¿QUÉ SIGNFICAN ESTAS PALABRAS COREANAS? | HelloTaniaChan - YouTube

Hello doramaniacs! Today, as a request from a lot fo you,

I'm going to teach you what do the most commonly heard words in kdramas mean

MEANING OF THE MOST COMMON KOREAN WORDS IN KDRAMAS

On the website I also wrote an article about this topic and there you can find a lot more words than what I'm going to mention here

So, somewhere around here the link will come up

just in case you're interested in going to the website and read the article

Having said that, let's get it started!

Let's start with words used to call people

The most common one is Oppa

And what does oppa mean?

Oppa means older brother, and it's a word used by women for men very close to them

Oh oppa, always handsome. Oppaaaa

Kim Soo Hyun is my boyfriend, that'ss why I can call him Oppa :D

Number 2, Unnie

It means older sister, and it's also used by women for other women who are close to them and who are dear to them

Hello unnie

What? What did you call me?

What's that?

Altough I think is better if we use this with a korean person who knows about this

Let's continue with Hyung

This word also means older brother

however this one is used by men for other men who are close to them

Let's say it's the male version of unnie

-Hyun -Tanio

A joke from a previous parody :P

The next word is Chingu

And this one means friend

It's used mostly by young people for their friends

Annyeong chingu

Now let's start with expressions

A very common one in kdramas is Omo

It's like saying Oh My God and you can use it when something surprises you or you just remembered something very important

Sexy, free and single, I'm ready to... omo! I forgot to turn off the stove!

Don't let your beans burn, it's very important!

Next is Ottoke

This expression means Oh no, now what?

And you can use it in situations like:

Ottoke, I forgot my history book! It's the end of the world!

Another word to express surprise is Chincha

This word means 'Really?'

When something surprises you a lot and you're so happy you can't believe it you can use this word

Let's watch an example

Tania, today we're going for tacos

I love tacos <3

Another commonly heard word in doramas is Daebak

It's a very common korean word and it means Wow and you can use it like this

Daebak, Lee Min Ho will be starring another drama! Yes!

A word that we hear a lot in kdramas and that everyone must know already is Hwaiting

This is an expression to cheer up and it means You Can Do It

Hey Tania, I'm leaving. I have an exam, wish me luck

Oh my god, this is the perfect moment to use : Hwaiting!

Next is a cordial word: Annyong

This word mean hello, but attention: you can't use it to greet anyone

Annyong is a word you can only use with people close to you

and who are the same age as you or close

To greet an adult you say: Annyong Haseyo

And you make a small bow like the one I just did

Another cordial word that it's commonly heard in kdramas is Kamsamnida

And this word means Thank You
