저녁

jeonyeok · TOPIK 1

evening

🌆🍽️ One word, two jobs: 저녁 is both the evening and the meal eaten in it

Korean names meals by time of day: 아침 is morning and breakfast, 점심 is midday and lunch, 저녁 is evening and dinner. Sound hook: jeo-nyeok starts like jaw — the evening is when your jaw gets its dinner work.
