Show the answer
A word used to ask or indicate in which direction or toward where someone is going.
This is an adverb expressing direction and is mainly used with movement or direction verbs such as ‘가다’ (go), ‘오다’ (come), and ‘가리키다’ (point). Compared with ‘어디’ (where), it more clearly asks about a direction or destination. It is the form with the case particle ‘-로’ attached and is common in conversation.
