Cultural Insight
Becky: Now it's time for a quick cultural insight.
Kyejin: Sino-Korean words have been used for a long time and are an important part of the Korean vocabulary. And many Sino-Korean words have their native counterparts. 고마워(gomawo.) and 고맙습니다(gomapsseumnida.) are native Korean expressions of "Thank you." Have you heard of 감사합니다(gamsahamnida.)? That's right. 감사합니다(gamsahamnida.) is the Sino-Korean way to express "Thank you."
