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 시험대 위에 오르다 : to be put to the testIt's a wonderful metaphor that signifies the moment when one's true skills or value are validated.Example: "The Korean speaking contest starting tomorrow will be a test of my skills." (내일 시작되는 한국어 말하기 대회가 내 실력의 시험대가 될 것 같아요.)2️⃣ 얽매이다 : to be bound / tied downIt refers to a state where the mind or actions are not free and are bound by something.Example: "Aren't you too tied down by what others think of you?" (여러분은 혹시 다른 사람의 시선에 너무 얽매여 있지는 않나요?)💌 Let's Talk!What does true freedom mean to you?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 for today, you can escape from worries about the future and fully enjoy this moment.Please subscribe and like for more videos! 💖⏱️ Timeline & Chapters00:00 Intro: Dancing on the Ruins of Life01:14 Boss, You Are Only Living in Your Head!01:31 Welcome to Jina's Reading Corner02:28 Zorba's Advice: Living in the Present Moment04:23 My Confession: Overcoming Anxiety About the Future05:19 To All Korean Learners Feeling Anxious06:14 Today's Useful Korean Expressions06:26 Expression 1: To be put to the test (시험대 위에 오르다)07:04 Expression 2: To be bound / tied down (얽매이다)07:44 Outro: What Does True Freedom Mean to You?#SlowKorean #LearnKorean #BookTherapy #ZorbaTheGreek #KoreanListening #KoreanExpressions
