Rocket Punching His Way Into Your Heart!
hey, i've started on learning a language recently, specifically korean. do you have any advice in learning a language that helped you that could help me as well? (i do practice daily on both reading and speaking in the language)

Firstly, motivation is super important. Every language learner, like artists, will hit a wall and burn out. They’ll feel like they’re not learning anything new, but that’s part of the process. My favorite method to employ so I don’t get burned out as easily is the Pomodoro Method

Otherwise, just keep doing what you’re doing consistently. Once you build up enough vocabulary and grammar, find interesting material in your target language and read it. If the material comes with audio and a transcript, even better. Even if you don’t understand anything, you’ll start to notice that the most important words and grammatical points will repeat. Make note those repetitions and then look them up later. 

As for learning vocabulary by itself many people use SRS (space repetition systems). They’re basically digital flashcards. Most people use Anki for desktop or Memrise on one’s browser or phone. 

Hope that helps a bit!

Cheers!
