걱정거리 در ۳۰ ثانیه

걱정거리 refers to a specific source or matter of worry.
It combines '걱정' (worry) with '-거리' (material/subject).
Commonly used to identify personal, financial, or social problems.
Pairs with verbs like '생기다' (arise) and '털어놓다' (confess).

The word 걱정거리 (Geok-jeong-geo-ri) is a compound noun in Korean that specifically identifies a source or a matter of worry. To understand this word deeply, one must look at its components: 걱정 (worry/anxiety) and the suffix -거리 (material/stuff/subject). When these two combine, they transform the abstract feeling of anxiety into a concrete 'item' or 'matter' that occupies one's mind. It is not just the act of worrying, but the specific thing that is causing it. For English speakers, it is best translated as 'a source of concern,' 'a matter of worry,' or 'troubles.'

Linguistic Nuance: While '걱정' refers to the emotion or the state of being worried, '걱정거리' refers to the external object or situation. For example, if you are worried about money, the lack of money is the '걱정거리'.

요즘 취업이 가장 큰 걱정거리예요. (Getting a job is the biggest worry these days.)

In Korean society, expressing one's '걱정거리' is a common way to build intimacy or seek advice. It is frequently used in domestic settings where parents might refer to their children's education or health as their primary '걱정거리'. The term has a slightly heavier weight than '고민거리' (a matter of deliberation), as '걱정' implies a level of emotional distress or fear of a negative outcome. You will hear this word in hospital waiting rooms, office breakrooms, and late-night conversations between friends.

Cultural Weight: Koreans often use this word to show empathy. Asking '무슨 걱정거리라도 있어?' (Do you have some kind of worry?) is a standard way to check on someone's well-being.

자식은 부모에게 평생 걱정거리다. (Children are a lifelong source of worry for parents.)

Historically, the concept of '걱정거리' was often linked to survival—harvests, health, and family safety. In modern Korea, the '걱정거리' has shifted toward competitive education, real estate prices, and career stability. Despite the shift in topics, the word remains a central pillar of Korean emotional vocabulary, bridging the gap between internal feelings and external realities.

Using 걱정거리 correctly involves pairing it with specific verbs that describe how worries appear, grow, or are resolved. Because it is a noun, it often functions as the subject or object of a sentence. Common verbs include 생기다 (to arise/appear), 늘다 (to increase), 없애다 (to remove), and 털어놓다 (to confess/pour out).

Common Verb Pairings: 1. 걱정거리가 생기다: A worry has come up. 2. 걱정거리를 덜다: To lessen one's worries. 3. 걱정거리가 끊이지 않다: Worries never end.

돈 문제가 큰 걱정거리가 되었어요. (Money issues have become a big source of worry.)

When you want to describe the magnitude of the worry, you can use adjectives like 큰 (big), 사소한 (trivial), or 끊임없는 (endless). In formal settings, you might say '걱정거리를 해소하다' (to resolve concerns), while in casual speech, you might say '걱정거리가 태산이다' (to have a mountain of worries). Notice how the particle -가/이 is used when the worry is the subject (something that exists), while -를/을 is used when you are doing something to the worry.

친구에게 걱정거리를 솔직하게 말했어요. (I told my friend my worries honestly.)

In complex sentences, '걱정거리' can be used to explain motivations. '걱정거리를 줄이기 위해서...' (In order to reduce worries...). It is also used to categorize different types of stress: '경제적 걱정거리' (economic worries), '건강상의 걱정거리' (health-related worries). By using this word, you provide a clear target for the anxiety, making the conversation more focused and concrete than simply saying 'I am worried.'

You will encounter 걱정거리 in various layers of Korean life. In K-Dramas, it is a staple of dialogue between family members. A mother might sigh and say, '너는 왜 매일 걱정거리만 만드니?' (Why do you only make things to worry about every day?). Here, the word is used to describe a person's behavior as a source of stress for others. In news broadcasts, reporters might discuss '국민들의 걱정거리' (the people's concerns) regarding new policies or economic shifts.

Workplace Context: In an office, a manager might ask about '업무상의 걱정거리' (work-related concerns) during a one-on-one meeting to identify bottlenecks or issues in a project.

요즘 뉴스에는 걱정거리만 가득하네요. (The news is full of nothing but worries lately.)

In literature and essays, authors use '걱정거리' to explore the human condition. It is often portrayed as an unavoidable part of life. You might read phrases like '인생은 걱정거리의 연속이다' (Life is a series of worries). In counseling or therapy settings, identifying '핵심 걱정거리' (core concerns) is a primary step in the healing process. This word bridges the gap between the mundane (what to eat for dinner) and the existential (the meaning of life).

그 문제는 이제 더 이상 저의 걱정거리가 아닙니다. (That problem is no longer a concern of mine.)

In casual text messages (Kakaotalk), friends might use it more lightly: '시험이 큰 걱정거리야 ㅠㅠ' (The exam is a big worry T_T). Even in pop songs, lyrics often touch upon the '걱정거리' of youth and love. It is a word that resonates with everyone because everyone, regardless of age or status, has something that weighs on their mind.

One of the most frequent mistakes learners make is confusing 걱정 (the emotion) with 걱정거리 (the source). You can 'feel' 걱정, but you 'have' a 걱정거리. For instance, saying '나는 걱정거리를 느껴요' (I feel a worry-source) sounds awkward. Instead, you should say '나는 걱정이 돼요' (I am worried) or '나에게는 걱정거리가 있어요' (I have a source of worry).

Mistake: Mixing Noun and Verb: Incorrect: 걱정거리하다 (to do worry-source). Correct: 걱정하다 (to worry) or 걱정거리가 있다 (to have a worry).

❌ 걱정거리를 하지 마세요. (Don't do worry-source.)
✅ 걱정하지 마세요. (Don't worry.)

Another mistake is overusing '-거리' when the simple noun suffices. While '걱정거리' is common, using it in every sentence can make your speech sound repetitive or overly formal depending on the context. Also, be careful not to confuse it with '고민거리'. '고민거리' is usually something you are actively trying to solve or decide upon, like which car to buy. '걱정거리' is more about the anxiety caused by the situation, like whether you can afford the car.

❌ 제 걱정거리는 무엇을 먹을까입니다. (My worry-source is what to eat.)
✅ 제 고민은 무엇을 먹을까입니다. (My dilemma is what to eat.)

Finally, remember that '걱정거리' is a countable concept in spirit, but grammatically treated as a mass noun or a singular unit unless specified. You don't usually say '세 개의 걱정거리' (three worry-sources) unless you are being very literal or humorous. Instead, use '여러 가지 걱정거리' (various worries) to indicate multiple sources of anxiety.

Korean has several words that overlap with 걱정거리, and choosing the right one depends on the intensity and the nature of the problem. 고민거리 is the closest synonym, but it implies a choice or a puzzle to be solved. 근심거리 is a more literary or formal version, often used in written texts or by older generations to describe deep, lingering anxieties.

Comparison: 걱정거리 vs. 고민거리: 걱정거리 focuses on the fear of negative results. 고민거리 focuses on the difficulty of making a decision.

그 일은 저에게 큰 근심거리가 되었습니다. (That matter has become a great source of anxiety for me.)

For more negative or annoying situations, you can use 골칫거리. This refers to a 'headache' or a nuisance—something that is not just worrying but actively bothersome and hard to handle. For example, a broken car that keeps needing repairs is a '골칫거리'. On the other hand, 염려 is a more formal and polite way to say worry, often used when expressing concern for someone else's well-being: '염려해 주셔서 감사합니다' (Thank you for your concern).

이 낡은 컴퓨터가 정말 골칫거리예요. (This old computer is a real headache.)

In summary, while '걱정거리' is the most versatile and common term for a source of worry, knowing these alternatives allows you to express the specific 'flavor' of your trouble. Whether it is a decision to be made (고민거리), a deep sorrow (근심거리), or an annoying nuisance (골칫거리), Korean has a specific 'material' (-거리) for every type of human struggle.

اشتباهات رایج

걱정거리하다 → 걱정하다
You cannot use '하다' directly with '걱정거리' because it is a concrete noun. Use '걱정하다' (to worry) or '걱정거리가 있다' (to have a worry).
걱정거리를 느껴요 → 걱정이 돼요 / 걱정이 느껴져요
You feel the 'feeling' (걱정), you don't feel the 'material' (걱정거리). You 'have' the material.
세 개의 걱정거리 → 여러 가지 걱정거리
While grammatically possible, Koreans rarely count worries with numbers. Using '여러 가지' (various) or '몇 가지' (a few) sounds more natural.
고민거리 for anxiety → 걱정거리
Using '고민거리' when you are actually scared or anxious about a result sounds like you are just 'thinking' about it rather than being worried.
걱정거리 as a person → 걱정거리인 사람
Saying '그는 걱정거리다' is okay, but saying '그는 나의 걱정거리다' is more natural to show the relationship.

نکات

Use it to focus

When you are overwhelmed, list your '걱정거리' one by one. Using the noun helps you see them as separate items rather than a big cloud of anxiety.

Subject vs Object

Use '걱정거리가 있다' (There is a worry) for existence and '걱정거리를 털어놓다' (To pour out a worry) for actions.

Empathy

If a Korean friend shares a '걱정거리', simply listening and saying '힘들겠네요' (It must be hard) is the best response.

Suffix Power

Learn other '-거리' words like '국거리', '반찬거리', and '웃음거리' to understand how the suffix works.
