The title of the Korean people 한국사람들의 호칭

 

 

Let me briefly explain the Korean title that you know.

 

 

First, it's "Oppa". "Oppa" is a title that only women can use. It's also only younger female can use it to older male.

 

 

 

But if you use that 'oppa' to someone who are big age different, It's a big rudeness.

 

 

Don't say that to people who are too age difference.

 

 

You can hear the sound of a pervert.

 

 

 

Next is 'Nuna'. 'Nuna' is a title that only men can use. It is also only younger male can use it to older female.

 

 

 

and If a female need to call someone who older female, then you have to use 'ennie'.

 

 

 

 

if you are man and need to call older male the time, then you have to use 'Hyeong'

 

 

 

But these titles are only for close people!!

If you say this to a stranger, it can be very rude to the person involved.

And if someone you're not close to forces you to call 'Hyeong,' 'Nuna,' 'Unnie,' and 'Oppa', they are should also be suspected of being a pervert.

That's why it's never used in public relations.

 

 

 

People who see it for the first time usually say '~nim' or '~ssi' after their names. For example, when I first saw a person named Anna,

You can say 'Anna Nim' or 'Anna Ssi' until he says yes.

It has the same meaning as 'Mr' in English.

When you come to Korea, you can be careful about this.

 

 

 

but Koreans are also very flexible, so they can understand you because you came from forign.

so if you want to say that, just do say that

but if you want to live in there, then you have to remember this.
