Chingudeulgwa yeohaen (go/ eul tteonago) sipeoyo.
친구들과 여행 (고 or 을 떠나고) 싶어요.
을 떠나고 (eul tteonago)
을 떠나고
친구들과 여행을 떠나고 싶어요. (Chingudeulgwa yeohaengeul tteonago sipeoyo.)
I want to go on a trip with friends.
을 떠나고 is used here because -고 싶어요 can’t be attached directly to a noun like 여행 (“trip”). Instead, we need a verb to express what we want to do.
In this sentence, the verb is 떠나다 (“to leave” or “to go on a trip”), and 여행 becomes the object of that verb.
So we add 을 to mark 여행 as the object: 여행을.
Then we attach 떠나고 싶어요 to show desire.
