20 - i ship (이십)

30 - sam ship (삼십)

40 - sa ship (사십)

50 - o ship (오십)

60 - yuk ship (육십)

70 - chil ship (칠십)

80 - pal ship (팔십)

90 - gu ship (구십)

100 - bek ()

200 - i bek (이백)

300 - sam bek (삼백)

For numbers 20 - 90, it’s the # plus 10. Ex: 20 = two () + ten (). To say something like 24 (이십사), it’s 20 (이십) + 4 (). 100 is just bek (). It’s not il bek, but just bek. However from 200 - 900, it’s the # plus 100. For example, 300 (삼백) = 3 () + 100 ().
