Vogue<\/em> to teach a little Korean 101\u2026 and trust us, we\u2019re taking notes.<\/p>\nThe boys know well that quirky idioms don\u2019t always translate. As RM recalls, \u201cAt one of our US concerts in maybe 2018, one of the crew members said to me, \u2018Yo, break a leg.\u2019 It was right before we went onstage, so I was like, \u2018What? Break a leg?\u2019 Those are the kinds of nuances in language that are difficult.\u201d Still, the band bravely soldiered on in their lesson, walking the audience through common Korean words and phrases like \uac00\ubcf4\uc790\uace0, or \u201cgabojago\u201d (\u201cLet\u2019s go!\u201d), and \uce58\ub9e5, or \u201cchimaek\u201d (the popular South Korean culinary combination of fried chicken and beer).<\/p>\n
There are some Korean terms that don\u2019t have a one-to-one equivalent in American English (though some of them\u2014such as \ub208\uce58, or \u201cnunchi,\u201d meaning \u201csocial awareness\u201d or \u201creading the air,\u201d absolutely should!), but BTS\u2019s patience in interpreting and contextualizing a good number of them proves that not only are they genre-defining musical artists, but pretty great teachers, too.<\/p>\n
