I’m learning/taking/having Korean this year. Which is correct? Thanks!
 
The first two are OK- the third sounds like a dinner option to me.

If we are talking about foreign language, can you understand that I’m going to take an Korean course this year?

Yes, but if you want to use 'having', say 'I'm having Korean lessons this year'.

To sum up:

I'm learning Korean.
I'm taking a Korean course.
I'm having Korean lessons.

One thing that was really a turning point for me was when I learned Spanish. I was always kind of scared of learning a foreign language , yet I was really envious of kids who could speak another language. But when I started learning Spanish, I found I was actually pretty good at it, and the moment I reached that breakthrough stage – you know , when you discover you can actually speak and communicate with people in the language- I felt really proud of myself. I realized that learning a foreign language wasn’t impossible thing after all. Now I can speak three : Spanish, Italian, and German. And I’m ....... Korean this year.
a. Learning b.taking c. Having d. All are correct
please choose

Read my summary, then choose for yourself.
