AN IMPORTANT NOTE: ELIMINATING THE SUBJECT

One thing that I have yet to tell you is that Korean people often omit the topic/subject of the sentence – especially when the topic/subject is 'I.' Korean people love making their sentences as short as possible, and this is one additional way of doing it. In most cases, when the subject/topic can be inferred by the situation, Korean people drop it entirely from the sentence. For example, instead of saying:

저는 아침식사를 안 먹었어요 - I didn't eat breakfast

They would say:
아침식사를 안 먹었어요 - I didn't eat breakfast

Both are perfect sentences and both can be used, but you should be aware that Korean people often get rid of the subject/topic altogether when speaking.
