When you want to say "to massage" in Korean, you use the verb 마사지하다 (ma-sa-ji-ha-da). This word is made up of "마사지" (ma-sa-ji), which means "massage," and "하다" (ha-da), which is a common verb meaning "to do."
So, literally, 마사지하다 means "to do a massage." You can use this verb when you want to talk about giving someone a massage or when someone is massaging you.
For example, you might say "제가 엄마를 마사지해요" (Je-ga eom-ma-reul ma-sa-ji-hae-yo) to mean "I massage my mom." Or, if you're getting a massage, you could say "친구가 저를 마사지해줬어요" (Chin-gu-ga jeo-reul ma-sa-ji-hae-jwo-sseo-yo), meaning "My friend massaged me."
It's a straightforward verb that's easy to remember once you know "massage" and "to do" in Korean!

The basic Korean sentence structure is Subject-Object-Verb (SOV). '나는' (I) is the subject, '친구를' (friend, object) is the object, and '마사지했다' (massaged) is the verb.
The sentence follows the SOV structure. '엄마는' (Mom) is the subject, '아빠를' (Dad, object) is the object, '자주' (often) is an adverb, and '마사지해요' (massages) is the verb.
This sentence means 'When you are tired, it is good to get a massage.' '피곤할 때' (when tired) sets the condition, and '마사지하는 것이 좋아요' (getting a massage is good) is the main clause.
친구가 어깨를 ___ 주었어요.
The phrase '마사지해 주었어요' means 'gave a massage'. The structure is verb stem + -아/어 주다.
저는 피곤할 때 집에서 ___ 것을 좋아해요.
To express 'liking to do something', you use the verb stem + -는 것 + 을/를 좋아하다. So, '마사지하는 것' is correct.
스트레스가 많을 때, ___ 좋다고 생각해요.
The ending -으면/면 is used to express a condition, meaning 'if' or 'when'. So, '마사지하면' means 'if you get a massage'.
