Learn Korean Body Parts Through a Fun Song

Learning Korean can be fun and easy, especially when using songs!

In this post, we introduce a simple and catchy Korean song that helps beginners and children learn body part names in Korean.

The song “머리 어깨 무릎 발 (Head, Shoulders, Knees, and Toes)” is one of the most popular children’s songs in Korea. It’s great for teaching vocabulary through movement and rhythm. As learners sing along and follow the actions, they naturally remember each word and its meaning.

This method of learning — combining music, repetition, and physical movement — helps improve both memory and pronunciation. It’s especially helpful for those who are just starting to learn Korean or teaching Korean to kids.

In the lyrics below, you’ll find each body part word in both Korean and English. You can sing along while pointing to each body part — making the learning experience visual, verbal, and physical.
