Sori Speak: Korean Coach

Your Korean is good. Is your pronunciation?

Most Korean learners can read Hangul long before anyone tells them their pronunciation is off. Ordinary speech-to-text makes it worse: say 안뇽하셰요 and it "helpfully" writes 안녕하세요, so you never find out which sound was wrong. Sori does the opposite — it scores the line you spoke syllable by syllable, then shows you how to fix the syllable you missed.

FREE TO USE, AND NO LOGIN WALL

Open the app and talk. No sign-up, no card, nothing to unlock first. The mouth-diagram clinic, the native audio and the full phrase library are part of the free app, not a trial that expires.

Your free allowance resets at midnight: 3 pronunciation practices a day as a guest, 5 a day once you make a free account, and one Drama Shadowing Challenge run a day either way. Invite 3 friends and you get 7 more days of unlimited practice, on us.

Make a free account and your first 7 days are unlimited — every practice, every challenge, no cap.

SORI PREMIUM, AND EXACTLY WHAT IT CHANGES

Premium does two things: it removes the daily allowance, and it unlocks the line-by-line analysis for a whole Drama Shadowing run — on the free tier that deeper analysis covers the first line of each run. That is the entire difference.

It is optional and it is not the price of entry. Everything else described in this listing keeps working without paying.

WHAT YOU GET

Speak one line, get scored per syllable
Say a phrase and Sori marks each syllable. The ones you missed turn red. No autocorrect, no guessing, no vague "try again".

A mouth diagram for every sound you miss
This is the part other apps skip. Tap the syllable you got wrong and Sori draws a cross-section of the mouth with the articulation point lit up, tells you where to put your tongue and how much air to release, and names the sound you were reaching for: ㄲ is a tense velar stop (된소리), ㅋ is aspirated (거센소리). Then it gives you the minimal pair to tap and hear — 굴 (oyster) · 꿀 (honey) · 쿨 (cool), or 살 (skin) · 쌀 (rice) — until the difference is obvious.

The pronunciation Koreans actually use
Korean is not spelled the way it is said. Sori shows you the standard pronunciation alongside the spelling: 같이 becomes [가치], 다음에 꼭 같이 먹자 becomes [다으메 꼭 가치 먹짜]. Learn the sound, not just the letters.

Hear it from a native voice
Every phrase plays back in a natural Korean voice, with one-tap 0.8× and 0.6× replay so you can hear the shape of each syllable before you copy it. Listening is never metered and never counted.

Shadow real lines, three ways
Word repeat for single words. Conversation for back-and-forth lines. Acting for full delivery. Plus the Drama Shadowing Challenge: shadow 10 lines in a row, one miss and the run is over — and the whole run is recorded so you can watch it back.

1,000+ words and phrases worth saying
K-Pop Fan, K-Drama, Daily Talk, Business, TOPIK, Food, City and Name — each at Beginner, Intermediate or Advanced. Curated lines people actually use, not textbook filler.

Watch yourself get better
A daily goal, a practice streak, a 14-day heatmap, saved phrases you want to nail, and ten levels to climb from "Korean baby" to "native-level star".

WHO IT IS FOR

- You are learning Korean and want to be understood, not just correct on paper
- You can read Hangul but people still ask you to repeat yourself
- You are preparing for TOPIK, an interview, or study in Korea
- You sing along to K-pop and want the words to land like the original

Sori needs your microphone to hear you and an internet connection to score you. The Drama Shadowing Challenge is the only feature that uses your camera. Creating an account is optional; if you do, we ask for your email and name. The privacy policy explains how your recording is processed.
