Is Korean easier?  Is it similar?

I didn't know that Milutinovic was/is in China, he had to be their national coach or something...

After all, what the letters mean is not the first thing to be concerned about when they are doing this, I think.
Btw, Nole's name transcribed in Korean "노박 조코비치"
노-No / 박-vak / 조-Djo / 코-ko / 비-vi / 치-c
I've heard Korean isn't easy for foreigners to learn, but I'm almost sure it's still a lot easier than Chinese which has four intonations as well to make it even more complicated.
