점메추 [jeom-me-chu]

Lunch menu recommendation

점메추[jeom-me-chu] short for 점심 메뉴 추천[jeom-sim-me-nyu-chu-cheon]:

✅ 점심[jeom-sim]: Lunch

✅ 메뉴[me-nyu]: Menu

✅ 추천[chu-cheon]: Recommendation

This is a cool, shortened expression made by taking the first syllable of each word to create a new word.

It's super popular among K-pop idols and their fans, but you’ll also hear it in everyday life among students, office workers, families, and more.

So, you can say [jeom-me-chu] or just [jeom-sim-me-nyu-chu-cheon] — both are totally fine. 😜

Then what about dinner menu recommendations?

How do you say that?

✅ 저녁[jeo-nyeok]: Dinner

✅ 메뉴[me-nyu]: Menu

✅ 추천[chu-cheon]: Recommendation

If you know [jeom-me-chu] and [jeom-sim-me-nyu-chu-cheon], it's super easy!

Just replace 'lunch' with 'dinner' and you're ready to go! Simple, right? 😊

🔥 Boosting Korean Knowledge

'Morning' in Korean is 아침[a-chim],

so a breakfast menu recommendation would be 아메추[a-me-chu], right?

Exactly! You've got it.

A breakfast menu recommendation is said as 아침 메뉴 추천 or 아메추.

However, since many people skip breakfast because of their busy lives, the words 점메추 and 저메추 are much more commonly used.😂 So there are more people who don't know 아메추 than those who do!
