意思
Used to say goodbye with the expectation of seeing the person soon.
文化背景
The 'Pali-pali' culture means that '잠시 후에' often literally means 'very soon'. If you are late after saying this, it can be seen as disrespectful of the other person's time. In Korean offices, using the formal '잠시 후에 뵙겠습니다' when stepping out for a smoke or coffee break shows that you are still 'on the clock' mentally and respect the hierarchy. On KakaoTalk, Koreans often use the 'running' emoji (🏃♂️) alongside this phrase to show they are in a hurry to get back to the conversation. Saying 'See you soon' is a way to avoid 'abruptness'. Korean social interaction prefers smooth transitions over sharp endings.
The 'Yo' Rule
Always keep the '요' unless you are 100% sure the person is younger than you or a very close friend.
Don't use for tomorrow!
If you say this on Friday and won't see them until Monday, they will think you are coming back to the office tonight.

Pair with a reason
Adding a reason like '커피 사올게요' (I'll get coffee) before the phrase makes you sound much more like a native speaker.
The Smile Factor
In Korea, this phrase is almost always accompanied by a small wave or a nod.

In spoken Korean, '에' is sometimes dropped ('잠시 후 봐요'), but for learners, keeping it is better.
