According to the Hangul chart on Wikipedia, it's the "eo" sound. Of course, Korean always sounds astronomically different from the romanization of it, which always throws me off, so we might both be correct.

ㅓ is pronounced more like "aw". Even though text books and stuff say it is said like "uh" as in the u in umbrella,... it's not. When people try to "romanize (?)" it,.... it honestly isn't correct. It sounds nothing like it! lol

Example:

저. People will write it like "cho". But it is said like "jaw" but the J is a cross sound between a CH and a J... so it's confusing.

Best way to learn the way Korean is pronounced, is to listen to it. Not read the "prounciation guide".

It took me a while to find a website that said it right, but I found one! lol
