would you try this K-drama trend??? 😆💞

2025. 10. 2.

❤️ Hello Everyone !!!! ❤️

Hope you're ll having an AMAAAZING week so far~~ It's getting a bit chillier now and I'm so happy because I looooove fall!! Fall in Korean is 가을,

what is your favorite season?!

Let's get right into this week's issue of Teugether! ☺️

What's the trend in Korea this week?! 🇰🇷

This trend based off of one of THE most popular dramas RN!! It's called Bon Appétit, Your Majesty (폭군의 셰프) and it starts the legenday Yoonah from girls generation. 🤗

I haven't watched the show yet (SO NO SPOILERS) but from what I know, it's about a michelin star chef who goes back in time and is a chef for a king????

I honestly think it's such a cute concept but also because the show is about a chef... of course a trend emerges~ (because we know 90% of trends in Korea are food related)

Basically, it's a trend to remake the different recipes from the drama. there are some REALLY good ones like Gochujang Butter Bibimbap or Dwenjang Pasta. All of the recipes are super upscale and unique! So if you're a chef or just like cooking for fun, try making one!! ❤️

+ also watch the drama I hear it's really good 👩‍🍳

Here is a link to some of the recipes

+ yoona and Chef Ahn SungJae (legendary michelin chef)'s youtube video!

Korean Slang of the Week 🎶

“4차원"

(sa-cha-won)

This slang is going to make you sound SO NATIVE you just wait 😀

Let's break it down:

4 (사): 4th
차원: dimension

Okay I know what you're thinking why am I talking about dimensions (is it giving science?) but I SWEAR this is a slang!!

The direct translation is 4th dimension, yes. BUT the meaning of the slang is actually "someone who is unusual/a little out there/quirky"but this isn't like a negative term it's actually pretty positive (it means you're funny and you think OUTSIDE the box) get it? that's why it's 4th dimension~ ❤️

Anyways, use this slang to describe someone and I swear people are going to think you're Korean frfrfr 😎

For example:

멋대로 해! - means "just do whatever you want" (kind of negative vibes)

PRACTICE SPEAKING (try saying it out loud) HERE!

Ask Me Anything! 💘

I KNOW this is a good question because it made me actually think about the difference/when we use each term!! (good job!)

Basically, 힘내 is used when someone is outwardly or seems to be struggling - you would use this one if the person has expressed that they're struggling or have a lot on their plate or that they have something going on (because you don't want to assume that someone needs strength when theyre fine)

힘내 is a supportive term.

When it comes to 화이팅, it's a lot more casual and can be said for literally anything that needs encouragement. Someone doesn't necessarily need support or anything but you just want to encourage them and say - go for it!!! It's alot more energetic where as 힘내 is more reassuring.

화이팅 is an encouraging term.

Hope that makes sense~~~
