💡 NoticeThe quotes in this video have been beautifully adapted by me based on the original book's messages to make them perfect for natural Korean study.Hello, Korean learners! Welcome to my cozy space for learning Korean.Are you feeling a bit tired from memorizing words and studying grammar every day? Today, through Victor Hugo's masterpiece 《The Man Who Laughs》, we will talk about what true love really means — and whether we truly see the people in front of us.Listen to my voice calmly and take a moment to give your mind a rest. You can practice accurate Korean pronunciation and take away deep expressions that actual Koreans often use.📌 Useful Expressions from Today's Video1️⃣ 손가락질하다 : to point fingers at someoneIt's used metaphorically when criticizing or looking down on someone.Example: "Don't be too hurt by others pointing fingers at you. You are doing well enough."(남들의 손가락질에 너무 상처 받지 마세요. 당신은 충분히 잘하고 있어요.)2️⃣ 눈을 감아 주다 : to turn a blind eye / to overlookIt refers to generously pretending not to notice someone's mistake.Example: "I'll let it slide this time, so please be a bit more careful from now on."(이번 한 번만 눈 감아 줄 테니 다음부터는 조금 더 주의해 주세요.)💌 Let's Talk!Is there someone beside you who truly sees you? Or are you being that person for someone else? Leave your thoughts in the comments using the expressions we learned today, and I will personally read them and give you feedback!I hope that today, you think of the one person who understands your true self — not through the world's eyes, but through their heart.
