Korean Word ‘sobok sobok’ gone viral. What does it mean?

[@taparati5096]

This Chanel is literally using a word used by Jimin in his song to teach us korean, lol

[@cherriesforjm9145]

Jimin's power. It's already 2021 and Christmas Love is still trending in KZbin and spreading sobok sobok love 😂

[@illakiyaprabhu6590]

[@sank080708]

previously Jimin gave us kenyang, kenyang and now he gave us sobok, sobok. cutie

[@iwoshie]

I'm sorry but I laugh so hard reading this 😂😭

[@yoongismom6340]

Lmao. Honestly, that's the phrase i only remember from Jimin's Serendipity the first time i listen to it. 😆

[@aishukrishn8342]

Yes Its from serendipity, but what is its meaning?

[@sank080708]

@@aishukrishn8342 kenyang means ‘just’, you can also look up at the English caption of the Serendipity song mv.

[@danijeld8669]

Similar, yet different enough to represent totally opposite types of sounds: 소복소복, sobok sobok, the sound of smth very _light_ falling and piling 터벅터벅, teobeok teobeok, the sound of someone plodding, walking in slow and heavy steps Both have an adequate feel to it. One sounds a bit lighter, whereas the other is such that one could assume it has to do with something heavy. Besides for creating hand gestures, people in South Korea clearly have a fantastic flair for coining creative mimetic words. 터벅 터벅 is from Korean Unnie's book on best folk tales of Korea. Writing is just one of many things Korean Unnie has a gift for. ^ ^

[@TheBoredKoreansChannel]

the influence BTS has is just unreal👏🥰

[@anonymousneko2764]

'Sobok, sobok' did catch my ears, as it sounds so cute.

[@hanako_0319]

Same 😅

[@mik8622]

Yeah same😂😂

[@ohmygarnis259]

Yes

[@OptimisticCynic715]

Then it's time to stan Kim Sohee.

[@belmin5426]

Sobok sobok is my favorite word now after listening to Jimin's song. The meaning is really beautiful.

[@OptimisticCynic715]

Maybe Kim Sohee "soboksobok" is the next step.

[@watiptyltd2780]

To those who don't know korean. Sobok sobok means that coverd fully by snow and something white color (rice or cotton etc). but it has to be feel warm and looks soft. snowy day in winter, Someday is very cold and windy so, nobody doesn't want to go out. but someday, it totally different. lots of snow are falling but no wind and it just looks like outside would be warm and feels so good. at that time, definitely we can say " snow is piled up sobok sobok"

[@farhanasultana911]

Aishh His each and every word is just cute 😌our Angel's Angelic Voice😭💜

[@chaehyunluvs293]

Thank you this was very helpful Unnie I’m new to learning this language so this really helped

[@trusfratedbunny2215]

It's like...."Tim-tim" is A mimetic word to describe shining of star, "Dhak-Dhak" is A mimetic word to describe Heart throbbing, "Chhuk-Chhuk" describes Running Train, etc. In Hindi...While "Tip-tip" is An onamatopoeia to describe Sound of Rain, "Thak-thak" for Knock-know, etc. In hindi!!!

[@HOusEoFsiERRa]

Jimin and Jimin's "Christmas Love" honestly saved 2020 to be honest. 💛

[@njk-mj3ku]

Crystal clear explanation. Thank you for the guidance in understanding the Korean language better. :-)

[@emmaparker518]

Thank you chimmy for Christmas love

[@삼끼세시]

소복소복,사뿐사뿐,야금야금,살금살금,소근소근, 조근조근,살랑살랑 ... We use these words normally. There are a lots of impressions in Korean. i think... if someone study Korean very hard... She / he can talk with Korean naturally after one year. Coz Korean is also easy to learn language. Its just my opinion haha

[@Rosie-ii7jy]

I think every language has these, like respective use uses of words for adults or official work, different sounds, meaning change when used in different places (respectively). It’s just that English is a language that is built to be easy for everyone to speak. That’s why it doesn’t has it. As English is not my native language I know the difference. We should be great full of the culture and language we were born to because not a lot of people know that and it makes you unique. Every language is cool in it’s on way. And fun fact: you can only express your true feelings through your native language, don’t get me wrong but if you course at your friend who speaks two in there native language they’ll be shook then if you course at them in English. Like this if you say I love you in there native language they’ll feel like way better.

[@suzakurukawa9030]

I love Jimin!

[@AIR-on2dw]

Hangul is a cute language ig.

[@TheTwil1]

Thank you

[@owen3865]

Previously Jimin gave us kenyang, kenyang and now he gave us sobok, sobok thank you Jimin I love you

[@sujeakim9109]

Hangul is a very emotional and fun language, but it is very sad that you can't translate it all into English. There are many emotional and interesting lines in Korean music and dramas, but it is sad to be a boring language. So I recommend you to learn Hangul if you have time. If you learn Hangul and watch a drama, you will see more emotional and interesting words.

[@deeptysidar4072]

So now I'm learning Korean, lol

[@sangita653]

OMG 😱🙀🤯 some of the words are similar to my language for eg kissing one and cat meowing knocking of door and even beating of heart...
