From my many years of experience as a British RP pronunciation coach, the /ʌ/ sound is one of the most difficult sounds in the English accent for non-natives to pronounce correctly. Many students don't even realise they are making a mistake! This short vowel is EXTREMELY common and in many high-frequency words in English.
