[A/N: Wazzup guys. I just turned 17 yesterday. Yeah Im old.Huhu. So here is my treat to everyone, a short edition of Korean Slangs. I know you heard these things from dramas and I want to share their meanings and how you could use them in conversations. Have fun and dont forget to VOTE. SHARE. COMMENT. Love you all~]
1. 짱 (jjang)— awesome, the best
“빅뱅이 짱이야” (bigbang-ee jjang-ee-ya)>> Big Bang is awesome!
“짱 맛있어!” (jjang mat-siss-o)>> It’s super delicious!
Additionally, “얼 짱” (eol-jjang) is the abbreviation of “얼굴 짱” (eol-gul jjang)means a pretty/ beautiful face.
2. 대박 (dae-bak) — great, awesome, cool
When you hear EXO is listed in the book of the Guinness World Records, you can say “우와 대박!”(oo-wa dae-bak)>> Wow! Cool!
Furthermore, you can also use “EXO 짱이야”!
3. 불금 (bul-geum) — TGIF
불금 is the shortened form of 불타는 금요일 (bul-ta-neun geum-yo-il). It literally means “burning Friday”. TGIF, indeed.
4. 헐 (heul)— OMG
You can use 헐 when you’re surprised, or in a situation when you are speechless.
When your friend tells you he/she just spent 300 dollars on Girls’ Generation merchandise, you’re speechless. Therefore, you can say “헐…”
5. 멘붕 (men-bung)— mental breakdown
멘붕 is the abbreviation of 멘탈 붕괴 (men-tal boong-gwi, mental breakdown).
When you accidentally deleted all photos of your birthday party without backing them up. In that case, it’s a 멘붕 moment there.
