Difference ㄱ and ㄲ
I have a little bit of a difficult question perhaps, since I am not referring to English to make something clear. Nevertheless if someone would understand me:
It seems to me that the:
ㄱ is like the g in the French word garçon (boy), or the German word gehen (to go).
ㄲ is like the k in the German word Kernkraft (nuclear power). Or the q in the Spanish phrase '¿Que tu dices?' (What are you saying?)
Is this more or less correct?

We have ㄱ,ㄲ, and ㅋ.
You know ㄱ sound accurately, but one more thing you should know is we make ㄱ related sounds including ㄲ and ㅋ, [g] sound from throat like [r] in French.
ㅋ sounds like kleine and frank in German, ㄲ is more likely [q] qui in French.
