MINA, remember one thing before you try to use korean on someone.korea is a very small country, but has many,many,many different accents depending on the region, and also within the region the different areas have slighty different accents aswell.what I'm trying to say is, they may understand you, but you may not understand them.

The turtle ship (also known as Geobukseon or Kobukson by its Korean name) was a large warship belonging to the Panokseon class in Korea that was used under the Joseon Dynasty between the 15th century and 18th century.

Though the turtle ship is famous for its helping the Koreans to win sea battles against Japanese ships during the Japanese invasions of Korea (1592-1598), the mainstay of the Korean navy in the war remained the panokseon warship.
