A Korean Phrase for Asking About Someone's Job: "직업이 뭐예요?"
"직업이 뭐예요?" means "What is your job?" and it's the basic Korean expression used to ask about someone's occupation. It's often used in self-introductions and when meeting someone for the first time. To answer, you use the form "저는 ~예요" (I am a ~), as in "저는 가수예요" (I'm a singer). You can keep the conversation going by reacting to their answer with something like "정말 멋지네요!" (That's really cool!).
