Signification
Suggesting to do something together at a future time.
Contexte culturel
The phrase is a classic example of 'Insa-chire' (polite greetings). It's more about maintaining the relationship than the actual event. Juniors often use this to show enthusiasm for a senior's suggestion without overstepping. It is one of the most common comments on Instagram/Facebook when someone posts about travel or food. It can be a 'green light' showing interest in a second date, or a 'yellow light' politely avoiding a firm commitment.
The 'Sincerity' Check
If someone adds '꼭' (definitely) or asks for your number right after saying this, they probably mean it literally!
Don't be too literal
If a Korean acquaintance says this, don't feel pressured to set a date immediately. A simple 'Yes, let's!' is the perfect response.
