As a Korean Language enthusiast, I sometimes find my self uttering some of Korean expressions or words. Like the word 아이구 – aigoo or 아이씨 just comes out when I am a little irritated, dismayed or disappointed. Watching Korean dramas and movies makes you notice these common expressions that people would use in regular conversation.
From one drama to another this expression without even looking at dictionary or consulting my super helpful Korean friends, the word 깜짝이야 (kkamjjagiya) is an expression of surprise.
I hear it a lot of times although it’s a bit too long for an expression of surprise compared to my native language. Here is a video of how it is said, the video is taken from posts of learnkoreanwithlily from Youtube.
In Filipino language when we are surprised, we typically utter random words like kalabaw (cow), huh, susmaryosep, etc but Koreans actually have the word for it 🙂
It Started with Hangul 
I say that word too much even around English people haha!
hello~ I’m Lady Vhalyn Are you busy right now? I was wondering if I could ask you a favor. If you have the time, can you help me translate my letter in Korean? I’m sending this to a Kpop Idol that I really love. This was just a once in a lifetime time opportunity. I don’t even know if he could received. I know you have a lot of experiences in learning Korean Language. You even have been mingling with some Korean people. So, I guess you can help up me in your own little ways. Ah~ here it is.
