Show the answer
It means immediately, without delaying.
It is mainly used with verbs and indicates more directly than ‘곧’ (soon) that there will be no delay. It can be followed by a verb or combine with expressions such as ‘바로 + 하다/가다/오다’. In polite situations, it naturally combines with a future or volitional expression, as in ‘바로 가겠습니다’.
