意味
A polite phrase used after an initial meeting to express pleasure.
文化的背景
The 'first meeting' (첫인상) is highly valued. Using the correct parting phrase ensures that the 'face' (Chemyeon) of both parties is preserved, leaving the door open for future networking. Koreans often bow slightly while saying this phrase. The depth of the bow corresponds to the level of respect (deeper for '반가웠습니다'). On KakaoTalk, after a first conversation, it's common to send this with a 'bowing' emoji or a 'smiling' emoji to end the chat session politely. Younger Koreans might shorten it to just '반가웠어요' or even '오늘 넘 좋았어요' (It was so good today) in very casual settings, but '만나서 반가웠어요' remains the safe standard.
The 'Leaving' Rule
Always check your feet. If your feet are moving away from the person, use '반가웠어요' (past tense).
Don't over-formalize with friends
If a friend introduces you to their sibling, '반가웠어요' is perfect. '반가웠습니다' might make it feel like a business transaction.

Add '오늘' for warmth
Saying '오늘 만나서 반가웠어요' (It was nice meeting you *today*) makes the greeting feel much more sincere and less like a memorized script.
The Bow
A small nod of the head while saying this phrase goes a long way in making you sound like a native speaker.
