You’re going out on a secret date, and somebody asked you “어디 가는 길이에요?” - How would you answer in Korean?

ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ

very good grammar point , but i’m so busy it’s to catch up

Daniel 하하하 “그냥 돌아다니고 있어요” ^^;;

저는 한번도 그렇게 대답해 본 적 없는 것 같아요. 아마도 사람들이 ‘너 참 할 일 없구나’라고 생각할까 걱정돼서 그랬나 봐요. ㅎㅎ (I’ve never given such an answer before. Maybe because I was afraid that people might think ‘oh you’ve got nothing to do’ LOL)

“왜요”라고 되물으면 사람들이 대부분 “아… 아니 그냥…” 이라고 대답할 거예요 ㅎ 원래부터 물어보는 데에 특별한 이유가 없었을 테니까요.
(If you ask them back ‘why?’ most people will just say ‘um… just … no reaosn/just checking’ because they probably didn’t have a reason for asking in the first place anyway.)

네, they can mean the same thing. But 가는 길이다 is more specifically for the meaning of ‘on one’s way to a place’ for example, you can say ‘집에 오는 길에 Sally를 만났어요’ but you ‘집에 오는 중에 Sally를 만났어요’ is not very natural

And in the same way, you can say ‘지금 밥 먹는 중이에요’ but not ‘지금 밥 먹는 길이에요’

Good question.
좋은 질문이에요.

You can just say 네, 그냥 어디 좀 가요. (yeah I’m just going somewhere) or 네, 갈 데가 있어서요. (yeah, I have a place I have to go to.)

sorry that didn’t post correctly. so if you call and ask me 어디 즘이아? how would i reply? normally i say 아, 거의 다 왔어. but the confusing thing is 와 is used in reference to someone coming to my location and 가 is used for me going to someone else’s location. example: 네 집으로 갈께. 우리집으로 와. or 가는길이야. you would never say 오는길이아 unless maybe 갔다 오는길이아.
