How to Say ‘A Glass of Cold Water, Please’ in Korean – Beat the Summer Heat Politely

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!
