معنی
A polite wish for someone to remain in good health.
زمینه فرهنگی
Health is often linked to food. If someone tells you '건강하게 지내세요,' they often follow it with '밥 잘 챙겨 먹고' (Make sure you eat well). Filial piety (Hyo) dictates that children should wish for their parents' health constantly, as a child's own well-being is seen as a gift from the parents. The abbreviation '건행' (Geon-haeng) has become a cultural phenomenon among older generations due to trot singer Lim Young-woong using it as his catchphrase. Koreans are very sensitive to the 'change of seasons' (환절기). Health wishes peak during these times to avoid the flu.
The 'Safe' Choice
If you are unsure whether to use '건강하세요' or '건강하게 지내세요,' always pick the latter. It sounds more thoughtful and educated.
Don't use with 'Stay'
Avoid saying '건강하게 있으세요.' While 'stay' works in English, '지내다' is the only natural verb for this in Korean.

Add a reason
It sounds more sincere if you add a reason, like '날씨가 추우니까' (Since the weather is cold).
The 'Geon-haeng' Trend
If you are talking to older Koreans (50+), using '건행!' might make them laugh and think you are very culturally savvy.
