It depends on the word.

oe is pronounced oo in shoe, but is pronounced as a long o sound in hoe.

For the eo sound, both letters are pronounced, as in eon.

A good hint is that most dipthongs (2 vowel sounds together) only pronounce the first vowel and the second is silent. There are many exceptions, but it is a good place to start.

@professordara So the highlighted vowels are sharing a very similar pronunciations and that's a bit confusing! 😄 .

Korean pronunciation of vowels is different and I am only familiar with one:

eo is pronounced as English u as in the word sung or up
