意思
A polite wish for someone to maintain good health.
文化背景
Health is often discussed openly in Korea. It is not considered rude to tell someone they look tired and should '건강하세요'. The body is considered a gift from parents. Staying healthy is a way to honor one's ancestors. Idols often end their live streams with '건강하세요' to their fans (ARMY, BLINK, etc.), showing a parental-like care for their supporters. In business, wishing health is a way to 'soften' a request or a rejection in an email.
The 'Double Blessing'
Combine it with '행복하세요' (be happy) to sound like a native. '건강하고 행복하세요!' is the ultimate kind closing.
Not for Toasts
Never say '건강하세요' when clinking glasses. Use '건배' (Geon-bae) instead.
