Do you ever struggle to say “no” without feeling awkward or guilty? In Korean culture, how we refuse something can say a lot about our character and emotional intelligence. 
In this episode of our Korean Podcast, we explore 쿠션어﻿ — “cushion words” that soften your tone and make refusals sound caring instead of cold.

Learn how to politely turn down invitations, decline favors, or express limitations while maintaining harmony and respect. We’ll go through real-life examples such as refusing a wedding invitation or declining work requests, and we’ll unpack why adding warmth can preserve relationships — and your peace of mind.

If you’ve ever said “I’ll think about it” just to avoid sounding rude, this episode will help you find the right words. Improve your Korean communication skills, emotional fluency, and confidence in social situations.
