I speak Polish, German, Swedish and English. 3 of them are Germanic languages so they were easy to learn because they are so closely related. Polish and German I learned as a child so it was kind of automatic.

Now I have to learn Korean and struggle so much! After 3 months I have learned about 100 words. Any tips how to get to the first 1000 words Ina reasonable time? Especially in a language where none of the words seem to resamle anything from my previous languages.

Yes, and it's very phrased based, so you sort of absorb the grammar without a lot of explicit rules.

How many minutes/hours per day did you use to do it?

They are 30-minute sessions. I did them in my car during work commute. Many public libraries have them. Here's the first session: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eguDJPkjPwQ
