접종하다 30秒で
- 접종하다 means 'to vaccinate' formally.
- It is used by medical providers or in official health contexts.
- It specifically refers to shots that build immunity, not just any medicine.
- Commonly paired with '백신' (vaccine) or '예방 주사' (preventive shot).
The Korean verb 접종하다 (jeopjonghada) is a technical and formal term that translates specifically to 'to vaccinate' or 'to inoculate.' While the general word for getting a shot is 주사를 맞다, 접종하다 is used specifically in medical, public health, and official contexts to describe the act of administering a vaccine to build immunity. It is derived from the Hanja characters 接 (접 - contact/receive) and 種 (종 - seed/species), which historically referred to 'planting the seed' of a disease (the vaccine) into the body to grow resistance. In modern Korea, you will encounter this word constantly during flu seasons, travel preparation, or public health crises.
- Medical Context
- Used by doctors and nurses when explaining the procedure of administering a vaccine to a patient. It implies a preventive measure rather than a treatment for an existing illness.
보건소에 가서 독감 백신을 접종하다.
Understanding the nuance between 주사하다 (to inject) and 접종하다 is vital for intermediate learners. While any liquid can be 주사 (injected), only vaccines are 접종 (vaccinated). If you are talking to a friend, you might say "주사 맞았어" (I got a shot), but if you are filling out a school form or reading a news report, you will see "접종 완료" (vaccination complete). This word represents the proactive side of healthcare in Korean society, where preventive medicine is highly prioritized and systematically organized through national health insurance.
- Public Health Context
- Used in government announcements regarding vaccination rates, schedules for children, or mandatory requirements for international travelers entering the country.
정부는 전 국민에게 백신을 접종하기 시작했습니다.
The word is also frequently combined with '예방' (prevention) to form 예방 접종하다, which is the most common full phrase for 'to vaccinate for prevention.' This redundancy emphasizes the goal of the medical act. In a globalized world, knowing this word helps you navigate clinical visits in Korea, understand vaccine passports (접종 증명서), and discuss global health issues with native speakers. It is a word that bridges the gap between basic survival Korean and academic/professional proficiency.
Using 접종하다 correctly requires attention to the subject-object relationship. Because it is an active verb, the subject is typically the person or entity providing the vaccine (like a nurse or the government), or the general act of 'performing' the vaccination. However, in casual usage, learners often confuse it with the receiver's perspective. Let's look at the grammatical structures.
- Structure: [Subject]이/가 [Object]을/를 접종하다
- The doctor vaccinates the patient. (의사가 환자에게 백신을 접종하다). Note that the person receiving the vaccine often takes the particle ~에게 (to).
간호사가 아이에게 예방 주사를 접종했습니다.
When you want to say 'I got vaccinated,' you have two primary choices. You can use the passive verb 접종받다 (to receive vaccination) or the noun-based phrase 접종을 받다. Alternatively, the common expression 백신을 맞다 is much more frequent in spoken Korean. Using 접종하다 to mean 'I got a shot' is a common learner error; it sounds like you are the one holding the needle.
해외 여행 전에 황열병 백신을 접종해야 합니다.
In formal writing, such as news reports or medical journals, 접종하다 is often used in the past tense to report statistics. For example, '60% of the population has been vaccinated' would be '인구의 60%가 접종을 완료했습니다.' Here, the noun form '접종' is used with '완료하다' (to complete). This shows how the word functions as a building block for more complex medical terminology.
You will hear 접종하다 in several specific environments in South Korea. The most prominent is the 보건소 (Bogeonso), which is the local public health center found in every district. These centers handle the majority of national vaccination programs. When you walk in, the signage will often read '예방접종실' (Vaccination Room), and the staff will ask if you have come to '접종하러' (to get vaccinated).
- News and Media
- During the winter months, news anchors will frequently use this word when discussing '독감 예방접종' (flu vaccination) schedules. They might say, "오늘부터 어르신들을 대상으로 독감 백신을 접종합니다." (Starting today, we are vaccinating seniors for the flu.)
뉴스: "정부는 추가 접종 계획을 발표했습니다."
Another common place is in schools or workplaces. Parents of young children in Korea are very familiar with this word because of the '아기 예방접종 수첩' (Baby Vaccination Handbook). Teachers might send home notices saying, "학생들은 필수 예방접종을 모두 접종해야 합니다." (Students must complete all mandatory vaccinations.)
병원 안내문: "이곳에서 독감 백신을 접종하실 수 있습니다."
Finally, when traveling abroad, the immigration office or your airline might ask for a '접종 증명서' (vaccination certificate). In this context, the word is indispensable for proving your health status. Even if you don't say the word yourself, being able to recognize it on signs and forms is a critical skill for living in or visiting Korea.
The most frequent mistake learners make with 접종하다 is a confusion of agency—who is doing the action versus who is receiving it. Because English uses 'to vaccinate' both actively ('I vaccinated the dog') and passively ('I was vaccinated'), learners often assume 접종하다 works the same way. However, in Korean, 접종하다 is strictly the act of administering the vaccine.
- Mistake #1: Using '접종하다' for yourself
- Incorrect: "저는 어제 백신을 접종했어요." (This sounds like you gave yourself the shot).
Correct: "저는 어제 백신을 접종받았어요" or "백신을 맞았어요."
❌ 저는 독감을 접종했어요.
✅ 저는 독감 예방 주사를 맞았어요.
Another common error is confusing 접종 (vaccination) with 주사 (injection). While all vaccinations involve an injection (주사), not all injections are vaccinations. If you are getting vitamins or antibiotics via a needle, you should never use the word 접종. Using it in that context would confuse a medical professional.
- Mistake #2: Particle Errors
- Learners often forget that the disease name needs a modifier like '백신' or '예방 주사'. You don't 'vaccinate a flu'; you 'vaccinate a flu vaccine'.
Incorrect: 독감을 접종하다.
Correct: 독감 백신을 접종하다.
Lastly, watch out for the formality level. 접종하다 is quite formal. If you are talking to a small child, you wouldn't say "접종하자." Instead, you would say "주사 맞으러 가자" (Let's go get a shot) or use the cute term "불주사" (literally 'fire shot', referring to certain vaccines) to make it more relatable, though '접종' is still used by the parents and doctors.
Korean has several ways to describe medical injections and preventive measures. Choosing the right one depends on the setting and what exactly is being injected. Here is a comparison of 접종하다 with its closest relatives.
- 주사하다 (Jusahada) vs. 접종하다
- 주사하다 is the general verb for 'to inject.' It is used for any substance—insulin, saline, medicine, or vaccines. 접종하다 is a subset of injection specifically for vaccines to create immunity.
- 맞다 (Matda) vs. 접종하다
- 맞다 is the passive 'to receive/get hit by.' In the context of needles, 주사를 맞다 (to get a shot) is the most common way for a patient to describe their experience. 접종하다 is the technical action performed by the provider.
비교:
1. 백신을 접종하다 (Formal/Technical)
2. 백신을 맞다 (Common/Spoken)
Other related terms include 면역 (Myeon-yeok) which means 'immunity.' You might hear 면역을 형성하다 (to form immunity) as the goal of 접종. There is also 투여하다 (Tuyuhada), which means 'to administer' (usually medication or drugs), often used in clinical trials or hospital settings for non-injection medicines as well.
- Passive Alternative: 접종받다
- If you are the patient and want to use a formal word, 접종받다 is the perfect choice. It maintains the technical nuance of 'vaccination' while correctly identifying you as the recipient.
In summary, use 접종하다 when discussing public health policy, medical procedures, or formal requirements. Use 맞다 when talking to friends about your sore arm after a shot. Understanding these registers will make your Korean sound much more natural and precise.
How Formal Is It?
豆知識
The '종' (seed) in '접종' is the same character used for 'seeds' in farming. Historically, early vaccination involved scratching the skin and 'planting' the vaccine, much like a farmer plants seeds in the earth.
発音ガイド
- Pronouncing '접' as 'jeob' with a voiced 'b' (it should be an unvoiced stop).
- Making the 'j' in 'jong' too soft (it often tenses to 'jj' after the 'p' in 'jeop').
- Confusing the 'eo' sound in 'jeop' with an 'o' sound.
- Omitting the 'h' sound in 'hada' completely.
- Pronouncing 'jong' like the English word 'young'.
難易度
Easy to recognize in context, but looks like other '하다' verbs.
Requires correct Hanja-based spelling and object usage.
The 'p' stop and tense 'j' can be tricky for beginners.

ヒント
Subject-Object Agreement
Remember that if YOU are the one getting the shot, you should use '접종받다' (passive) or '맞다'. Use '접종하다' when you are the doctor or talking about the system.
Hanja Roots
Knowing that '종' (Jong) means 'seed' helps you remember that this word is about 'planting' immunity.
The Health Center
In Korea, go to a '보건소' (Bogeonso) for cheaper '접종'. They are the experts in this word!
The 'P' Stop
Make sure you don't release the breath on the 'p' in 'Jeop'. It's a 'closed' sound.
Formal Reports
Use '접종률' (vaccination rate) when writing about social issues or health trends.
Not for Vitamins
Never use '접종' for a vitamin drip or saline. That is always '주사' or '수액'.
News Keywords
If you hear '독감' (flu) and '보건소', the next word is almost certainly '접종'.
The Seed Doctor
Imagine a doctor named Dr. Jeop planting seeds of health. Jeop-Jong!
Noun + 하다
This is a typical Hanja noun + 하다 verb. You can use '접종을 하다' as well.
Professionalism
Using '접종' instead of '주사' at a clinic will make the staff realize you have a high level of Korean.
暗記しよう
記憶術
Think of 'J-O-P' (Jeop) as 'Job' and 'Jong' as 'Joining'. Your 'Job' is to 'Join' the vaccine with your body.
視覚的連想
Imagine a farmer planting a seed (종) into a small hole in the ground, but the ground is your arm and the seed is a tiny drop of medicine.
Word Web
チャレンジ
Try to use '접종하다' in a sentence about your pet or a recent flu shot you saw on the news.
語源
From Hanja (Sino-Korean characters).
元の意味： 接 (접 - contact/receive) + 種 (종 - seed/species).
Sino-Korean文化的な背景
Vaccination can be a sensitive topic for some. When using this word, stick to medical or factual contexts to remain neutral.
In English, we use 'get a shot' for almost everything. In Korean, using '접종' makes you sound much more educated and specific about health.

よくある質問
10 問No, it is also used for animals. You can say '강아지에게 광견병 백신을 접종하다' (to vaccinate a dog for rabies).
Yes, it was the primary word used in official communications during the pandemic. '코로나 백신을 접종하다' is perfectly correct.
They are largely interchangeable. '예방' (prevention) just makes it more explicit that the goal is to prevent a disease. In most contexts, '접종' implies '예방접종'.
In daily speech, people prefer '주사 맞다' or '백신 맞다'. However, you will hear '접종' on the news every single day.
Usually, yes. However, even for oral vaccines (like some polio vaccines), the term '접종' is still used in a technical sense to mean 'immunization'.
You can say '접종을 완료했습니다' (I have completed the vaccination).
It is called '추가 접종' (additional vaccination) or often '부스터 샷' (transliteration).
It is a formal/neutral word. It is not 'impolite', but using it with friends might sound a bit like you're reading a textbook.
No. Tattoos use '문신을 새기다'. '접종' is strictly medical for vaccines.
Usually '을/를' if paired with '백신' or '주사'. For example: '독감 백신을 접종하다'.

접종하다 is the formal, technical term for 'to vaccinate.' While patients usually say '백신을 맞다' (to get a vaccine), you will see '접종하다' on all official medical documents and news reports in Korea. Example: '독감 백신을 접종했습니다' (I administered/got the flu vaccine).
- 접종하다 means 'to vaccinate' formally.
- It is used by medical providers or in official health contexts.
- It specifically refers to shots that build immunity, not just any medicine.
- Commonly paired with '백신' (vaccine) or '예방 주사' (preventive shot).
Subject-Object Agreement
Remember that if YOU are the one getting the shot, you should use '접종받다' (passive) or '맞다'. Use '접종하다' when you are the doctor or talking about the system.
Hanja Roots
Knowing that '종' (Jong) means 'seed' helps you remember that this word is about 'planting' immunity.
The Health Center
In Korea, go to a '보건소' (Bogeonso) for cheaper '접종'. They are the experts in this word!
The 'P' Stop
Make sure you don't release the breath on the 'p' in 'Jeop'. It's a 'closed' sound.
