Sentence structure
Sentence structure in Korean is:

Subject - Object - Verb (Predicate)

Subject and Object are facultative. So does that mean th only fixed component is the predicate?
Where do we put the others? (like an indication of time, place or adverbs, etc.)

Answer

The most common structure in English is:

noun - verb - direct object

as in "I ate the sandwich."

adjectives usually go in front of the nouns they modify

as in "I ate the hot sandwich."

Adverbs usually go in front of the verbs they modify

as in "I quickly ate the hot sandwich."

Adverbs can move around. This would also be considered normal

"I ate the hot sandwich quickly."

Adjectives are in front of nouns. You would NOT say:

"I ate the sandwich hot."
