Colors come up constantly shopping, describing things, understanding signs. Here's every color in Korean with the pronunciation and a note on how Korean color words actually work.
색 (saek) means color. Most Korean colors are formed by adding 색 to a root word. 빨강 means red (the root), 빨간색 means the color red. In conversation Koreans often drop 색 and just say 빨간 or 파란 both are correct.
