意思
Asking for a more flexible or approximate meeting time.
文化背景
Korean culture values 'indirectness'. Asking 'around when' instead of 'exactly when' shows you are a person with 'Baeryeo' (consideration) for others' busy lives. In a Korean office, the subordinate usually asks '언제쯤 만날까요?' to the superior, but the superior usually decides the final time. On KakaoTalk, this phrase is often shortened or accompanied by 'ㅠㅠ' or 'ㅎㅎ' to make it sound even friendlier and less like a formal request. If meeting someone much older, you would replace '만날까요' with '뵐까요' to show proper respect.
The 'Jjeum' Magic
If you are unsure about a time, always add '쯤'. It makes you sound more relaxed and polite in Korean.
Spacing Matters
Don't put a space between '언제' and '쯤'. It's '언제쯤', not '언제 쯤'.

常见问题
4 个问题Yes, but it's even better to use '언제쯤 뵐까요?' to be extra respectful.
'쯤' is for points in time (when, 3 o'clock), while '정도' is for durations (3 hours, 5 days).
For very close friends, yes. Use '언제 볼래?' instead. For acquaintances, it's perfect.
You can say '2시쯤 어때요?' (How about around 2?) or '아무 때나 괜찮아요' (Anytime is fine).
