Two ㄱ in a row, such as 악가, it will sound similar to the 'k' ending, followed by a strong 'g' sound. 악가 is similar to pronouncing 악 (with a 'k' ending) quickly followed by 가 (with a strong 'g').

Finally, at the end of a word, it will usually sound like a very light 'k' sound that is hardly noticeable.
