I've been watching coffee prince, and I'm curious about some words. I'm pretty sure they're titles. Initially I thought ahjussi was a name, but it gets used on multiple peolpe, so I think it's a title?
CAn someone explain these terms please?
unni
oppa
noona
hyung
dongsaeng

unni = What girls say to older sisters or girls older than themselves.
oppa = What girls say to older brothers or boys older than themselves.
noona = What boys say to older sisters or girls older than themselves
hyung = What boys say to older brothers or boys older than themselves
dongsaeng = younger siblings
ahjussi is not a name. It is most commonly used for adult men that are around their mid 20's to 40's and even the 50's.
Basically, it's sort of a way to say "Sir, man" in Korean. Hope that helps.
