In what situation you can use ~구만 and ~구나?
안녕하세요!
친구들, Can you please explain in what situation you can use expression ~구만 and ~구나?
What makes them different? I think I get the feel when I can use ~구나, but still cannot differentiate it from ~구만.
If you can give some examples, that would be really helpful.
고마워요! ^^

~구만 is a wrong form of ~구먼
~구먼 has same meaning and usage with ~구나
The difference is in speech levels.
~구먼 is Hage-che(하게체)
It is used only
- by some older people when addressing younger people, friends, or in-laws in a friendly manner
- between adult male friends, occasionally
- in novels
ex) 자네는 돈이 별로 없구먼!
~구나 is Haera-che(해라체)
It is used
- to close friends or relatives of similar age, and by adults to children
- in impersonal writing (books, newspapers, and magazines) and indirect quotations ("She said that...")
- in grammar books, to give examples
- in some exclamations
ex) 날이 밝았구나!
