The Korean language has absorbed thousands of years of Chinese character culture. In particular, **'Saja-seong-eo'** (์ฌ์์ฑ์ด), metaphorical expressions from Confucian texts, are frequently used in daily life. Saja-seong-eo, consisting of four Chinese characters with historical backgrounds, explain situations and deliver messages, making them especially useful in Korean workplaces. Advanced Korean learners should familiarize themselves with Saja-seong-eo. Let's learn five Saja-seong-eo through the following conversation.
