A very easy way to improve one's Korean vocabulary through studying Hanja. By no means do you need to memorize the characters themselves. 60% of Korean words are derived from Chinese and the characters are almost always pronounced the same way in every Korean word that they appear in, so knowing the sound should be enough to guess the meaning of words that you have never heard. As an aid, when viewing vocabulary that contains Hanja, the characters' definitions are displayed.
