Jag kände att detta är det enda ämnet jag kan prata om denna veckan eftersom min PMS är väldigt påtaglig. Jag pratar om PMS och reder ut vad det egentligen är, vad är symptomen för PMS och PMDS? Är PMS när man har mens eller är det innan? Lyssna och lär : )

PMS innebär återkommande psykiska och/eller fysiska besvär under menscykelns lutealfas. Det infaller några dagar efter ägglossning fram till menstruation.

안녕하세요.
오늘은 좋아하는 노래에 대해서 이야기할 거예요.

저는 며칠 전에 우연히 어떤 가수의 노래를 듣게 되었어요. 
처음 들어 보는 노래였는데 듣자마자 완전히 빠져 버렸어요.

가사도 너무 좋고, 멜로디(melody)도 너무 제 스타일이었어요.

그래서 그날 이후로 하루 종일 그 가수의 노래를 듣고 있어요.

좋아하는 것을 말할 때, 그게 너무 좋을 때 ‘빠지다’, ‘빠졌어요’라고 말할 수 있는데 ‘푹’을 같이 말하면 정말 너무 좋아한다는 것을 표현할 수 있어요.

저는 요즘 그 가수에게 푹 빠졌어요.
저는 요즘 그 가수의 노래에 푹 빠졌어요.
저는 요즘 떡볶이에 푹 빠져서 매일 떡볶이만 먹어요.
저는 요즘 외국어 공부에 푹 빠져서 하루에 두 시간씩 열심히 공부하고 있어요.

이렇게 내가 특별히 아주 좋아하는 것이 생겼을 때 ‘푹 빠지다’ 말할 수 있어요.

아, 참고로 제가 푹 빠진 가수는 LUCY라는 한국 가수입니다. 노래의 분위기가 정말 제가 좋아하는 분위기이고, 특히 가사가 정말 예술이에요. 정말 좋아요. 너무 예쁜 가사입니다.

여러분도 좋아하는 가수가 있어요?
요즘 푹 빠져서 자주 듣는 노래가 있어요?
있으면 저에게도 알려 주세요. : )

한국어를 공부하는 여러분 모두,
좋아하는 노래를 들으면서 행복한 시간을 보내고 있기를 바랍니다. 

감사합니다.
