I've been learning korean for a while now. I'll give my 2 cents.

It's not just a dictionary but a grammar parser, see also mirinae (https://mirinae.io/), the grammar parsing tool for Korean. Korean and English are so distant that a good grammatical parsing is infinitely more helpful than a dictionary and/or translator alone.

There actually isn't any other option, free or otherwise that combines all this "easy reading and watching" tools with a good parser.

Mirinae is great and better than the tool used here but is standalone and no longer lets you view grammar explanations for free.

GPT-4 also gives good parsings but it's even more cumbersome to use individually at scale (copy/paste, ask etc)

2. another big thing here is convenience. I'm not exaggerating when i say you can cut studying time in half at least having everything in one place.
