Years are used just like weeks, which means that you must use the Sino-Korean numbers. When putting a number before "년," it doesn't matter if you use the word or the numeral:
저는 3년 동안 형을 안 만났어요 - I didn't meet my brother for 3 years
저는 10년 동안 한국어를 공부했어요 - I studied Korean for 10 years저는 삼 년 동안 형을 안 만났어요 - I didn't meet my brother for three years
저는 십 년 동안 한국어를 공부했어요 - I studied Korean for ten yearsHowever, if you want to say "last/next year" in Korean, you can't use "지난/다음 년." Instead, you must use separate words:
작년 - last year
내년 - next yearFor example:
나는 내년에 한국에 갈 거야 - I will go to Korea next year
그 사람은 작년에 죽었어요 - That person died last year
