Today’s Coffee Chat is about 존댓말 (jon-daet-mal), Korean honorifics.

Why do Koreans speak differently depending on age and relationships? When do we use ‘존댓말’ or ‘반말’? And what does ‘말을 놓다’ mean?

Let’s talk about honorifics through some everyday examples and a little bit of Korean culture.

Don’t worry about learning everything at once. Just listen, relax, and enjoy the conversation.

If I’m speaking too fast, try 0.8x or 0.9x speed.

See you next Sunday!
