maybe you can make some sentences (using your creativity) then leave them in my comment wall. i can correct your sentences.
try to make some!

At 11:26pm on March 22, 2009, clair said…: i realized 꼭 is very tricky one !
we, koreans use 꼭 very often on many occasions!!

<꼭 summery>

i think basically it means 'should'/ ' absolutely'/ 'exactly'

you can say to children like,,this
"밥 먹고 3분 이내에 이빨을 꼭 닦으세요'
-> within 3 min after eating, you should brush your teeth

"남매가 얼굴이 꼭 닮았네요
-> the sister and brother look exactly same!

"다음 저녁은 내가 꼭 살꺼야!'
-> next dinner is absoultely my treat, okay?

At 11:15pm on March 22, 2009, clair said…: 꼭! LIG입니다
꼭 here means,, i guess, 'one and only' or 'absolutely'
i think above sentence should be more natural with '꼭' together, meaning
Other than any brand, LIG is best.

다음에 아이디 있어서 유율에 가입 했는데,
right after joining the club, you only become lower level member which can't see all the postings. that's why i couldn't see 'the' posting.

by the way, do you have msn id??
if you are ok, maybe msn is better.

At 11:03pm on March 22, 2009, clair said…: another 꼭

약속은 꼭 지켜야해요
-->you should keep your promise.

also, you can use '꼭' alone when you wanna ensure things to others.
like this.

"약속 지켜요! " (please keep your promise!)
"꼭! " (ok?)

"다음엔 제가 살께요. 꼭! ( -> next time is my treat, ok? )

At 10:54pm on March 22, 2009, clair said…: because i'm not 정회원 of 국악세상-유율, i can't open some postings including the one has your performance. it's sad!

it is truely amazing that i become aware how nice 가야금 선율 is not by Koreans but by you. anyways, it sounds so peaceful and calm.
thanks, thomas!

time for 한국어 복습!

언젠가 가야금 '꼭' 들려주세요
->some day, you 'should' let me listen to your 가야금.

At 9:40pm on March 22, 2009, clair said…: hey~
i'm just shocked !
your 가야금 performance is just great!
i'm sooooooooooooo impressed!
you should keep going with this!!
anyways, it was so nice to meet you!
try to study korean steadily,^^
꼭!

I'm looking for a speaking partner, too. I think we can hang out exchanging language- I'm working now so I have some free time in the evening on week days or on weekends.
