I learned a new word today. A co-teacher in the lunch room use the word 시원하다, and had me repeat it. I remembered it and asked an English co-teacher if I remembered correctly. She confirmed that I was correct and also supplied me with a definition
“예. When you have a soup like 콩나물, you will feel warm and comfortable in your stomach. Especially when you have a hangover after drinking alcohol.^^”
She asked me if there was something similar in English and all I could think of was “Hearty Meal”, but Satisfying or Invigorating might also work. What do you guys think?
Hearty: Pronunciation: \’här-tē\
