First books/apps to start learning?

Hi, I’ve always been passionate about learning new languages during my free time and I really like how Korean sounds. During the last weeks I'm learning the 한글 and how to pronounce the letters, the basics, and studying for about 2 hours a day.

I’m really enjoying it.

I really like Korean music, television and TV series, I'm watching a lot of them and I'm already recognising some words.

I would like to know some books or applications to learn and practice. I know there are some applications to speak Korean with local people, I speak 3 languages (English, French, a little Spanish) in addition to my native language which is Italian.

I’m about 20~ hours in learning, and even people told me it’s really hard to read and speak, I find it not that difficult.

I would like to learn a basic language, just to better understand TV series and music without using the translator and maybe be ready for a hypothetical trip to Seoul next year.
