When you go to a restaurant in Korea and want to tell the waiter what you want to eat, you use the word 주문. It means 'order,' specifically for food or drinks.
For example, if you're ready to order, you might say, '주문할게요' (I'll order). Or, if the waiter asks if you're ready, they might say, '주문하시겠어요?' (Would you like to order?)
When you're at a restaurant in Korea, you'll often hear the word 주문 (jumun). This means 'order' in the context of asking for food or drinks.
You can say 주문할게요 (jumunhalgeyo) which means 'I'll order' to let the staff know you're ready. After you've decided, you can then tell them what you'd like.
Sometimes, the staff might ask 주문하시겠어요? (jumunhasigesseoyo?), which is a polite way of asking 'Would you like to order?' or 'Are you ready to order?'.
It's a very practical word to know when you're dining out in Korea!

- Use 주문 when you're ordering food.
- Common in restaurants and cafes.
- You can use it as a noun or with 하다 (hada) to make it a verb.
§ Understanding 주문: What it means
주문 (joo-moon) is a core Korean word that directly translates to "order" or "request," specifically in the context of food or drink at an establishment like a restaurant or cafe. It's a fundamental word you'll need to know for dining out in Korea. Think of it as the action you take when you tell the server what you want to eat or drink.
§ Basic Usage of 주문
- Korean Word
- 주문 (joo-moon)
- Definition
- a request for food or drink in a restaurant, café, etc.
- Grammar Note
- It is a noun. To make it a verb, you usually add 하다 (ha-da) to form 주문하다 (joo-moon-ha-da), meaning "to order."
When you're ready to order, you might use phrases like:
주문
여기요, 주문이요! (Excuse me, order please!)
§ Mistakes people make with this word
Learning a new word means understanding its boundaries. Here are common mistakes English speakers make with 주문:
Using 주문 for general requests or commands: In English, "order" can mean to command someone (e.g., "I ordered him to clean his room") or to request something generally (e.g., "I ordered a new book online"). However, in Korean, 주문 is quite specific to ordering food or drink. You wouldn't use 주문 when asking someone to do something or when buying items online that aren't food/drink.
Incorrect: 저는 제 친구에게 방을 청소하라고 주문했어요. (I ordered my friend to clean his room.)
This sounds unnatural. You'd use a different verb like 명령하다 (myeong-ryeong-ha-da - to command) or simply ask (부탁하다 - bu-tak-ha-da).Incorrect: 저는 새 책을 온라인으로 주문했어요. (I ordered a new book online.)
For online shopping, you'd typically use 구매하다 (gu-mae-ha-da - to purchase) or 사다 (sa-da - to buy).Confusing it with 예약 (ye-yak): While both involve securing something in advance, 예약 means "reservation" (e.g., for a table, a hotel room, a ticket). 주문 is about the specific items you want to eat or drink *at* that reserved table, or generally when you walk in.
식당에 테이블을 예약했어요. (I made a table reservation at the restaurant.)
지금 주문하시겠어요? (Would you like to order now? - *referring to food/drink*)
Not using the verb form correctly: As a noun, you need to attach 하다 (ha-da) to make it a verb. Saying just "주문" when you mean "to order" is like saying "order" instead of "to order" in English – it's grammatically incomplete.
Incorrect: 저 김치찌개 주문. (Me kimchi stew order.)
Correct: 저는 김치찌개를 주문할게요. (I will order kimchi stew.)
§ What '주문' Means
- Korean Word
- 주문 (ju-mun)
- Word Type
- Noun
- CEFR Level
- A1
- Definition
- A request for food or drink in a restaurant or any establishment where you order something to be made or delivered.
When you go to a restaurant, a cafe, or even order something online, '주문' is the word you'll use for 'order.' It refers to the act of requesting goods or services, especially food or drinks.
§ How to Use '주문' in Sentences
Let's look at some practical examples so you can start using '주문' right away.
음식 주문할게요. (Eumsik jumunhalgeyo.)
- Hint
- I will order food.
여기 주문 받으세요? (Yeogi jumun badeuseyo?)
- Hint
- Do you take orders here? (Literally: Do you receive orders here?)
인터넷으로 주문했어요. (In-teo-net-eu-ro jumunhaesseoyo.)
- Hint
- I ordered online.
제 주문 번호는 1234입니다. (Je jumun beonho-neun 1234 imnida.)
- Hint
- My order number is 1234.
§ Similar Words and When to Use '주문' vs. Alternatives
While '주문' is your go-to for ordering food and items, there are other words in Korean that are related to requesting or asking for something. Understanding the nuances will make your Korean sound more natural.
- 요청 (yo-cheong): This word means 'request' or 'demand'. It's more general than '주문' and can be used for formal or informal requests that aren't necessarily about purchasing goods. For example, you might make a '요청' to a hotel for an extra blanket, or '요청' for a meeting. It's about asking for a favor or a specific action, not typically a purchase.
도움 요청합니다. (Doum yocheonghamnida.)
- Hint
- I request help.
- 신청 (sin-cheong): This translates to 'application' or 'request', often used for formal applications like applying for a membership, a course, or a service. You '신청' for something that requires processing and approval, not a simple purchase of food.
회원 신청했어요. (Hoe-won sincheonghaesseoyo.)
- Hint
- I applied for membership.
- 예약 (ye-yak): This means 'reservation' or 'booking'. You '예약' a table at a restaurant, a hotel room, or a ticket for a show. While it's a type of 'order' in a broad sense, it specifically refers to reserving something for future use, not the immediate ordering of an item for consumption.
식당 예약했어요. (Sik-dang yeyakhaesseoyo.)
- Hint
- I made a restaurant reservation.
In summary, use '주문' when you are ordering food at a restaurant, coffee at a cafe, or placing an order for a product. Use '요청' for general requests or favors. Use '신청' for formal applications. And use '예약' when you are making a booking or a reservation for a specific time or date.
How Formal Is It?
"주문하시겠습니까? (Jumunhasigetseumnikka?) - Would you like to order?"
"주문할게요. (Jumunhalgeyo.) - I'll order."
"주문하자. (Jumunhaja.) - Let's order."
"주문하자! (Jumunhaja!) - Let's order!"

Use with the verb 하다 (hada) to mean 'to order' or 'to make an order'. For example, 주문하다 (jumunhada).
저는 불고기 2인분 주문했어요. (I ordered two servings of bulgogi.)
Can be followed by 을/를 (eul/reul), the object particle, when the order itself is the object of another verb. For example, 주문을 받다 (jumuneul batda) 'to take an order'.
직원이 우리의 주문을 받았습니다. (The staff member took our order.)
Can be used with 주다 (juda) to ask someone to place an order for you. For example, 주문해 주세요 (jumunhae juseyo) 'Please order for me'.
이 음식을 주문해 주세요. (Please order this food for me.)
Can be used as a noun in phrases like 주문 내역 (jumun naeyeok) 'order details' or 주문 번호 (jumun beonho) 'order number'.
주문 내역을 확인해 주세요. (Please check the order details.)
When asking 'What would you like to order?' or 'What is your order?', you can use 무엇을 주문하시겠어요? (mueoseul jumunhasigesseoyo?) or 주문하시겠어요? (jumunhasigesseoyo?).
무엇을 주문하시겠어요? (What would you like to order?)

如何使用
When you're at a restaurant and ready to tell the staff what you'd like to eat or drink, you use 주문 (jumun). Think of it as the act of 'placing your order.' You can say something like, '주문할게요 (jumunhalgeyo),' which means 'I'll order.' Or, if someone asks if you're ready to order, you might hear '주문하시겠어요? (Jumunhasigesseoyo?)', meaning 'Would you like to order?'
A common mistake for English speakers is trying to directly translate 'order' in other contexts. Remember, 주문 is specifically for ordering food or drinks at an establishment. If you want to 'order' someone to do something, or 'order' a book online, you would use different Korean words. For example, '명령하다 (myeongnyeonghada)' means to command or order someone, and '주문하다 (jumunhada)' can also mean to order something online, but in that context, it's usually clear from the situation. For a restaurant, 주문 is your go-to noun.

常见问题
10 个问题The Korean word for 'to order' is 주문하다 (jumunhada). It combines the noun '주문 (jumun)' (order) with the verb '하다 (hada)' (to do).
While '주문' is often used for food or drink in a restaurant, you can also use it for ordering things online or by phone. For example, '온라인 주문 (online jumun)' means 'online order'.
Both '주문하다' and '시키다 (sikida)' mean 'to order'. '주문하다' is generally a bit more formal or neutral. '시키다' is very commonly used, especially for ordering food for delivery or in a casual setting. You can think of '시키다' as 'to make an order' or 'to get something ordered'.
You can say:
- 여기요, 주문할게요. (Yeogiyo, jumunhalgeyo.) - Excuse me, I'll order.
- 김치찌개 하나 주세요. (Kimchi jjigae hana juseyo.) - Please give me one kimchi stew. (This implies ordering it.)
For ordering clothes or other items that need to be specially made or delivered, yes, '주문' is appropriate. For simply buying something off the shelf, you'd use a different word like '사다 (sada)' (to buy).
To cancel an order, you'd say 주문 취소 (jumun chwiso). '취소 (chwiso)' means 'cancellation'. So, '주문 취소하다 (jumun chwisohada)' means 'to cancel an order'.
Not typically. '주문' specifically refers to placing an order, usually for goods or services. For a general request or favor, you would use words like '요청 (yo-cheong)' or '부탁 (butak)'.
'주문 받다 (jumun batda)' means 'to take an order'. For example, a waiter would '주문 받다' from a customer.
Yes, a few useful ones are:
- 주문하시겠어요? (Jumunhasigetseoyo?) - Would you like to order? (Often asked by staff)
- 주문했어요. (Jumunhaesseoyo.) - I ordered. (Past tense)
- 주문이 밀리다 (jumun-i millida) - To have a backlog of orders.
Korean nouns don't typically change for pluralization like in English. If you want to specify multiple orders, you'd usually use a number or context. For example, '두 개의 주문 (du gae-ui jumun)' would mean 'two orders'.
