Wishing someone a pleasant weekend.
خلفية ثقافية
The 'Pali-pali' (hurry-hurry) culture means Koreans work very hard during the week. The weekend is sacred for 'healing' and visiting 'Hot-ple' (hot places/trendy cafes). Leaving the office on Friday is a delicate social ritual. You must acknowledge your colleagues' hard work before wishing them a good weekend. In KakaoTalk, people often use stickers of sleeping or eating characters along with '좋은 주말 되세요' to emphasize relaxation. Some older Koreans or teachers might correct '되세요' to '보내세요', arguing that you can't 'become' a weekend. It's a common debate in Korean grammar.
