Bedeutung
Asking for a suggested place to meet with someone.
Kultureller Hintergrund
Koreans often meet at specific subway exits. For example, 'Gangnam Station Exit 10' is a legendary meeting spot. If you ask '어디에서 만날까요?', don't be surprised if the answer is a number! The 'Middle Point' (중간 지점) is a key concept. People will calculate the travel time for both parties to find a fair location. Cafe culture is huge. Most meetings that aren't for meals happen in cafes. '어디에서 만날까요?' often implies 'Which cafe shall we go to?'. Pali-Pali (Hurry-Hurry) culture means that once the location is set, people expect you to be there exactly on time, often texting 'Where are you?' if you are 1 minute late.
The 'Exit' Strategy
When someone suggests a subway station, always follow up by asking which exit (몇 번 출구).
Don't forget the '에서'
Using '에' instead of '에서' is the #1 giveaway that you are a beginner.
