Learning Words Naturally

In my year of studying Korean, I have noticed that I have been able to learn new vocabulary in certain ways. I found that when I learn new vocabulary with various media such as music videos and TV shows they seem to stick in my memory much more faster and longer.

I remember I first learned -때문에 from the Miss A "Breathe" video. Ever since, 때문에 has played a concrete part in my word bank. Today, while watching Star King, I learned the word 오산 (incorrect), from the children that were currently guests on the show.

I do find studying from textbooks effective of course, but it just takes a little more effort on my side to memorize the word completely.
