Korean Vocab #11 [Big Bang Special Edition]: Tae Yang


Well, he looks like he is breathing to me! Big Bang ALIVE concept is really different anyway this time. :)

Today's Korean Vocab:
숨을 쉬다 soom-eul swi-da: Breathing

The first word - 숨 soom, means Breath (noun).

Very wellknown word among us, isn't it? Which Beauty wouldn't know this ever famous song from BEAST? Part of the lyrics said "숨이 막혀 soom-i mak-hyeo" which means suffocated.

How it forms the word suffocated is by using "숨 soom: breath" and "막혀 mak-hyeo: block", so literally it means suffocate! Don't you think Korean language is just so fun? :)


Other Tips:
If you want to say that a guy is "too handsome until you can't breathe", you can use the below line:
너무 잘생겨서 숨을 못쉬겠어!
neo-mu chal-saeng-gyeo-seo soom-eul mot-swi-gyesseo!

너무 잘생겨서 숨을 못쉬겠어!
neo-mu chal-saeng-gyeo-seo soom-eul mot-swi-gyesseo!
Too handsome, I can't breathe!!

Her Korean Things Says:
To be honest, I prefer Big Bang's Tonight cover compared to ALIVE. Nevertheless, I can't breathe when I look at TOP! If I were to vote for my favourite group for it's originality, I will always vote for Big Bang, especially with GD in it. No one can recreate GD's song. What do you think?
