Smile Korean Coffee Chat #10 | Why Do Koreans Ask Your Age So Quickly?

Have you ever wondered why Koreans ask your age so soon after meeting you? In this episode, we’ll talk about Korean age culture and how age affects the way people speak to each other. I’ll explain the difference between 존댓말 and 반말, introduce words like 언니, 오빠, 형, and 누나, and share why age plays such an important role in everyday Korean conversations. Let’s have a relaxed chat and learn more about Korean culture together! You can slow down the playback to 0.8x or 0.9x if you’d like to practice listening at your own pace.
