Can i call you oppa

Vanessa : As many of you already know, there is a very unusual name that exists only in Korean. However, these titles are widely used not only for family relationships but also for close friends. Usually, it's okay to use this title within a 10 years difference, but it's better to consider another title for people with a higher age difference.

It is a term used without hesitation among close friends within a similar age group. If using to someone close to you with 10 or more years of the age difference, it can give the wrong nuance.

Chris : Ah… Then what term should I use to refer to someone who has a high age difference? Vanessa : When the age gap is too huge, other titles can be used between relationships.

If you're not sure, it's okay to ask the other person directly and decide what to call each other. Chris : Oh, so when a new relationship is created, you kinda have to sort out the title of each other, right? Vanessa : Yes, that is correct. It is better to start with a casual greeting to someone you meet for the first time and ask if it is okay to use the title, rather than not asking and using the title right away.

It can make you look more polite and give you the image of a decent person. Also, within similar age groups, there are alternative titles when we need to show a little more respect or a sense of distance in some cases. Thank you for your lesson on the difference in nuances in titles and expressions that can be used incorrectly. Vanessa : You're welcome. Shall we listen to today's expression together?
