Learn Korean with K-POP | Korean Idiom | [코 앞에 두고]
Right under my nose 👀👃🏻
🤔Are you familiar with the expression "Be (right) under your nose"?
🤓In Korean, this is : 코앞에 두고도 못 알아보다.
🎧 In his new comeback song "Run Away," MINO says that he never wants to see his ex again.
▪️He says "가버려, 코빼기도 보이지 않게" which means "get out of my sight, once and for all."
✔️ Here, we learn the expression "코 앞에 두고도 못 알아보다."
▪️코 = nose / 앞 = in front / 못 알아보다 = cannot recognize
▪️MINO hopes that his ex-girlfriend would change her name and appearance so that he would not be able to recognize her, even if she is standing right in front of him, or "right under his nose."

👩🏻🏫 혹시 이거 빌려줄 수 있어요? - Can you lend me this?
💡 의미 Meaning:
‣ 빌려줄 = base form: 빌려주다 – to lend
‣ 빌려줄 + 수 – Can you lend me
✔️ Grammar rule:
‣ V + (으)ㄹ (주다 → 줄)
💁🏻♀ 설명 Explanation:
‣ “- 수 있어요?” translates to "can I” or “may I”
‣ This is a way of asking not too directly or straightforwardly
‣ Pay attention to the difference between “빌리다" and “빌려주다"
‣ 빌리다 = to borrow; 빌려주다 = to lend, but they are used interchangeably most of the time.
✍🏻 문장 Sentence:
‣ 실례지만, 펜 좀 빌릴 수 있어요? Excuse me, may I borrow the pen?

👩🏻🏫 새빨간 – vividly red
💡 의미 Meaning:
‣ 새빨간 – very vivid red, uber-red

💁🏻♀ 설명 Explanation:
‣ There is not necessarily an equivalent in English for this word, so it may be difficult to grasp
‣ Korean words tend to hold a descriptive quality to them, so adding “새” in front of a word makes that word more accentuated.
‣ For instance, if we say 새 +파란, we put the emphasis on 파란, making blue sound even more vividly blue.
‣ Let’s take a look at the sentences below for more variations!
✍🏻 문장 Sentence:
‣ 새까만 밤하늘 – pitch-black night sky
