My dad figured my obsession with Korea(n).
So he decided that I should take classes online. And I'm actually learning Korean!!!
So I decided that I should share what I've learnt with you guys!
In a sec.. -
neh = Yes.
ah-nee-oh = No.
jwe-song-ha-ji-mahn = Please.
gahm-sah-hahm-ni-da = Thank you.
chon-mahn-eh-yo = You're welcome.
sil-le-hahm-ni-da = Excuse me.
ahn-nyong-ha-se-yo = Good morning.
ahn-nyong-hee ga-se-yo = Good-bye.
naneun neoleul joh-ahae = I like you
saranghae or saranghaeyo or saranghamnida = I love you
nan neoga silh-eo = I hate you -
Aigoo: A word used to show frustration. The Korean equivalent of "aw man!" or "geez."
-
Ajumma: A Korean term for middle-aged married women. Stereotypically, these seasoned citizens have short permed hair and wear house dresses or slacks everywhere.
-
Ajusshi: Literally means 'uncle,' but is used in polite conversation to refer to a man who is older than you, and who you don't know well. A bit like calling someone "Sir" in English.
-
Andwae: Korean word meaning "no way," usually used in moments of disbelief, shock, fear, or defiance. Andwae is also one of those words you'll end up using by yourself while surfing the web and stumbling upon a scandalous story or outrageous fan fiction.
-
Cheongmal: An expression of disbelief and annoyance. Like saying "Really?!"
Chincha: An expression meaning "Are you serious?!" -
Dongsaeng: A dongsaeng is a younger friend or sibling. Anyone younger than you is considered your dongsaeng, regardless of gender. You can even use this term in a fun and sarcastically playful way, especially if you're a girl: if you're an older girl (see noona) involved with a younger guy, you can tease them by calling them "dongsaeng" instead of using their actual name.
-
Ooh this is cool! My aunt literally says aigoo all the time. How do you just say hello?
-
Chaebol: A tried-and-true character type in Korean dramas, the wealthy heir of a family conglomerate. Pretty much every Kdrama male lead ever has played a chaebol at some point.
Eomeoni: Where there is a chaebol, the eomeoni is never far behind: -
Eye smile: When a male or female smiles, their eyes become small and also form into their own smile. Usually eye smiles are a stealthy way of flirting and stealing your affections. A guy or girl can be crazy or even rude, but the moment they smile and reveal their eye smile, they're the cutest people in the universe!

I'm sorry star dust. Here's a reply.
ahn-nyong-ha-se-yo! = Hello! -
Flower boy: An incredibly attractive, model-perfect Korean guy who dresses well. F4 of Boys Over Flowers provides the ultimate example.
-
Hoobae: Refers to people with less experience in an industry, or someone younger than you.
Hul: A Korean slang word used in embarrassing or awkward situations -
Hyung: Literally older brother, but also used by Korean males to address another male older than them who they are close to.
