معنی
To have the first meal of the day.
زمینه فرهنگی
The traditional Korean breakfast is almost identical to lunch and dinner, featuring rice, soup, and side dishes. This is becoming less common among younger generations who prefer bread. Asking '아침 먹었어요?' to a colleague is a common way to show you care about their well-being and to start the workday on a friendly note. When eating breakfast with elders, you should wait for the eldest person to pick up their spoon first before you start 'eating the morning'. Convenience stores (편의점) have popularized 'Samgak-kimbap' (triangle rice balls) as a quick '아침' for busy commuters.
Drop the particle
In casual conversation, just say '아침 먹었어?' instead of '아침을 먹었어?'. It sounds much more natural.
Don't say 'Have'
Never use '가지다' (to have) for meals. It's a classic 'Konglish' mistake.
