Singer in Korean 🇰🇷

가수 info.

Tips to remember:
• Associate “가수” (ga-su) with Lady Gaga—a famous singer. The beginning “가” reminds you of “Gaga,” while the short ending “수” completes the word.
• Picture the word “가수” as a combination of “가” (starting sound like “gaga”) and “수,” making it a neat two-syllable term for someone who sings.

Explanations:
• “가수” (ga-su) means “singer” and refers to someone, usually professional, who sings.
• It is a common term in Korean for vocal artists in various music genres.

Other words that mean the same thing:
• 보컬 (bo-keol) – “vocal,” often used as a synonym for singer.
• 가창자 (ga-chang-ja) – another term for singer, though it is less common in everyday use.

Alternate meanings and slang:
• There are no widely recognized slang or alternate meanings for “가수” beyond its literal meaning of “singer.”
