The Broken Path

Does this sound like you?

These aren't hypothetical problems. These are real words from real learners stuck in the same cycle.

The App Trap

I've been using Duolingo for 2 years. I have a 700-day streak. I still can't order coffee in Korean.

Speaking Anxiety

I understand Korean when I read it, but the moment someone speaks to me, my mind goes completely blank.

Intermediate Plateau

I passed TOPIK Level 3 but I still freeze in real conversations. Tests and real life are two different worlds.

Real-Life Stakes

My Korean in-laws think I don't care about their culture because I can't hold a basic conversation after 3 years of marriage.

The Tutor Trap

I hired a tutor on iTalki. We just chatted for an hour every week with no structure. After 6 months, I still can't hold a real conversation.

The Confidence Gap

Every time I try to speak Korean, people switch to English. It's humiliating and makes me want to give up.

Sound familiar? There's a better way.

The Method

The Triple Link Method

The Triple Link Method is what we've learned from 12 years of teaching Korean through our Inner Circle program, combined with Joe's own experience learning to speak Korean in Korea.

We took all of that and distilled it into a hands-on transformation program. You'll work closely with experienced teachers and learners in a structured environment designed to guarantee results. We provide the transformation. You just need to show up and do the work.

LINK 01

Power Phrases

Real sentences used in real Korean conversations. Not textbook grammar drills. Actual phrases you will use from Day 1.

LINK 02

Anchor Words

The high-frequency vocabulary that connects your phrases. These are the words that let you adapt and improvise in any situation.

LINK 03

Pattern Logic

The underlying grammar patterns that let you construct new sentences on your own. Not rules to memorize. Logic to internalize.

The Core 5 Blueprints

These are the 5 conversations that happen over and over in Korean life. Master these, and you can handle anything.

Is This Right For You?

Enrollment depends on fit

If you're serious about becoming conversational in Korean within 90 days, this might be the program for you. If you're looking for something more casual, we have other programs that would be a better fit.

This is for you if...

  • You're planning to move to or visit Korea and want to hit the ground speaking
  • You have a Korean partner or in-laws and want to connect with them in their language
  • You're a professional working with Korean colleagues or clients
  • You've tried apps, courses, and textbooks and you're ready for something that actually works
  • You're willing to show up, do the work, and commit 1 to 2 hours per day for 90 days
  • You believe learning Korean is worth a real investment

This is not for you if...

  • You're exploring Korean as a hobby. That's awesome! Our step-by-step Inner Circle program would be a great fit for you
  • You care more about grammar rules than having real conversations
  • You're not willing to put in 1 to 2 hours of daily practice
  • You want a self-paced course with no accountability. We have great options for that too, but the Accelerator isn't one of them
Joe Armstrong, Founder of 90 Day Korean
The Founder

“I had to stop being a student and start being an Architect.”

I studied German in both high school and university. Between the two, that was a total of two years. By the end, I couldn't hold a single real conversation. Not one.

When I moved to Korea, I was determined not to repeat the same mistake. I passed the TOPIK Intermediate Level but I still froze in conversations. Tests and textbooks couldn't prepare me for real Korean life.

So I threw out the textbook approach and reverse-engineered how Koreans actually speak. I identified the patterns, the phrases, the conversations that matter most and built a system around them.

Years later, that system became 90 Day Korean. For over 12 years, we've tested and refined this method with thousands of students. Some had Korean speakers in their daily lives, but many didn't.

That's why we created the 90DK Speaking Accelerator. We wanted to make it possible for anyone to follow the program, follow the steps, and have all the resources they need to transform their Korean, even if they don't have Korean speakers around them.

Success Stories

What 90 Day Korean Students Say

The Accelerator builds on 12 years of proven results from the 90 Day Korean community.

By the end of the trip, I was so much more confident. I went up to Starbucks in the airport and did the whole thing in Korean, from start to end. They asked a question and I answered it. It feels so good when you can accomplish even something like that.

Joel Hannington

United Kingdom

I think the way the lessons are structured make it easy to learn incrementally and also provide the tools to study and learn independently. If I encounter a Korean verb I'm not familiar with, I am confident I can conjugate it properly based on the principles I learned, and the vast majority of the time, my thought process is correct.

Joe Fernandez

Nashville, TN, USA

Since it's a language that doesn't use the English alphabet, it's tough. This program bridges the gap making it simple and fun. I hope both the casual learners and the intense ambitious people give it a try. It's worth the investment.

TJ

Los Angeles, CA, USA

My Coach Jamie is really awesome. I really like the way the lessons are structured and the new content introduced. The challenges are clearly designed to have learners apply what they have learned in an active communicative scenario as soon as possible.

James Short

Saitama, Japan

This course far surpassed my expectations and I never expected to learn so much so quickly. Thank you for making it!

Arienne Andrews

United Kingdom

I am someone who gets overwhelmed when learning new content, and often that leads to me being unable to focus. But within 90DK, I feel at ease. The courses are laid out in an organized way and explained so thoroughly that it's far from a chore to meet my daily goals. I eagerly want to keep going!
