The heart of the brand. Langu turns a confusing language-learning journey into a clear path. The motif is a dog, the companion who is always by your side.

ToryTeacher · Sage

In charge of teacher-facing content, Tory explains how lesson plans, example sentences, and activities are generated. The glasses stand for knowledge and structure.

Bomi carries the learner’s feelings. “It’s fine to get it wrong. Just try.” The name comes from the Korean word 봄 (bom), meaning “spring” and symbolizing a new beginning, and the motif is a rabbit.
