意思
To be unwell or not feeling healthy.
文化背景
In Korean workplaces, saying '몸이 안 좋다' is often a prerequisite for leaving early. It is considered more polite than saying 'I am tired.' The phrase relates to the concept of 'Gi' (energy). When your body is 'not good,' it means your energy flow is blocked or weak. Koreans rarely ask for specific details when someone says '몸이 안 좋다.' It is a signal to give that person space and rest. On KakaoTalk, this phrase is often accompanied by a 'sick' emoji (🤒) to soften the impact of canceling plans.
Add '좀' for Naturalness
Always add '좀' (jom) before '안 좋다' to sound more like a native speaker. It softens the statement.
Don't use with Elders
If talking to your grandfather, use '편찮으세요' instead of '몸이 안 좋으세요'.
