"-기 때문에" vs. "-때문에". 그는 거만한 사람이기 때문에 그를 안 좋아해요. In this sentence, why using "-기 때문에" instead of "-때문에". Thanks!ok i make such explainations to myself: 1) verb + "-기 때문에" = because _____ (i sick because i ate dirty food yesterday.) noun + "-때문에" = because of _____ (i sick because of dirty food.) 2) is/are/am = verb to be = verb to conclude, it's correct using "-기 때문에" in this sentence. ---> i dont like him because he is rude.
