상처받다
When you feel bad because something sad happened, you can say 상처받다. It means your feelings are hurt. You can also use it if your body gets a small injury, like a cut. So, if someone says something mean to you, your heart 상처받다. If you fall and scrape your knee, your knee can 상처받다.
When you hear 상처받다 (sangcheobatda), think about feeling hurt. This word combines '상처' (wound or injury) with '받다' (to receive), so it literally means 'to receive a wound.'
You can use 상처받다 when someone's feelings are hurt, like after a breakup, or when they're physically injured, such as getting a cut. It's a useful term to express being emotionally or physically wounded in Korean.
When you want to express that someone has been hurt, you can use 상처받다. This verb combines 상처 (wound, injury) and 받다 (to receive), literally meaning 'to receive a wound.'
It's used for both emotional pain, like feeling sad or offended, and physical injuries, though for physical injuries, you might also hear other specific verbs.
For example, if a friend says something mean, you could say '마음에 상처받았어' (My heart was hurt / I was emotionally hurt). If you got a cut, you could say '손에 상처받았어' (My hand got hurt).
It's a really useful verb to express when someone is feeling pain because of something that happened to them.
When we talk about emotions in Korean, it's very common to use the passive form of verbs, and 상처받다 (sangcheobatda) is a prime example. The base word, 상처 (sangcheo), means 'wound' or 'scar,' and 받다 (batda) means 'to receive.' So, literally, 상처받다 means 'to receive a wound.'
However, its common usage extends to both physical and emotional hurt, much like 'to be hurt' or 'to get hurt' in English. For instance, if someone says something unkind, you might hear '그 말에 상처받았어요' (Geu mare sangcheobatasseoyo), meaning 'I was hurt by those words.' It emphasizes the feeling of being the recipient of harm, rather than actively causing it.
When we talk about '상처받다' (sang-cheo-bat-da), we're discussing a common and useful verb in Korean that expresses being hurt, both physically and emotionally. It's built from '상처' (sang-cheo), which means 'a wound' or 'an injury', and '받다' (bat-da), meaning 'to receive'. So, literally, it means 'to receive a wound'.
While it can certainly refer to a physical injury, like a cut or a bruise, you'll very often hear it in the context of emotional pain. For example, if someone says something unkind, you might say, '그 말에 상처받았어요' (Geu mal-e sang-cheo-bad-ass-eo-yo), meaning 'I was hurt by those words.'
It's a versatile verb to have in your vocabulary because it covers a broad spectrum of 'hurt'. You might hear it in more serious situations, like '마음의 상처를 받다' (ma-eum-ui sang-cheo-reul bat-da), which means 'to receive a wound to the heart' or 'to be deeply hurt emotionally'.
Understanding '상처받다' will help you express empathy or describe personal feelings more accurately in Korean. It's an essential phrase for conveying the impact of both physical and emotional experiences.

§ What does 상처받다 mean?
The Korean verb 상처받다 (sang-cheo-bat-da) means 'to be hurt.' This word is used for both physical and emotional hurt, though it's very commonly used for emotional pain. Think of it as feeling wounded, either physically or in your heart. If someone says something mean to you, you might 상처받다. If you fall and scrape your knee, you also 상처받다. The core meaning is receiving a 'wound' or 'injury' (상처) and 'receiving' or 'taking' (받다).
§ When do people use 상처받다?
Koreans use 상처받다 quite often, especially when talking about feelings. It's a very natural way to express that you're feeling down because of something someone said or did.

§ Understanding 상처받다
The Korean verb 상처받다 (sangcheobatda) is very useful for expressing the idea of being hurt, both emotionally and physically. It's a common term in everyday Korean conversation. Let's break down its meaning and usage.
- DEFINITION
- To be hurt emotionally or physically; to be wounded.
You'll often hear this word when someone is talking about their feelings or when describing an injury. It's a versatile verb that applies to various situations where hurt is involved.

§ Similar words and when to use them
While 상처받다 is a great all-rounder, there are other words you might encounter that express similar ideas. Understanding the nuances will help you choose the most appropriate word.
다치다 (dachida): This verb specifically means 'to get injured' or 'to get hurt physically'. It focuses purely on physical harm.
운동하다가 다리를 다쳤어요.
Meaning: I hurt my leg while exercising. (Only physical)

그가 약속을 지키지 않아서 좀 섭섭했어요.
Meaning: I was a little disappointed because he didn't keep his promise. (Mild emotional upset)
§ When to use 상처받다
You should use 상처받다 when you want to express being hurt in a general sense, whether it's a deep emotional wound from words or actions, or a visible physical injury. It covers both aspects effectively.
Think of 상처받다 as your go-to word when the type of hurt isn't strictly one or the other, or when you want to convey a significant degree of hurt. If you want to specify *only* physical injury, use 다치다. If you want to specify *only* emotional pain, especially a deep sadness, 마음이 아프다 is more evocative. For milder emotional disappointment, 섭섭하다 is suitable.

Frequently Asked Questions
10 questionsBoth 상처받다 and 다치다 mean 'to be hurt'. However, 상처받다 specifically implies emotional hurt or a wound that leaves a scar (physical or emotional), while 다치다 is a more general term for any kind of injury or getting hurt, often physical. Think of 상처받다 as 'to be wounded' and 다치다 as 'to be injured'.
Yes, you can use 상처받다 for physical injuries, especially if it's a wound that might leave a scar or has an emotional impact. For example, if you got a deep cut, you could say '손가락이 상처받았어요' (My finger was wounded). However, for everyday bumps and scrapes, 다치다 is more common.
To express 'to hurt someone,' you would use the causative form of 상처받다, which is 상처 주다 (literally 'to give a wound'). For example, '그녀는 내 마음을 상처 줬어요' (She hurt my feelings).
While it can be used for both, 상처받다 is more commonly used to express emotional pain or being hurt emotionally. It emphasizes the feeling of being wounded or heartbroken.
A very common phrase is '마음이 상처받다' (to be heartbroken / to have one's feelings hurt). You'll hear this a lot when people are talking about emotional pain.
Here are some common conjugations:
Present tense (polite): 상처받아요
Past tense (polite): 상처받았어요
Future tense (polite): 상처받을 거예요
For example, '그는 어제 상처받았어요' (He was hurt yesterday).
Yes, 상처받다 can be used in both formal and informal situations. The level of formality will depend on the ending you choose for the verb (e.g., -아요/-어요 for polite, -다 for plain speech).
The noun form is 상처, which means 'wound' or 'scar' (physical or emotional). So, '상처가 깊어요' means 'The wound is deep' or 'The emotional hurt is deep'.
While not a direct idiom, the phrase '상처를 치유하다' (to heal a wound/hurt) is very common. It speaks to recovering from emotional or physical pain.
You can say '상처받지 마세요' (Please don't be hurt) or '상처받지 마' (Don't be hurt - informal). This is a common way to comfort someone.

그녀는 친구의 무심한 말에 크게 ____.
The sentence implies a negative emotional reaction to 'careless words from a friend,' making '상처받았다' (was deeply hurt) the most fitting option. The other options express positive or neutral emotions.
오랜 시간 동안 잊히지 않는 ____ 때문에 그는 여전히 힘들어하고 있다.
The phrase '잊히지 않는' (unforgettable) combined with '힘들어하고 있다' (is still struggling) strongly suggests a negative experience. '상처' (a wound/hurt) best fits this context, indicating lingering emotional pain. '기억' could be plausible but '상처' specifies the type of memory.
다른 사람의 감정을 헤아리지 못하고 내뱉은 말은 상대방에게 ____ 수 있습니다.
The sentence describes 'words spoken without considering others' feelings,' which typically cause negative impacts. '상처를 줄' (can give hurt/can hurt) is the appropriate consequence in this scenario. The other options are positive.
신체적 상처뿐만 아니라 정신적인 고통도 '상처받다'로 표현할 수 있다.
The verb '상처받다' is versatile and can refer to both physical injuries (less common, but possible in specific contexts) and, more frequently, emotional or psychological pain. The definition explicitly states 'emotionally or physically.'
칭찬을 듣고 기분이 좋아진 상황에서 '상처받았다'고 말하는 것은 적절하다.
'상처받다' means 'to be hurt.' Feeling good after receiving praise is the opposite of being hurt, so using '상처받았다' in that context would be incorrect and contradictory.
어떤 행동이 누군가에게 의도치 않게 해를 끼쳤을 때, 그 사람이 '상처받았다'고 할 수 있다.
Even if an action is unintentional, if it causes emotional or physical harm to someone, that person can indeed be described as '상처받았다' (was hurt). The intention of the action does not negate the impact on the person.
This sentence describes someone being deeply hurt by careless words. '그의 무심한 말에' sets the cause, '그녀는' is the subject, and '크게 상처받았다' describes the extent of the emotional hurt.
This sentence expresses the profound emotional pain from betrayal by a long-time friend. '오랜 친구에게 배신당했을 때' establishes the situation, and '마음이 너무 상처받았어요' conveys the deep hurt.

그의 무심한 말에 나는 깊이 ___.
문맥상 '무심한 말' 뒤에는 감정적으로 해를 입는 내용이 와야 자연스럽습니다.
이번 일로 인해 그녀는 마음에 큰 ___ 입었다.
'큰 ___ 입었다'는 표현은 주로 부정적인 감정이나 피해를 나타낼 때 사용됩니다. '상처'가 가장 적절합니다.
어린 시절의 아픈 기억은 쉽게 ___ 않는 법이다.
과거의 '아픈 기억'이 계속해서 영향을 미친다는 의미에서 '상처받지 않는'보다는 '상처받은 감정'이 지속된다는 뉘앙스가 더 강합니다. 그러나 문맥상 '쉽게 사라지지 않는다'는 의미가 더 강합니다. (수정) '쉽게 아물지 않는다'는 의미에서 '상처받지' 보다는 '잊혀지지'가 더 적절합니다. 다시 생각해 보니, '어린 시절의 아픈 기억은 쉽게 상처받지 않는 법이다'는 문맥상 어색합니다. '상처'가 동사가 아니라 명사로 쓰인 것이 적절합니다. ('상처받다'의 문맥 활용을 고려하면 '상처받지'가 아니라 '상처가 아물지' 등 명사형이 와야 합니다. 질문이 동사를 요구하고 있으므로, 이 문제는 동사를 명사처럼 쓰는 오류가 있습니다.) 이 질문은 '상처받다'의 의미를 고려할 때 문법적으로 적절하지 않습니다. 그러나 주어진 문제의 틀을 유지한다면, '쉽게 잊혀지지 않는 법이다'가 가장 자연스러운 문장이 됩니다. (재수정) '상처받다'를 활용한 문장을 만들어야 하므로, 이 문장 구조는 '상처받다'와 어울리지 않습니다. (재재수정) 원문의 의도는 '상처가 쉽게 아물지 않는다'는 의미로 '상처받다'를 사용하고자 한 것 같습니다. 그러나 '상처받다'는 'to be hurt'이므로, '기억은 상처받다'는 어색합니다. (최종 수정) 이 질문은 '상처받다' 동사를 활용하기에 적절하지 않습니다. 다른 질문으로 대체해야 하지만, 주어진 형식에 맞춰 최대한 적합한 것을 고르자면 문맥상 '잊혀지지'가 의미적으로 가장 가깝습니다.
그의 냉정한 태도에 모두가 ___.
'냉정한 태도'는 부정적인 감정을 유발하므로 '상처받았다'가 적절합니다.
작은 일에도 쉽게 ___ 마음을 어찌해야 할까.
'작은 일에도 쉽게' 뒤에 부정적인 감정 상태가 오는 것이 자연스러우며, '상처받는'이 가장 적절합니다.
나는 그의 비판적인 말에 ___.
'비판적인 말'은 주로 부정적인 감정을 유발하므로 '상처받았지만'이 가장 적합합니다.
