  Speaker 1: to a restaurant or you go to a supermarket and
• 0:42
  Speaker 1: you're interacting with the service stuff before you leave you
• 0:45
  Speaker 1: would usually say oh have a good day, bye. Okay
• 0:48
  Speaker 1: well in Korea we don't really have an equivalent in
• 0:51
  Speaker 1: that sense. We actually tell them keep working hard. What? Yeah.
• 0:56
  Speaker 1: I guess in english you would say take it easy
• 0:59
  Speaker 1: which is also quite negative in a way it means
• 1:01
  Speaker 1: like you are, I don't know like somebody says take
• 1:04
  Speaker 1: it easy. It also indicates that you are in this
• 1:06
  Speaker 1: anxious space in a way. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. So the
• 1:09
  Speaker 1: thing about this keep working hard thing in korean, it's
• 1:13
  Speaker 1: just so strange to use but it's so widely used.
• 1:16
  Speaker 1: We don't question it anymore. Okay but it is a
• 1:18
  Speaker 1: positive thing. It doesn't mean that when you tell that
• 1:20
  Speaker 1: to somebody it means they're not working hard. Yeah it
• 1:23
  Speaker 1: doesn't have a negative polite thing and you are acknowledging
• 1:27
  Speaker 1: that that person is working hard. Okay, so it's a
• 1:29
  Speaker 1: good thing then. Yeah, Okay, so you say you go,

• 2:13
  Speaker 1: can use this in any circumstance when you're speaking to
• 2:16
  Speaker 1: service stuff, even let's say you're buying, I don't know,
• 2:18

  Speaker 1: the person has been working hard and you are encouraging
