시간
sigan · TOPIK 1
time, hour
⏰ 시간 = 時 (time) + 間 (interval): a stretch of time
From hanja 時間, the same compound as Chinese shíjiān and Japanese jikan. 시 alone counts clock hours (세 시 = three o'clock), while 간 means a gap or span. Together they name both time in general and an hour's duration (두 시간 = two hours).
