Licking the surface of a watermelon
2021年04月05日
1. 수박 겉 핥기 [subak geot halkki]
Literal meaning: Licking the surface of a watermelon
It would be equivalent to the English phrase ‘to scratch the surface.’ By only licking the surface, you’ll never taste the sweet inside part and truly experience the watermelon. This proverb means ‘to do something in a superficial way’ or ‘to examine only the superficial aspects.’
수박 [subak] watermelon
겉 [geot] surface, skin
핥다 [haltta] to lick
