This thread is off-topic and should belong
here instead.
I would also like to point out that Korean also uses small amounts of Hanja, so writing Korean (Hangul) is sort of like writing Japanese (Hiragana). With emphasis on "sort of".
Now, to get back to your question...
When I was learning Japanese, my Chinese background helped me identify kanji easier. That said, they were some false friends like 「大家」 ("大家" means "everyone" in Chinese), and 「邪魔」. (looks suspiciously close to "恶魔")
