If you got some good learning material, websites, methods to get your hands on Korean material, etc, that you've been using, feel free to share in this topic.
It would be nice to be able to watch more simpler korean shows with subtitles to get started (bonus if Korean+english subtitles)
Like, watching Doraemon in Korean would probably be a really great way to help. Dramas get pretty old and are like an hour an episode, a kids show or something anime-level would probably be better for learning. It seems almost impossible to get my hands on anything of this sort.
It's a shame their websites to download stuff are kind of complicated and it seems like they charge for their illegal shit which is BS
For Japanese learners/speakers:
If you know Japanese (if even the basics) you can smoke through Korean basics thanks to all the similarities
two good sites

A lot of pronunciations can be linked to others too, like
영 → エイ
①영화 → 映画
②영국 → 英国
③영업 → 営業
④영원히 → 永遠に
⑤수영 → 水泳
etc
