성실하다
성실하다 در ۳۰ ثانیه
- 성실하다 means being diligent, sincere, and faithful in your duties.
- It is a highly respected character trait in Korean society and workplaces.
- The word combines 'sincerity' (誠) and 'reality/fruit' (實) in its Hanja roots.
- Commonly used to describe reliable students, employees, and trustworthy partners.
The Korean adjective 성실하다 (seong-sil-ha-da) is a cornerstone of Korean social and professional ethics. Rooted deeply in Confucian values, it represents a blend of diligence, integrity, and faithfulness. When you describe someone as 성실하다, you aren't just saying they work hard; you are making a profound statement about their character and reliability. It suggests that the person is consistent, honest, and can be trusted to fulfill their duties regardless of supervision. In Korean society, being called 성실한 사람 (a sincere/diligent person) is often considered one of the highest compliments a student, employee, or partner can receive.
- Core Nuance
- It encompasses more than just 'hard work'; it implies a moral commitment to one's tasks and a lack of deceit in one's efforts.
- Cultural Weight
- In South Korea's competitive education and job markets, '성실성' (sincerity/diligence) is often the primary criterion for evaluation, sometimes even outweighing raw talent.
그는 매일 아침 일찍 출근하는 아주 성실한 직원입니다.
The word is frequently used in formal evaluations, such as school report cards (생활기록부) and job performance reviews. It is also a key trait sought in romantic partners, as it implies stability and faithfulness. Unlike '부지런하다' (to be busy/industrious), which focuses on the speed or amount of activity, 성실하다 focuses on the quality of the heart and the consistency of the action over time. It is the opposite of being lazy (게으르다) or insincere (불성실하다).
학생은 공부를 성실하게 해야 합니다.
- Social Context
- Used in eulogies to honor a life lived with integrity and hard work, or in wedding speeches to describe the groom or bride's character.
제 남편은 가족을 위해 평생을 성실하게 살았습니다.
어떤 일을 맡기든 그는 항상 성실하다.
성공의 비결은 성실함에 있다.
Using 성실하다 correctly involves understanding its grammatical flexibility as a descriptive verb (adjective). It can be used to describe people, their attitudes, or the way they perform actions. Because it describes a state of character, it is most commonly used in the present tense to define someone's habitual nature. However, it can also be transformed into an adverb, 성실하게, to describe how an action is performed, or a noun, 성실성, to discuss the concept of sincerity itself.
- Adjective Form (Describing People)
- Use '성실한' before a noun. Example: 성실한 학생 (A diligent student). This is the most common way to attribute this trait to someone.
그녀는 회사에서 가장 성실한 사원으로 뽑혔다.
- Adverbial Form (Describing Actions)
- Use '성실하게' to describe how someone works or lives. Example: 성실하게 일하다 (To work diligently).
우리는 주어진 업무를 성실하게 수행해야 합니다.
- Noun Form (The Abstract Concept)
- Use '성실성' or '성실함'. Example: 성실성이 부족하다 (To lack sincerity/diligence).
면접관들은 지원자의 성실성을 높게 평가했다.
작은 일에도 성실한 태도를 보여주세요.
그는 성실하게 답변에 응했습니다.
You will encounter 성실하다 in a wide variety of contexts, from highly formal settings to intimate personal conversations. It is a word that carries significant weight in defining one's social standing and reputation. In professional environments, it is the gold standard for performance reviews. In personal life, it is a key descriptor for a reliable friend or family member. Let's look at the specific domains where this word is most prevalent.
- In the Workplace
- Managers use it to describe employees who never miss deadlines and maintain high standards without being asked. It's often found in '인재상' (the type of talent a company seeks) on corporate websites.
우리 회사는 성실하고 책임감 있는 사람을 찾습니다.
- In Schools and Education
- Teachers use it in report cards to describe students who attend class regularly and complete all homework. It is a key metric for '출결' (attendance) and '태도' (attitude).
민수는 학교 생활이 매우 성실하다.
- In Personal Relationships
- When parents talk about a potential son-in-law or daughter-in-law, '성실함' is usually the first quality they look for. It implies the person will be a good provider and a faithful partner.
그 사람은 참 성실해서 믿음이 가요.
매일 운동하는 걸 보니 정말 성실하시네요.
그는 성실한 노력 끝에 꿈을 이루었다.
While 성실하다 is a positive word, learners often confuse it with other terms or use it in grammatically incorrect ways. Understanding these pitfalls will help you sound more like a native speaker and avoid subtle misunderstandings in professional or social settings.
- Confusing with '열심히'
- '열심히' is an adverb meaning 'hard' or 'zealously.' '성실하다' is an adjective about character. You can '열심히' work on a single project, but you are '성실하다' if you work hard every day for years.
Incorrect: 그는 아주 열심히하다. (Wrong usage as an adjective).
Correct: 그는 아주 성실하다.
- Overusing it for 'Smart'
- Sometimes learners use '성실하다' to mean someone is good at their job. However, someone can be '성실하다' (diligent) but not necessarily '유능하다' (competent). Don't use it if you specifically mean someone is clever or skilled.
- Confusing with '친절하다'
- Learners sometimes mix up 'being sincere' with 'being kind.' A person can be 성실하다 (diligent/faithful) but very cold or strict. '친절하다' is for kindness/friendliness.
그 선생님은 무섭지만 매우 성실하시다.
단순히 바쁜 것과 성실한 것은 다릅니다.
그는 성실하지 못한 태도로 비난을 받았다.
To truly master Korean, you need to know the synonyms and related terms for 성실하다. Depending on the context—whether you're talking about work, personality, or a specific action—different words might be more appropriate. Here is a comparison of similar words that often overlap with '성실하다'.
- 성실하다 vs. 부지런하다
- '부지런하다' focuses on being industrious, moving quickly, and doing many things (diligent/hardworking). '성실하다' focuses on the moral quality of being faithful and sincere in one's duties.
- 성실하다 vs. 꾸준하다
- '꾸준하다' means 'steady' or 'consistent.' It is often used for habits like exercising or studying. '성실하다' is a broader character trait that includes being '꾸준하다'.
그는 꾸준히 노력하는 성실한 사람입니다.
- 성실하다 vs. 신실하다
- '신실하다' (faithful/trustworthy) is often used in religious contexts or to describe deep interpersonal trust. It is more formal and 'heavy' than '성실하다'.
착실하다 (Chaksilhada): This means to be steady, reliable, and down-to-earth. It's often used for young people who are sensible and hardworking.
- 정직하다 (Honest)
- Being '성실하다' implies honesty because you aren't cutting corners. However, '정직하다' is specifically about telling the truth.
성실함은 모든 미덕의 기초입니다.
그는 성실함 하나로 자수성가했다.

نحوه استفاده
Very High in both spoken and written Korean.
-
Using '열심히' as an adjective.
→
그는 성실하다. (He is diligent.)
'열심히' is an adverb and cannot be used with '이다' or as a descriptive verb. Use '성실하다' instead.
-
Saying '성실하고 있어요'.
→
성실해요. (I am diligent.)
Adjectives in Korean cannot take the progressive '-고 있다' form. Use the simple present tense.
-
Confusing 성실하다 with 친절하다.
→
그는 성실하지만 친절하지 않아요. (He is diligent but not kind.)
Learners often think all 'good' adjectives are interchangeable. '성실하다' is about work/duty, '친절하다' is about kindness.
-
Using '성실한' to mean 'smart'.
→
그는 똑똑하고 성실하다. (He is smart and diligent.)
'성실하다' refers to effort and character, not intelligence. A person can be diligent but struggle with learning.
-
Misspelling as '성실이다'.
→
성실하다. (To be sincere.)
Learners sometimes try to use the noun '성실' with the copula '이다'. While possible in specific contexts, the standard adjective is '성실하다'.
نکات
Use it in Evaluations
When writing a peer review or a recommendation, '성실하다' is the most powerful word to describe a reliable colleague. It carries more weight than just 'works hard.'
Adjective vs. Adverb
Remember that 성실한 is the adjective (성실한 사람) and 성실하게 is the adverb (성실하게 일하다). Don't mix them up in your sentences.
The 'Injaesang' (Ideal Talent)
If you are applying for a job in Korea, look for this word on the company's 'About Us' page. Emphasizing your '성실성' will align you with their values.
Don't confuse with 'Hard'
In English, we say 'I work hard.' In Korean, you can say '열심히 일해요' (I work hard) or '성실하게 일해요' (I work sincerely/diligently). The latter sounds more professional.
The 'Ng' sound
Make sure the 'ng' (ㅇ) in 'Seong' is clear. If it sounds like 'Son,' it might be confused with other words. It should be a soft nasal sound at the back of the throat.
Noun forms
Use '성실함' for the 'state' of being sincere and '성실성' for the 'quality' or 'trait' of sincerity. They are often interchangeable, but '성실성' sounds slightly more formal.
Building Trust
If you want to build trust with a Korean person, show them your '성실함' through small actions like being on time and following through on promises.
School Life
Students are often told '성실하게 살아라' (Live sincerely/diligently). It is considered the foundation for a successful adult life.
Sincerity vs. Result
Even if the result isn't perfect, you can still be praised for being '성실하다' if you gave your best and honest effort. It's a 'process-oriented' praise.
Avoiding 'Bul-seong-sil'
Being labeled as '불성실하다' (insincere) is a serious blow to one's reputation in Korea. It implies a lack of character, not just a one-time mistake.
حفظ کنید
روش یادسپاری
Think of 'Seong' as 'Song' and 'Sil' as 'Seal'. A singer (Song) who performs with a 'Seal' of quality every night is '성실하다'.
تداعی تصویری
Imagine a farmer who goes out to the field every single day, rain or shine, to tend to his crops until they bear fruit (實).
شبکه واژگان
چالش
Try to use '성실하다' in a sentence when describing your best friend's personality to someone else today.
ریشه کلمه
Derived from the Hanja characters 誠 (성 - Seong) meaning 'sincerity, truth, or faith' and 實 (실 - Sil) meaning 'fruit, reality, or solid.'
معنای اصلی: The original meaning implies 'truth that manifests as a solid result' or 'living in accordance with the truth.'
Sino-Korean (Hanja)بافت فرهنگی
Be careful not to use it sarcastically, as it can sound insulting to someone's life effort. In very rare cases, calling someone 'overly 성실' might imply they lack creativity or flexibility.
While English uses 'diligent' or 'hardworking,' '성실하다' has a stronger moral and 'character-defining' nuance that 'hardworking' sometimes lacks.

سوالات متداول
10 سوالNot exactly. While 'hardworking' is part of it, 성실하다 implies a deeper character trait of being sincere, honest, and reliable. It's about *how* you work as much as *how much* you work. A person who works hard only when the boss is looking is not 성실하다.
No, 성실하다 is reserved for humans (or sometimes personified animals in stories) because it involves a moral choice and sincerity. For a machine that works well, you would use '성능이 좋다' or '잘 돌아간다'.
Both are adverbs. 성실하게 is more common in daily conversation. 성실히 is slightly more formal and is frequently used in written documents, speeches, or official instructions.
Yes, it is a very high compliment in Korea. It suggests the person has a strong character and is trustworthy. It is often the best thing you can say about an employee or a student.
No. 성실하다 is an adjective (descriptive verb), and in Korean, adjectives cannot take the progressive '-고 있다' form. You should say '성실해요' or '성실하게 생활하고 있어요'.
Yes, it can imply that someone is faithful and steady in a relationship, although '신실하다' or '일편단심' (single-hearted devotion) are more specific terms for romance.
The most direct opposite is '불성실하다' (insincere/negligent). '게으르다' (lazy) is also an antonym but focuses more on the lack of energy/action.
You can write '성실함을 바탕으로...' (Based on my sincerity/diligence...) or '매사에 성실한 태도로...' (With a sincere attitude in everything...). Always back it up with a specific achievement.
Yes, knowing that 'Seong' (誠) means truth/sincerity helps you understand why it's different from just being 'busy' (부지런하다). It's about the 'truth' of your efforts.
Yes, if you do your hobby with great dedication and consistency, you can say you do it '성실하게'. For example, '성실하게 피아노를 연습해요' (I practice the piano diligently).

Summary
The key takeaway for '성실하다' is that it represents a long-term, moral commitment to hard work and honesty. It is not just about working hard for a day, but about being a reliable person every single day. Example: '성실한 사람이 성공한다' (A sincere/diligent person succeeds).
- 성실하다 means being diligent, sincere, and faithful in your duties.
- It is a highly respected character trait in Korean society and workplaces.
- The word combines 'sincerity' (誠) and 'reality/fruit' (實) in its Hanja roots.
- Commonly used to describe reliable students, employees, and trustworthy partners.
Use it in Evaluations
When writing a peer review or a recommendation, '성실하다' is the most powerful word to describe a reliable colleague. It carries more weight than just 'works hard.'
Adjective vs. Adverb
Remember that 성실한 is the adjective (성실한 사람) and 성실하게 is the adverb (성실하게 일하다). Don't mix them up in your sentences.
The 'Injaesang' (Ideal Talent)
If you are applying for a job in Korea, look for this word on the company's 'About Us' page. Emphasizing your '성실성' will align you with their values.
Don't confuse with 'Hard'
In English, we say 'I work hard.' In Korean, you can say '열심히 일해요' (I work hard) or '성실하게 일해요' (I work sincerely/diligently). The latter sounds more professional.
مثال
그는 모든 일에 성실한 사람입니다.
