The Basic Greetings

Here's the way you say “Hello.”

안녕하세요?

(The other person will probably say the same thing back to you.) By the way, the word 안녕 means “peacefulness” or “well-being”; this phrase means generally, “Are things peaceful for you?”

The next thing to ask, obviously, is “How are you?”

어떻게 지내세요?

With its response of “Fine:”

잘지내요.
