Don't think 'oo', think more 'eu' when you say the 'u' part? Lol.

I don't know if you meant this, but one should think 'ue' as opposed to 'eu'. 'ue' has the same pronunciation a 'oo' but is much shorter and direct, which is what you want in something like 'kudasai' 'ku' should be short and direct like 'kue'. I think that's what Jeongg meant but he probably just accidentally put 'eu' which in my opinion sounds alot like the japanese 'yu'. That sound right?
