There are many differences between Korean and English. One of them is a syntax. For instance, "I love you", this sentence is composed of the subject(S), verb(V) and an object(O). However, "나는 너를 사랑해(it means I love you)", this sentence is composed of the subject(S), an object(O) and verb(V). If you want to learn Korean, you'd better know about this basically. ^^
