In Korean the names of the days of the week

In Korean the names of the days of the week are simple to memorize and the word structure works just like english. The word for day in korean is Yoil (Yo-eel) and just like english the word day goes at the end of the word.

Example: Monday. So in korean its the same thing. Example: Wolyoil.

Sunday - Ilyoil (Eel-yoh-eel) 일요일 일 = 해 = Sun

Monday - Wolyoil (Wole-yoh-eel) 월요일 월 = 달 = Moon

Tuesday - Hwayoil (Wha-yoh-eel) 화요일 화 = 불 = Fire -> 화성 Mars

Wednesday - Suyoil (Su-yoh-eel) 수요일 수 = 물 = Water -> 수성 Mercury

Thursday - Mokyoil (Mo-kyoh-eel) 목요일 목 = 나무 = Tree /Wood -> 목성 Jupiter

Friday - Kumyoil (Kum-yoh-eel) 금요일 금 = 쇠 = Iron/Metal/Gold -> 금성 Venus

Saturday - Toyoil (To-yoh-eel) 토요일 토 = 흙 = Soil/Earth -> 토성 Saturn
