온라인 수업은 이동 시간을 줄일 수 있어서 편리합니다. 특히 통학 시간이 긴 학생들에게 도움이 됩니다. 그러나 집에서는 집중하기 어려울 수 있으므로, 짧은 참여 활동이나 정기적인 피드백을 함께 활용하는 것이 좋습니다.
Choose the right practice path
TOPIK I and TOPIK II Ask for Different Skills
Start with the exam you are actually preparing for. TOPIK I focuses on listening and reading, while TOPIK II adds writing. TOPIK Speaking is a separate examination, so this page does not treat speaking as a TOPIK I or II section.
TOPIK I
Build beginner listening and reading confidence. Use short notices, everyday exchanges, time expressions, and common vocabulary as focused practice material.
TOPIK II
Work across listening, reading, and writing. This page emphasizes revision: making a Korean paragraph more complete, more connected, and easier to follow.
TOPIK Speaking
TOPIK Speaking is separate from TOPIK I and II. If you want general Korean conversation practice, use SayLingo’s Korean learning or AI conversation paths instead of treating it as an I/II exam section.
PBT & IBT format guide
Keep Your Version in View While You Practice
PBT and IBT belong to the same TOPIK system, but current official tables show different item counts, time limits, and score scales. Use version-specific official materials alongside your language practice.
| Test | Format | Sections | Items | Total time | Total score |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| TOPIK I | PBT | Listening · Reading | 30 + 40 | 100 min | 200 |
| TOPIK I | IBT | Listening · Reading | 26 + 26 | 70 min | 400 |
| TOPIK II | PBT | Listening · Reading · Writing | 50 + 50 + 4 | 180 min | 300 |
| TOPIK II | IBT | Listening · Reading · Writing | 30 + 30 + 3 | 125 min | 600 |
TOPIK I · PBT100 min · 200 points
Listening 30 · Reading 40
TOPIK I · IBT70 min · 400 points
Listening 26 · Reading 26
TOPIK II · PBT180 min · 300 points
Listening 50 · Reading 50 · Writing 4
TOPIK II · IBT125 min · 600 points
Listening 30 · Reading 30 · Writing 3
Do not compare raw PBT and IBT totals as if they use one scoring scale. The current official overview lists different total-score scales for the two delivery formats. For registration, test dates, official samples, and current rules, check NIIED/TOPIK directly.

TOPIK II writing practice
Revise the Meaning, Not Just the Grammar
These original examples show a practical revision process: notice what the paragraph is trying to do, repair a language problem, strengthen the connection between ideas, and write the paragraph again. They are learning examples, not official TOPIK questions or scores.
Original case 01
Revision example
Team Projects at University
Practice prompt
대학교에서 팀 프로젝트를 활용하는 것에 대해 자신의 생각을 설명해 보세요.
First draftNotice form + logic
저는 대학교에서 팀 프로젝트가 필요하다고 생각합니다. 팀 프로젝트를 하면 다른 사람 생각을 들을 수 있습니다. 그리고 혼자 공부할 때보다 많은 것을 배웁니다. 하지만 팀원이 시간이 다르면 만나기 어렵습니다. 그래서 학교는 팀 프로젝트를 많이 해야 합니다.
Language form
다른 사람 생각 becomes clearer as 다른 사람의 생각.
Logical connection
The final 그래서 does not follow naturally after introducing a problem. Add a response to the problem first.
Revised versionOne possible rewrite
저는 대학교에서 팀 프로젝트를 활용할 필요가 있다고 생각합니다. 팀 프로젝트를 하면 다른 사람의 생각을 들을 수 있고, 혼자 공부할 때보다 다양한 관점을 배울 수 있습니다. 물론 팀원들의 시간이 달라 함께 만나기 어려울 때도 있습니다. 그러나 온라인 회의나 역할 분담을 활용하면 이런 문제를 줄일 수 있습니다. 따라서 팀 프로젝트는 협업 능력과 학습의 폭을 넓히는 데 도움이 될 수 있습니다.
Original case 02
Revision example
Longer Library Hours
Practice prompt
공공도서관의 운영 시간을 늘리는 것에 대해 자신의 의견을 설명해 보세요.
First draftNotice balance + conclusion
도서관 시간을 더 길게 해야 합니다. 학생은 밤에 공부하는 경우가 많기 때문입니다. 그런데 직원이 힘들 수 있습니다. 그래서 밤에도 열어야 합니다.
More specific reason
Explain who needs later hours and why, instead of repeating that the library should stay open.
Answer the limitation
If staffing and cost are a problem, propose a condition or compromise before the conclusion.
Revised versionOne possible rewrite
공공도서관의 운영 시간을 연장할 필요가 있다고 생각합니다. 낮에 수업이나 일을 하는 사람은 저녁에야 도서관을 이용할 수 있기 때문입니다. 다만 운영 시간이 길어지면 직원의 부담과 비용이 늘어날 수 있습니다. 따라서 모든 지점을 늦게까지 운영하기보다 이용자가 많은 날이나 시험 기간에 연장 운영을 하는 방법을 고려할 수 있습니다.
Use the same revision habit in your own Korean.
Practice More Korean
Write a short paragraph, check one language form and one connection between ideas, then rewrite it in your own words.

Three Connectors, Three Different Jobs
Do not add a formal connector simply to make a paragraph look advanced. Choose the word that matches the relationship between the sentences.
Show a direct result
Use it when the second sentence is a natural consequence of the first.

Introduce a contrast

여자: 오늘 오후에 같이 도서관에 갈까요?
남자: 미안해요. 오늘은 아르바이트가 있어서 내일 가면 어때요?
남자는 왜 오늘 도서관에 갈 수 없습니까?
Answer: B. The key phrase is “오늘은 아르바이트가 있어서” — he suggests tomorrow because he has a part-time job today.

A focused study routine
Use SayLingo Between Your Official Practice Sessions
Keep your official TOPIK materials for exact test instructions and timing. Use SayLingo to revisit Korean language skills in shorter, repeatable practice sessions.
Choose I or II
Start from the exam level you actually need so the page does not turn into generic Korean study advice.
Keep PBT or IBT clear
Use the format label that matches your registration and pair practice with version-specific official material.
Work on one weak skill
Revise a paragraph, diagnose a listening detail, or explain why a reading option is supported by the text.
Try the idea again
Use a new topic or condition so the improvement becomes part of your Korean, not just a memorized sample.
Practice boundaries
Know What This Page Does — and What It Does Not Do
Clear limits make the practice more useful. SayLingo can support selected language exercises; official TOPIK administration, test conditions, and certification remain with the official testing organizations.
Original language tasks
Use the visible writing revisions, listening dialogue, reading notice, and Korean connector examples as study material before you log in.
Exact format and timing
Use official TOPIK samples and current instructions for the exact delivery format, item types, time limits, registration details, and test-day rules.
No official score prediction
This page is not a full TOPIK mock test, does not issue a TOPIK result, and does not treat AI feedback as an official TOPIK score.
TOPIK practice FAQ
Questions About TOPIK I, II, PBT and IBT
These answers keep the page focused on the current exam structure and the practice available here.
No. The current NIIED overview lists listening and reading for TOPIK I. Writing is part of TOPIK II.
No. TOPIK Speaking is a separate examination. TOPIK II itself covers listening, reading, and writing. General Korean speaking practice can still support your broader language ability, but it should not be presented as a TOPIK II section.
No. They belong to the same TOPIK system, but the current official overview lists different item counts, time limits, and total-score scales. Study with the format you are registered for and check the official NIIED overview for current details.
No. The prompts, sample paragraphs, dialogue, and reading notice on this page are original SayLingo learning examples. They are designed to practice useful language skills without copying official past papers.
No. This page provides selected practice examples and a focused study path. Use official TOPIK materials when you need the complete format, current timing, or formal test conditions.
If TOPIK I is your target, start with the listening and reading examples on this page. If you need broader Korean foundations before exam-specific practice, use the Learn Korean path first.
Take One Korean Weak Point Into Your Next Practice Session
Revise a paragraph, listen for one decisive detail, or explain the evidence behind a reading answer. Then use a new topic so the improvement becomes reusable.
