معنی
To return to one's residence after being elsewhere.
زمینه فرهنگی
The 'Ondol' (floor heating) system makes 'coming home' a sensory experience of warmth. People often say '집에 오니까 따뜻하다' (It's warm since I came home). The greeting '다녀왔습니다' is mandatory. Even if no one is home, some Koreans say it out of habit to acknowledge the spirits of the house or simply to mark their return. Inviting someone to your home (집에 오라고 하다) is a major step in a friendship. Most social interactions happen in public spaces like cafes or 'pojangmacha' (street stalls). The 'delivery culture' means '집에 오다' is often timed with food arrival. People often coordinate their commute so they and the chicken arrive at the same time.
The 'Come' Rule
Always use '오다' if you are texting someone who is already at the house you are going to.
Particle Importance
Don't forget '에'. While natives skip it, using it makes you sound much more educated at the A1-A2 level.

Natural Greeting
Instead of just saying '집에 왔어요', try '다녀왔습니다' when you enter. It's the 'pro' way to say you're home.
Our House
Remember to say '우리 집' (Our house) even if you live alone. Saying '내 집' (My house) sounds a bit cold or overly possessive.
