Useful Korean expressions (2) - Drinking 1.

Do you like 'soju'? :) 소주 좋아해요?
Have you ever gone drinking in Korea? I've gone to a job fair for five days and came back today!
Of course I had some drink the last night of the camp even though I am quite weak (전 술 약해요~):P

So, today I'm going to tell you some useful Korean expressions that you can use when drinking! YAY!

Ready? 준비됐어요? :)

1. 저기요, 소주 한 병 주세요. Excuse me, please, give me a bottle of soju.
 Juh Gi Yo, Soju Han Byeong Ju Sae Yo.

We say 'Juh Gi Yo' when calling a worker in a restaurant or you also can say this when calling people that you don't know at all but having something to say. Let's say you saw someone drop his wallet on the subway. In this situation, you can call him either Ahjussi 아저씨! ( a middle-aged man)  or just 저기요! and let him know he dropped it. :)

2. 마셔 마셔~ Drink~ Drink~!
Ma Shuh Ma Shuh

3. 건배! Cheers!
Gun Bae!

We usually say 'Gun Bae' or 'We ha yeo' and then clink the glasses :)

4. 나 취했어*-_-* I'm drunk~~
Nah Chui Haet Uh

If you put 'An' which is a negative before drunk(adjective or verb), it will be 나 안취했어 which means I'm not drunk!
Men usually adore women insisting( of course, in a cute way :P << take a note, gals~) they were not drunk when it's so obvious that they were totally drunk lol


5. 게임하자! > < Let's play some game!
Game Ha Ja!

You know, we love to play some games when having drink.
The penalty for those who lost a game will be to sing a song or have a drink (sometimes a 'bomb shot', so called 폭탄주 pocktanju that is mixed with soju and beer and so on..=P You will need to learn some general games and be well prepared. haha



 *Today's words*

 Juh Gi Yo 저기요 - Excuse me!
 'Gun Bae' or 'We ha yeo' 건배/ 위하여 - Cheers!
Pocktanju 폭탄주 - a bomb shot
Mac Ju 맥주 - beer
Ju ryang 주량 - a limit
