예매하다 em 30 segundos
- Book or reserve tickets/seats in advance.
- Used for movies, concerts, trains, etc.
- Action taken before an event sells out.
- Essential for planning and securing access.
The Korean verb '예매하다' (yemaehada) is a fundamental word for anyone who needs to secure tickets or seats for an event, transportation, or entertainment before it happens. It translates directly to 'to reserve' or 'to book in advance.' Think of it as the action you take when you want to make sure you have a spot for something popular, like a concert, a movie, a train ride, or even a popular restaurant table.
This verb is incredibly common in everyday Korean life. Whenever you're planning to attend something that has limited capacity or is likely to sell out, '예매하다' becomes your go-to verb. It implies a proactive step to ensure availability. You don't just show up and hope for the best; you actively 'book' your place.
For example, if there's a concert by your favorite K-pop group, you'll need to '예매하다' the tickets. If you're planning a trip to Busan by KTX train, you'll '예매하다' your train tickets. Even for popular museum exhibits or theater performances, '예매하다' is the standard way to secure your entry.
The act of '예매하다' often involves using online platforms, mobile apps, or sometimes calling a reservation center. It's a crucial part of planning and experiencing many activities in Korea, ensuring a smooth and enjoyable experience without the disappointment of finding out something is already full.
Let's break down the components of the word. '예' (ye) comes from '미리' (miri), meaning 'in advance' or 'beforehand,' and '매' (mae) comes from '사다' (sada), meaning 'to buy.' So, literally, it means 'to buy in advance.' This etymology clearly illustrates the core meaning of securing something ahead of time.
Understanding '예매하다' is key to navigating various booking systems and participating in popular Korean cultural events and travel. It’s a practical verb that you'll encounter frequently when planning your adventures.

'예매하다' is a verb, so it conjugates like other Korean verbs. The most common forms you'll encounter are the present, past, and future tenses, often in polite speech endings like '-아요/어요' (-ayo/eoyo) or '-ㅂ니다/습니다' (-mnida/seumnida).
Present Tense: Used to talk about booking in general or a future booking that is being planned.
저는 연극 티켓을 예매하려고 해요.
Past Tense: Used to talk about booking that has already been completed.
주말 기차표를 미리 예매했습니다.
Future Tense/Intention: Used to express the intention to book or a future booking.
다음 달 콘서트 티켓을 예매할 거예요.
Imperative/Request: Used to ask someone to book something.
이 공연 티켓을 예매해 주세요.
Connecting to Objects: '예매하다' typically takes a direct object, which is what is being booked. This object is usually marked with the particle '을/를' (eul/reul).
- Common Object
- 표 (pyo - ticket), 좌석 (jwaseok - seat), 자리 (jari - seat/spot), 티켓 (tiket - ticket).
항공권을 예매하는 데 시간이 좀 걸렸어요.
좋은 좌석을 예매하고 싶어요.
You'll hear '예매하다' constantly in situations involving planning and purchasing access to events and services in Korea. The most common scenarios include:
1. Ticketing for Entertainment:
When talking about movies, concerts, musicals, plays, or sporting events, '예매하다' is the standard term. You might hear friends discussing booking tickets for a popular movie release or a highly anticipated concert.
친구: 이번 주말에 새로 개봉하는 영화 예매할까?
나: 응, 나도 보고 싶었어! 얼른 예매하자.
2. Transportation Bookings:
For travel, especially long-distance, '예매하다' is used for booking train tickets (KTX, SRT), bus tickets, and sometimes even domestic flights. People often emphasize booking early to get good prices or ensure availability.
휴가 때 부산 가는 KTX 표를 미리 예매해야 해요.
3. Accommodation and Experiences:
While '숙박하다' (sukbakada - to stay/lodge) is used for staying at hotels, '예약하다' (yeyakhada - to reserve) is more common for rooms. However, for specific tours, popular activities, or even highly sought-after restaurant tables, '예매하다' can sometimes be used, though '예약하다' is more general for reservations.
4. Online Booking Platforms and Apps:
When you visit websites or use apps for booking tickets (like Interpark, Yes24 for concerts/musicals, CGV, Lotte Cinema for movies, or Korail for trains), the buttons and instructions will frequently use '예매하기' (yemeahagi - to book) or related forms. Customer service interactions will also use this term.
이 웹사이트에서 좌석을 예매할 수 있습니다.
5. Announcements and Information:
Public announcements, advertisements, and informational messages about events will often use '예매하다' to inform people about how and when to book tickets.
- Common Scenarios
- Movie theaters, concert halls, train stations, bus terminals, event websites.
While '예매하다' is straightforward, learners might occasionally confuse it with similar-sounding or related words, or misuse its grammatical particles. Here are some common pitfalls:
1. Confusing '예매하다' with '예약하다':
This is perhaps the most frequent point of confusion. Both verbs mean 'to reserve' or 'to book.' However, '예매하다' is almost exclusively used for tickets (for events, transportation) and sometimes seats. '예약하다' is a more general term for making any kind of reservation, such as booking a hotel room, a restaurant table, or an appointment.
Incorrect: 호텔을 예매했어요.
Correct: 호텔을 예약했어요.
Correct: 콘서트 표를 예매했어요.
Also Correct: 콘서트 표를 예약했어요.
2. Incorrect Particle Usage:
As a transitive verb, '예매하다' takes a direct object. Ensure you use the correct object marking particle, '을/를' (eul/reul), after the noun that is being booked.
Incorrect: 영화 표는 예매했어요.
Correct: 영화 표를 예매했어요.
While '는' (neun) can be used for topic marking, for the direct object of '예매하다', '를' (reul) is the standard and preferred particle.
3. Overusing '예매하다' for appointments:
As mentioned, '예매하다' is specific to tickets and seats. Using it for appointments with doctors, dentists, or for services like haircuts is incorrect. For those, '예약하다' is the appropriate verb.
Incorrect: 의사 선생님과 예매했어요.
Correct: 의사 선생님과 예약했어요.
4. Forgetting the 'in advance' aspect:
While not strictly an error in grammar, remember that '예매하다' inherently means booking *in advance*. If you are buying a ticket right at the counter, you might say '표를 샀어요' (pyoreul sasseoyo - I bought a ticket) rather than '표를 예매했어요'. However, in practice, people might still use '예매하다' even for same-day bookings if they secured it online beforehand.
'예매하다' is quite specific, but there are other Korean verbs that share similar meanings or are used in related contexts. Understanding these distinctions will help you use the right word for the right situation.
- 1. 예약하다 (yeyakhada)
- Meaning: To reserve, to book (general).
- Usage: This is a broader term. It's used for booking hotel rooms, restaurant tables, appointments (doctor, salon), and services. While it *can* sometimes be used for tickets, '예매하다' is more precise for that context.
- Example:
- 레스토랑 자리를 예약했어요. (I reserved a table at the restaurant.)
- Comparison: Use '예매하다' for tickets (movie, concert, train) and '예약하다' for most other reservations like hotels or appointments. Sometimes '예약하다' can overlap with '예매하다' when booking tickets, but '예매하다' is more specific.
- 2. 사다 (sada)
- Meaning: To buy.
- Usage: This is the most basic verb for purchasing. While booking tickets implies buying them, '사다' doesn't inherently carry the 'in advance' or 'reserve' nuance.
- Example:
- 영화표를 샀어요. (I bought movie tickets.)
- Comparison: '예매하다' is about securing something before it's gone (often implies buying), while '사다' is simply the act of purchasing. You '예매하다' tickets, and the result of that '예매' is that you '사다' them.
- 3. 구하다 (guhada)
- Meaning: To get, to obtain, to find.
- Usage: This verb is used when you are trying to acquire something that might be difficult to get, often implying effort.
- Example:
- 인기 있는 콘서트 티켓을 구했어요. (I managed to get popular concert tickets.)
- Comparison: '구하다' focuses on the successful acquisition of something scarce. '예매하다' is the *method* by which you often '구하다' tickets. You '예매하다' to '구하다' the tickets.
- 4. 득템하다 (deuttemhada)
- Meaning: To get a great deal or a rare item (slang).
- Usage: This is informal slang, often used when someone successfully obtains something desirable, especially at a good price or through effort.
- Example:
- 드디어 그 한정판 운동화를 득템했어!
I finally got my hands on those limited edition sneakers! - Comparison: This is highly informal and focuses on the excitement of acquiring something. '예매하다' is a formal, standard verb for the act of booking.
How Formal Is It?
Curiosidade
The character '豫' (ye) originally depicted an elephant, symbolizing something large and important that required careful planning. Over time, its meaning evolved to include 'foresee' or 'plan ahead', which is how it came to signify 'in advance'. The character '買' (mae) clearly means 'to buy'.
Guia de pronúncia
- Mispronouncing '예' as '애' (ae) or '에' (e).
- Not clearly distinguishing '매' (mae) from other similar vowel sounds.
- Incorrectly stressing a particular syllable, making it sound unnatural.

Both involve reserving something.
'예매하다' is specifically for tickets and seats for events or transportation. '예약하다' is a general term for reservations, including hotels, restaurants, and appointments. While you can technically '예약하다' a ticket, '예매하다' is the more precise and commonly used verb for this context.

Booking tickets ultimately involves buying them.
'예매하다' emphasizes the act of booking or reserving in advance, often implying a competitive or limited availability situation. '사다' simply means 'to buy' and can be for immediate purchase. You '예매하다' to get tickets, and the result is you '사다' them.

Origem da palavra
The word '예매하다' is a Sino-Korean word, derived from Chinese characters. It combines '예' (豫) from '미리' (miri - in advance, beforehand) and '매' (買) from '사다' (sada - to buy). Thus, its literal meaning is 'to buy in advance'.
Significado original: To buy in advance.
Sino-Korean (derived from Chinese characters)Contexto cultural
There are no particular sensitivities associated with the word '예매하다' itself. However, discussions around ticket scalping ('암표') and the fairness of booking systems can be sensitive topics.
In English-speaking countries, we use 'book', 'reserve', or 'purchase tickets in advance'. While the concept is the same, the intensity and cultural significance of '예매하다' in Korea, especially for K-pop concerts or holiday travel, can be much higher due to the rapid sell-out times and competitive nature.

Perguntas frequentes
10 perguntasThe main difference lies in specificity. '예매하다' is primarily used for booking tickets for events (movies, concerts, sports) or transportation (trains, planes, buses). '예약하다' is a more general term used for any type of reservation, such as booking a hotel room, a restaurant table, or an appointment with a doctor. While '예약하다' can sometimes be understood for tickets, '예매하다' is the more precise and common choice in that context.
'사다' simply means 'to buy'. '예매하다' implies buying something *in advance*, often for events or transportation where availability is limited or demand is high. For example, you '예매하다' concert tickets to secure them before they sell out, whereas you might just '사다' a snack at a convenience store without any prior booking.
Generally, no. For restaurant tables, the more appropriate verb is '예약하다'. '예매하다' is specifically for tickets and seats related to events or travel. Using '예매하다' for a restaurant table would sound unnatural.
The most common way to say 'I booked tickets' is '표를 예매했어요' (pyoreul yemaehaesseoyo) or '티켓을 예매했어요' (tiket-eul yemaehaesseoyo). If you want to specify what kind of tickets, you can say '영화표를 예매했어요' (I booked movie tickets) or '기차표를 예매했어요' (I booked train tickets).
'사전 예매' (sajeon yemae) means 'advance booking' or 'pre-booking'. '사전' (sajeon) means 'in advance' or 'prior'. So, it specifically refers to the act of booking something before it becomes generally available or before the last minute, often to get benefits like discounts or better seats.
While '예매하다' inherently means booking in advance, it is often used even for same-day bookings if the tickets were secured online beforehand. For example, you might '예매하다' movie tickets online for a showing later that same day. If you are buying a ticket directly at the counter right before the event starts, you might simply say '표를 샀어요' (I bought a ticket), but using '예매했어요' is also common if the booking process was done digitally.
'예매하다' is the action the customer takes to book or reserve tickets in advance. '발권하다' means 'to issue tickets', which is typically done by the ticket provider (e.g., the cinema, train station staff) after the booking is confirmed or at the point of sale. You '예매하다' to get a ticket, and then you might '발권받다' (receive issued tickets).
To cancel a booking, you generally use the verb '취소하다' (chwisohada). So, if you booked tickets, you would say '표를 취소했어요' (I cancelled the tickets). Depending on the policy, you might then be eligible for a refund, which is '환불하다' (hwanbulhada).
Yes, there are many! For movies, popular platforms include CGV, Lotte Cinema, and Megabox. For concerts and musicals, Interpark and Yes24 are major players. For trains, Korail is the primary booking service. Many of these platforms use the term '예매하기' (to book) on their buttons and interfaces.
If you don't book in advance ('예매하다') for popular events or transportation, especially during peak times or for highly anticipated performances, you risk them selling out. This can lead to disappointment, or you might have to resort to unofficial channels where tickets are much more expensive (scalping).
