안녕하세요. 1분한국어 아일린이에요  🙋🏻‍♀️

Do you know the meaning of "밥 먹었어요? (Did you have a meal?)"

It's a common greeting that you hear in Korean dramas, movies, and everyday life. In Korea, there are many greetings related to 밥(meal/rice)🍚.

These 밥 related expressions are rooted in the past when food in Korea was not abundant as it is today. (Sad history🥲)

🙋🏻‍♀️ Then, Let's see how to use 밥 in the greetings!

  1. 밥은 먹었어요?  (Did you have a meal?😨)

2. 다음에 같이 밥 먹어요. (Let's have a meal sometime.😨 *같이 together)

It is the most representative expression. Foreigners sometimes wait for a call after hearing this one. But, it is just a greeting that means 'see you again later' not a promise to eat together next time.

여러분, 다음에 같이 밥 먹어요~😆🍚

즐거운 한 주 시작하세요❤️

Hope you start a wonderful week!
