KOREAN VOCABULARY - DIRECTIONS (우치)

Hello everyone... I'm back! 
This time we wil learn about directions in Korean. By learning about directions, we will be able to say about directions in Korean language. So when we get lost in Korea, we could ask someone about directions to go to somewhere. Now, let's look at the following situation and conversation.

Mary and Jane have a vacation to Korea. After going around Seoul, they want to go to Dongdaemun market , but they don't know the direction. And then they ask to a pedestrian. Let's see how they are asking about direction in Korean:


Mary         : 아저씨실례합니다. 말씀 좀 묻겠습니다.
                 silyehamnida. Malsseum jom mutkesseumnida.
                 Excuse me sir, I want to ask.


Pedestrian : 네, 말씀하세요
                  Ne, malsseumhaseyo
                  Yes, please

Mary         : 동대문 시장이어디에 있읍니까?
                  Dongdaemun sijangi eodie isseumnikka?
                  Where is Dongdaemun market?

Pedestrian : 동대문 시장이에요? 이 길로 계속 가면 사고리가 나와요.
                      거기에서 왼쪽으로 돌아가면 동대문 시장이 있어요.
                      Dongdaemun sijangieyo? Igillo gyesok gamyeon sageoriga
                   nawayo. Geogieseo oenjokeuro doragamyeon dongdaemun
                   sijangi isseoyo.
                   Dongdaemun market? If you go ahead this way, there is an 
                   intersection. From there go turn right, Dongdaemun market
                   is there.

Jane          : 얼마나 가야 돼요?
                   Eolmana gaya dwaeyo?
                   How far is it?

Pedestrian : 한 200 미터쯤
                 Han ibaek miteojjeum
                 At about 200 meter

Mary+Jane : 네, 알겠습니다. 감사합니다 아저씨.
                  Ne, algesseumnida. Kamsahamnida ajeossi.
                  Well, thank you sir.
