Significado
A basic question to ask about someone's origin or hometown.
Contexto cultural
Asking about hometown is a way to find common ground. It is very common in first meetings. Similar to Korea, asking about origin is polite and shows interest in the person's background. Asking 'Where are you from?' can be sensitive depending on context, as it might imply someone doesn't belong. Direct questions about origin are fine, but usually follow a greeting.
Smile!
Always smile when asking this. It makes the question feel friendly rather than like an interrogation.
Context matters
If you are in a very formal business meeting, use '출신지가 어디입니까?' instead.
