意思
A common response when asked how one is doing.
文化背景
The 'Have you eaten?' (밥 먹었어요?) greeting is often used interchangeably with '잘 지내요?'. In Korean culture, food is the ultimate sign of welfare. In offices, '잘 지내요' is often a polite lie. Even if stressed, employees say they are doing well to maintain 'Gibun' (harmony) in the team. On Instagram, Koreans use the hashtag #잘지내요 to show off a peaceful lifestyle, often featuring cafes or nature. Historically, '지내다' was used for performing ancestral rites ({祭祀|제사}를 지내다). This shows the verb's deep connection to significant life events and time.
Add '덕분에'
Adding '덕분에' (Thanks to you) before '잘 지내요' makes you sound much more polite and native-like.
Don't use for objects
Never say your phone or your car is '잘 지내요'. Use '좋아요' or '상태가 좋아요' instead.
