Say it, read it, order it: Korean for your trip, offline.
Short description
Dalmaji is a Korean travel app for iPhone with 340 travel phrases with clear audio, Hangul in 30 minutes, a Menu Decoder for 60 dishes and a won converter. It works offline, in 12 languages, with no account, no ads and no subscription.
Long description
Most Korean apps teach the alphabet and stop there, and most travel phrasebooks never teach you to read. Dalmaji (달맞이, “going out to see the moon”) does both, for the ten days you are actually in Korea. It has 340 phrases in 13 travel situations, each with Hangul, official romanization, an easy reading and clear audio, always in the polite register a visitor is expected to use. Its “Hangul in 30 minutes” section takes a traveller through the 40-letter alphabet, a syllable table and a six-lesson crash course that ends with an exam built from 12 real street signs. A Menu Decoder explains 60 dishes and how to order them, 90 Konglish words turn Hangul into English you already know, a won converter works without signal, and a 72-tip guide covers what to know before and during the trip. The app is free to download, with a one-time Pro purchase and no subscription. It is the third travel-language app from Quantum Quacks, after Kotomaji (Japan) and Handarin (China).

Descripción corta
Dalmaji es una app de coreano para viajar a Corea en iPhone: 340 frases de viaje con audio claro, el hangul en 30 minutos, un Menu Decoder de 60 platos y un conversor de wones. Funciona sin conexión, en 12 idiomas, sin cuenta, sin anuncios y sin suscripción.
Descripción larga
Casi todas las apps de coreano enseñan el alfabeto y se quedan ahí, y casi ninguna guía de frases te enseña a leer. Dalmaji (달맞이, «salir a ver la luna») hace las dos cosas, pensando en los días que estás de verdad en Corea. Tiene 340 frases en 13 situaciones de viaje, cada una con hangul, romanización oficial, una lectura fácil pensada para hispanohablantes y audio claro, siempre en el registro cortés que se espera de un visitante. Su sección «Hangul en 30 minutos» recorre el alfabeto de 40 letras, una tabla silábica y un curso rápido de seis lecciones que termina con un examen de 12 carteles reales. Un Menu Decoder explica 60 platos y cómo pedirlos, 90 palabras Konglish convierten el hangul en inglés que ya conoces, el conversor de wones funciona sin cobertura y una guía de 72 consejos cubre el antes y el durante del viaje. Se descarga gratis, con un pago único Pro y sin suscripción. Es la tercera app de viaje e idiomas de Quantum Quacks, después de Kotomaji (Japón) y Handarin (China).

Dalmaji launches on the App Store: Korean for travellers who want to read the menu, not just say hello
Quantum Quacks, an independent studio from Spain, has released Dalmaji, a Korean travel app for iPhone. Dalmaji combines a phrasebook of 340 travel phrases with a short course that teaches the Hangul alphabet in about 30 minutes, so visitors can both speak and read in Korea.
Each phrase comes with Hangul, official romanization, an easy reading and clear audio, in the polite register expected from a visitor. The app also includes a Menu Decoder for 60 Korean dishes, 90 Konglish loanwords, a won converter with 23 currencies and a 72-tip travel guide. Everything works offline, and the interface is available in 12 languages.
Dalmaji is free to download on the App Store for iPhone (iOS 17 or later), with an optional one-time Pro purchase and no subscription. An Android version is coming soon. Dalmaji follows Kotomaji (Japanese) and Handarin (Mandarin Chinese), the studio's earlier travel-language apps.
