意味
Expressing a prediction that snow is likely to occur soon.
文化的背景
The 'First Snow' ({첫눈|初雪}) is a romantic event. Many people call or text their loved ones as soon as they see the first flakes. Weather talk is a vital social lubricant. Saying '눈이 올 것 같아요' is a safe way to start a conversation with anyone. In the military, snow is often called 'beautiful trash' (예쁜 쓰레기) because soldiers have to shovel it constantly. They might say this phrase with dread. Koreans living in warmer climates (like LA or Sydney) might use this phrase with nostalgia when looking at winter photos from Korea.
The 'Vibe' Check
Use this phrase even if you don't see clouds, but just 'feel' like it's wintery enough for snow.
Don't say '할 것 같아요'
English speakers often want to say 'weather does', but Korean weather 'comes'.
