معنی
To operate a vehicle.
زمینه فرهنگی
The 'Substitute Driver' (대리 운전) service is a staple of Korean social life. If you drink, you call a service, and a driver is dispatched to drive you home in your own car. Driver's licenses are a rite of passage for high school graduates, but many city dwellers in Seoul rely on the excellent public transport and remain 'Jang-rong Un-jeon' (Closet Drivers) who have a license but never drive. Parking manners are crucial. It is standard practice to leave your phone number on the dashboard in case your car blocks someone else in a tight parking spot. The 'Palli-Palli' (Hurry-Hurry) culture often manifests on the road as aggressive driving or quick lane changes. New drivers often put '초보 운전' (Beginner) stickers to ask for patience.
Drop the particle
In casual conversation, just say '운전해요' instead of '운전을 해요'. It sounds much more natural.
Bikes aren't cars
Never use '운전하다' for a bicycle. You will sound like a robot or a very confused person.
