"How old are you?" In many cultures, this is the ultimate rude question. But in Korea, it’s the very first thing people need to know. Why? Because without your age, a Korean person feels like they are "driving in a thick fog."
In this episode, we go beyond the surface. It’s not about judging you; it’s about survival. We’ll explore how age acts as a "Social GPS" that determines every verb ending and level of respect in a conversation.

Even if you’ve studied Korean to perfection, why does it still feel like you're hitting an invisible wall?
If you look up "Nunchi" in a dictionary, it is often simply defined as "the ability to gauge a situation." However, to Koreans, Nunchi holds a much deeper significance.
It is the "invisible grammar" hidden beneath the spoken language—a "silent symphony" that orchestrates hearts to harmonize without clashing.
In today’s video, we move beyond rote memorization to explore the true essence of Nunchi: the art of reading the Korean soul.
