Feeling drained by the summer heat?
Cool down the Korean way by asking for a refreshing glass of water:
“Siwonhan mul han jan juseyo” (시원한 물 한 잔 주세요)
“Siwonhan” means cool and refreshing, and “juseyo” is a polite way to say please give.
Use this phrase at restaurants, cafes, or anywhere you need a chill break — you’ll not only get your water, but also win smiles for your polite Korean!
