안녕하세요! In this lesson, we are looking at one more way of talking about the future. In addition to -(ㅇ)ㄹ 거예요, which we already introduced in Level 2 Lesson 1, there is another form that you will often here in everyday spoken Korean, which is -(으)게요.



Listen in to find out how these two are different and why it is important to know the difference!

    저는 재작년 여름 연세대에 한 학기동안 다녔었는데요. 이 욉싸이트를 알게 된지 2~3주 밖에 안되었는데도 벌써 연세대의 한국어 수업을 들었을때보다 문법에 대한 도움을 많이 받은거같네요. 이번 녹음을 듣기 전에, ‘-(으)ㄹ 거예요’ 와 ‘-(으)ㄹ게요’는 초급 같은 문법이라도, 어떻게 다른지 정확히 몰랐어요. 감사드리고 싶군요. 계속해서 재미있고 유익한 녹음을 해주시기를 바랍니다.

    B: 아, 그래요? 저도 갈게요. (Ah, is that so? I will come too.)

    A: 빅뱅이 그리고 에픽하이가 노래는 것을 너무 좋아요! (Big Bang and Epik High’s songs are very nice!)
    B: 진짜? 나 듣을게요. (Really? I will listen to it then.)
