What does 재미있겠다 mean?

재미있겠다 means "It seems like it will be fun" in Korean.

How it works here

‘-겠-’ is added to ‘재미있다’ (to be fun), expressing that something seems likely to be fun or that the speaker expects it to be so.

Dictionary form

재미있다

To expect or feel that something will be fun

It is generally used like an exclamation and expresses a future impression or expectation. Rather than saying that something is already fun, it is closer to ‘it looks like it will be fun.’ It is usually formed by adding ‘-겠-’ to an adjective. It is also often used to make a light evaluation.

When it's used

Used when something such as an activity, story, movie, or event looks interesting or enjoyable even though the speaker has not experienced it yet.

The line

오 재미있겠다! 재미있겠다!

Oh, that sounds fun! That sounds fun!
