- Anyone who understands written Korean far better than spoken Korean.
About this course
TOPIK II listening is not one skill. The first twenty questions are short and played only once. The middle asks you to hold a conversation in your head while answering two questions about it. The later blocks are debates, speeches and expert talks where the speaker never pauses. This course treats each of those as a separate job.
The sections follow the paper. Q1 to 20, played once, come first. Then the gear change at Q21 to 30, where each recording is played twice and carries two questions. Then Q31 to 40, the debates, speeches and expert talks. Then the final block, Q41 to 50. In each section one lesson handles one question type, so you learn what that type wants before you meet it under time pressure.
The audio is the heart of the course. There are 514 natural-speed Korean recordings with both male and female voices, made to sound like the real broadcast. Ear training lessons give you the same clip at a slower speed and at natural speed, so you can hear what you missed and then hear it again at exam pace. Picture and graph questions use real images, exactly as the exam does.
A Skills Lab covers the things that are rarely taught: taking notes while listening, catching numbers and dates as they go past, and building the stamina to stay sharp for a full sixty minutes. Eight named listening traps show you the wrong answers that sound convincing.
The course ends with eight full mocks and a diagnosis. You can run a mock like the real broadcast, straight through with no stopping, or at a study pace that pauses after each question while you are still building confidence. A personal score grid turns your results into advice about which question types to work on next. Ten standalone mock tests with the audio built in come with the course.

Questions about this course
The audio in TOPIK always feels too fast. Can I slow it down?
The ear training lessons give you the same recording twice: once slowed down so you can hear every word, and once at natural exam speed. You work up to full speed instead of being thrown into it.
Can I take a mock test the way the real exam runs?
Yes. Each mock can be run in broadcast mode, straight through with no stopping, or in study mode, which pauses after each question while you are still building confidence.
How long do I get access?
Three years with the TOPIK II Complete Package, and five years with the TOPIK GUIDE All-Access Package. If you buy this course on its own for $9, you get it for three years. You get access immediately after payment, and your access details are sent to you by email.
