MANNAM FRIENDS~! Do you know 행쇼??

MANNAM FRIENDS~! Do you know 행쇼(Hang-show)??

Koreans like to shorten the words.

Here are some funny shorten words that you might have heard.

행복하십시오(Be Happy) is shorten to-> 행쇼(Hang-show)!

Everyone 행쇼!

What is 행쇼? It means be happy:J

Do you remember ‘행복하다’ from last lesson?

행복하다 is Happy. 

‘하십시오’(ha sip si oh) is highest level of honorific form which means ‘do’.

So, It is like commandment, advise to elders.

When you read ‘하십시오’ faster, it sounds like ‘하십쇼’(ha sip show). Isn’t it?

In conclusion, from ‘행복하십쇼’(hang bok ha sip show), take ‘행’ and ’쇼’ and put it together!

행쇼! It is famous form teenagers because at Korean famous entertainment TV Show ‘무한도전’(Muhandojon=Ultimate Challenge) GD form BigBang made this word and used it!

From now on, Why don’t we say ‘행쇼!’ instead of saying bye?

MANNAM friends, let’s spread happiness~~~~~~
