Korean Through Games: Hongsam (홍삼)

This game (like a lot of Korean games) is played with the same beat as the Frying Pan game (lap clap right thumb left thumb)

*see gif below*

Intro:

아싸 홍삼 에브리바디 홍삼! 🎵

아 lap 싸 clap 홍 right 삼 left 에브리 lap 바디 clap 홍 right 삼 left

아싸 | assa (general cheer)

홍삼 | red ginseng

에브리바디 | Korean pronunciation of everybody

Rules:

첫 번째로 시작한 사람은 “아싸~ 너! 너!” 라고 외치며 두 사람을 지목합니다

The first person to start yells, “Assa~ you! You!” and picks two people

지목을 당한 두 사람은 “아싸~ 너!”라고 외치며 각자 한 명씩 다른 사람을 선택합니다. 속도가 빠를수록 게임의 난이도는 높아지니 스피드를 점점 UP 시켜주세요~!

Those two chosen people yell, “Assa~ you!” and each choose a person. The faster the speed, the higher the level of difficulty, so slowly speed up how fast you go!

서로 다른 사람을 지목하다 두 사람이 한 사람을 동시에 지목했다면 지목 당한 사람이 “아싸~ 홍삼~!” 이라고 말하며 자신만의 제스처를 보여줍니다. 그럼 다른 사람들도 모두 함께 “에브리바디~ 홍삼~!” 이라고 외치며 제스처를 따라 해야 합니다.

If the two people both pick the same person, the chosen person has to say, “Assa hongsam!” while doing a gesture of their choosing. And everyone else has to follow by responding with “everybody hongsam!”

그리고 지목을 받은 사람이 다시 처음으로 돌아가 “아싸~ 너! 너!” 라고 외치며 두 명을 지목합니다. 

And the person who was chosen has to start over from the beginning with, “Assa~ you! You!” and pick two people.

*you lose by not responding/choosing someone after being pointed at. ( basically if you miss your turn, you lose)*

Loser usually has to drink or receive some type of punishment

Vocab:

외치다 | to yell/call out

지목하다 | to pick

선택하다 | to choose

따르다 | to follow

속도 | speed

난이도 | level of difficulty

turn off your adblocker and put the video on repeat. do not skip ads. let it play on loop whether you’re listening or not. mute the tab if you need to focus elsewhere. but let. it. play.

youtube will donate to blm for you.

please, please reblog. for people who don’t have money to spare, this is incredibly important information to have.

[casismybestfriend]

@poguesgold Thank you for bringing attention to this. I checked the comments there and some Kpop fans who have experience with this say to not watch on repeat, and keep the volume at least 50% (but you can still mute the tab or plug headphones in)

I have no experience with this strategy, but as I’ve seen more than one comment there with the same advice I’d assume this is true about YouTube’s algorithm

냄새 vs 향기

There can be quite a bit of confusion when it comes to using 냄새 or 향기. I think if you look both of them up, they will probably come back as “smell” (the noun). But there’s a couple different uses for both

냄새

Usually this is used in bad cases, but there are obviously exceptions

술 - alcohol

음식 - food

발 - feet

겨드랑이 - armpit

풀 - grass/glue

똥 - poo

가솔린 - gasoline

커피 - coffee (can be used with either)

향기

Usually this is used more positively and can translate more to aroma/fragrance. Sometimes you will see it written as 향.

비누 - soap

꽃 - flowers

로션 - lotion

샴푸 - shampoo

커피 - coffee

Sample Sentences

우리가 클럽을 떠난 후에 철수는 술 냄새 났어. After we left the club, Cheolsu smelled like alcohol.

한강은 봄에 꽃 향기 나요. The Han River smells like flowers in the spring.

네가 냄새나서 좀 싰어라! Go shower cause you stink!

난 일어나자마자 커피 향 맡았다. I smelled coffee as soon as I got up.

어 빵 냄새… 먹고 싶다…! I smell bread… I want some!

Bonus Phrases

향이 강하다 | to smell strong

향이 약하다 | to smell weak

냄새 좋다 | to smell good

냄새 빠지다 | for a smell to go away

짙은 향이 | strong/heavy smell

냄새 고약하다 | to smell foul

악취 나다 | to stench (악취 by itself is a stench)

좋은 냄새 풍기다 | to give off a good smell

Ver II: Korean Bucket List & Goals

My first Korean Bucket List post has so far been my most popular and I’ incredibly thankful for that. However, a lot has changed since I got here and I’d like to make a new post to mirror that.

I’m actually in in the Suwon campus, not the Seoul campus, so that makes a lot of my goals harder to check off and farther away than I want. I also have a month of experiences now and know what to…

DMZ Trip: 3/16/19

My favorite experience so far since I got here has been my trip to the DMZ Third Tunnel.

I went with a really big group from my class and it was amazing. The bus we took had disco lights and cool curtains ans we listed to a bunch of random Korean songs and American 90s songs on the way there. I think at one point we were all singing along to ‘Breaking Free’ from High School Musical.

We all…
