Think Clearly.
Write Clearly.
Good TOPIK writing is not about using the hardest Korean. Build a clear answer, organize your ideas and express them accurately.
Answer What Is Asked
Before writing, identify exactly what the task requires. A well-written answer can still lose points if it does not answer the task.
What is the topic?
What must you explain?
Stay focused on the task.
Don’t start writing immediately. First decide what your answer needs to accomplish.
Organize Your Ideas
A few seconds of planning can make your Korean clearer and reduce unnecessary rewriting.
Main Point
Decide what you want to say first.
Support
Add reasons, information or examples.
Connection
Make sure each idea leads naturally to the next.
Finish
End without introducing a completely new idea.
Clear Korean Beats Complicated Korean
Use vocabulary and grammar you can control. Your answer should be accurate, connected and appropriate for written Korean.
Complete the Task
Include the information and ideas the question requires.
Connect Your Ideas
Give your answer a clear and logical flow.
Write Accurately
Control vocabulary, grammar, spelling and written style.
Practice Writing with a Korean Keyboard
Knowing the answer is not enough. You also need to express it comfortably in the computer-based test environment.
Typing Is Part of Your Preparation
Practice composing Korean directly on a keyboard instead of writing on paper first and then typing.
Your goal is to think, organize and write without the keyboard interrupting your ideas.
