Korean youtube channels and media: superbeginner video comprehensible input all the way to beginner podcasts! There aren't a lot of TPRS resources for Korean at this level, so many preschooler/kids shows are included. There is an abridged 'complete beginner' list to cover your first hundred hours on my profile. Everything is vaguely ordered by difficulty.
A great playlist for the first few hours of Korean input - it's not long, but it's excellent for the absolute basics!
#2KIWI-Korean Input With Images: Korean 101 - Input for Beginners
Short, well-produced videos. Grammar, antonyms, commonly used words. Beginner to intermediate content!
Short sentences on a theme, has some hard-coded translated subtitles but clearly marks off sections in his videos. Really repetitive & clear. Could easily be used as a podcast after the complete beginner level.
High quality complete beginner, mid/high beginner, and low intermediate videos! At the easiest, about the same difficulty as the above.
Has two playlists for this level: Korean Short Stories Super Beginner & Beginner. Does more than one repeat in the same video.
#7Master Vocabulary (MAVOCA) - Korean
Short picture descriptions, repetitive and easy to understand. Generally varying quality, but there are a few hours of good content here!
Short drawing descriptions, not a lot of hours.
A mix of beginner video games & easy podcast episodes.
Heavy on songs, but overall super comprehensible. Lots of number vocab, of course!
#11한글용사 아이야
Kids show & an absolute favorite media for beginners. Kind of like Power Rangers but with reading. Playful, well structured, excellent balance of repetition & storytelling. Many, many hours of content, and still airing.
#12MUZZY Korean
Famous for English learning, offers free trial. High difficulty placement due to characters' voice affectations, singing, music overlay.
#13King Sejong Institute Foundation
Placed here for the PopPopping Korean playlist, which is similar to Muzzy. If you have interest, their 세종학당 한국어 초급 1 & 2 playlists are also great for grammar taught in monolingual Korean.
#14 태웅쌤 - Comprehensible Input Korean
In addition to his Complete Beginner playlist: video games. Varying levels; at this point, anything marked A1 & A2. Personally I recommend unpacking, Hidden Folks & The White Door first - anything point and click.
Might be AI? I can't tell & I don't watch them much, but overall they're prolific & they have some super easy videos.
Live action & animated show for preschoolers. Great repetition for numbers, shapes, colors, etc. Dubbed.
#17Comprehensible Korean Language
His Beginner-level playlist is great! Lots of video game stuff, a couple of traditional pictures & narration CI.
#18 꿀꿀! 페파는 즐거워 - 공식 채널 - Peppa Pig
A liberal amount of baby voices and oinking (꿀꿀), but with clear & slow speakers.
#19Tayo the Little Bus 꼬마버스 타요
The first real foray into preschool-level TV: harder than 한글용사 아이야, Blippi, and Peppa Pig, but great if you have a higher ambiguity tolerance. The public transit vehicles are surprisingly expressive & the adventures are fairly predictable/intuitive.
Tayo spin-off, higher difficulty but relatively easy to intuit gist of dialogue.
#21Pocoyo
Narration overlaying six-minute adventures with rare dialogue interjections.
#22Mickey Mouse Clubhouse 미키마우스 클럽하우스
* Paid / Subscription * Pretty strong/weird voice affectation, so not really highly recommended, but nevertheless repetitive & comprehensible.
#23KoreAnt
A lot like Storytime in Korean (above); short dialogues spoken with monotone narration, of varying difficulty. Placed closer to intermediate for majority of material.
#24Bluey 블루이
Hilarious kids show that many adults love. Not easy to understand every word, basically ever, but easy to pick up on some new nouns/adjectives & many common phrases. Et cetera.
#25Caillou 까이유
Kind of close in difficulty to Bluey! I feel like the vocab is more advanced but the speech is slower, and either way the plots are intuitive & simple for both!
Preschooler show with very simple plots. Good for geography vocab (cities & countries), and repetitive dialogue.
* Paid / Subscription * Yet another cute, intuitive preschooler show. More difficult than the above, but still doable depending on your ambiguity tolerance. Offers audio description.
#28akapinn 한국어
Super short comprehensible input stories with lots of translations & grammar explanations. Relatively high beginner, or maybe low intermediate.
#29Anyone Can Make It (Kiwi's Cooking Show)
A discontinued cooking channel with 250hrs+ content. She does eventually add in some English for the newer videos, but I find it very unobtrusive. Overall very comprehensible!
Was on the hunt for shows to bridge Bluey & Pokémon, and got into Octonauts! Actually crazy cute and watchable - more advanced vocab than some of the shows below, but still predictable & repetitive.
Another kids show to work up to Pokémon! This is definitely more advanced than a lot of the above, but still comprehensible enough. (For me, started at bits & pieces à la Refold's levels of comprehension.)
