are there any korean speakers who can give an idea of the formality levels that groups use when speaking amongst themselves? would it differ on camera to off?
i dont really have any particular group in mind, i'd just like to know what the general custom is (im under the impression than the younger speak formally to anyone older than them and the older speak informally to anyone younger than them) and if there are any notable exceptions
not a native korean speaker or a fluent one at that, but i think most groups use banmal to speak with each other.
yes, you're right that the younger speak formally to anyone older than them and the older speak informally to anyone younger than them but younger people can be granted permission to speak informally by those older than them. it's a sign of their closeness. they would still use words like hyung and unnie as a sign of their respect but not necessarily formal language.
here's a good explanation of banmal and how and when it's used - http://www.dramabeans.com/2010/07/glossary-banmal/
in terms of on camera and off, i think everyone is more mindful on camera. so, "shi" might get attached to names instead of "hyung" or "noona" but it's more when you speak of a group member rather than speaking to them. there off camera, there's probably more swearing and slang :D
still reading imagineyourotp tumblr and now i really need my oppars to cover baby it's cold outside ;~~~; is there a christmas special or smth this year
the weekly music shows usually hold christmas specials! i remember music bank, music core and inkigayo having them a couple of years ago, i'm not sure about last year tho
i had a really shitty day today but i came up with a great idea for a christmas present for my boyfriend so it kind of balances out? i love it when you think up the perfect idea for a gift for someone. what a nice feeling. :3
Mod here. Is it okay if we vote on whether we're going to have a break after the next part instead of this part? We're only less than a hundred comments before this part ends and personally, I want to wait for the other anons before deciding on this.
lol i'm an infinite fan but i don't remember when i last participated in infinite-related threads. they all seem to be about snuggyu (i thought infinite anons had left and only snuggyu anons remained) or myungeol which i don't ship so duncurr.
