  • Now everybody in Korea should know this word because it gets this way every summer in Korea, right?

  • Well, not just in the summer, but also in some other seasons.

  • And that word that we're going to learn today is humid, again, humid.

  • So this word you need to know it.

  • And you especially need to mention this word when you describe Korea's weather to any foreigners.

  • Okay, so if they ask, what's the weather like in Korea, you have to say humid.

  • Well, what does humid mean?

  • Well again, Humid is used to describe whether it means that it's very wet and hot, right?

  • You know what I mean?

  • So even my best friend, she comes to Korea every year from Southern California, which is where I'm from, and she complains about this all the time.

  • It's so humid, right?

  • It's so hot and wet and she complains about this because where we're from, it's not like that.
