description). Vlogs and other videos will removed.

► Low-effort posts, including posts with very little information (too little to help other users), and posts that are vague may also be removed. Frequently deleting posts and reposting is also not allowed.

► A maximum of one self-promotion comment or post is permitted each week, and may be removed at the mod's discretion. AI-generated content is discouraged. Self-promotion posts only containing a link with an overly short description may also be removed. In addition, you may not request that users directly contact you as part of self-promotion. Instead, include a link. Use "message the mods" for any additional questions.

► Piracy and promoting piracy are not allowed. Posting a small excerpt of copyrighted material (for citation, questions, etc.) is okay.

► No bots.

► No captchas.

► No schoolwork.

► No name translations.

► No scanlation requests.

► Please see our complete list of rules here.
