잘 지내셨어요 in english - jal jinaesyeoss-eoyo in english

When you meet someone, you say hello, or say hi.

generally, we use "안녕하세요.".

<In following situations.>

- When you meet someone who you know on the street.

- When you meet someone new.

- When you see your teacher at school in the morning.

- Shortly, everywhere every time you meet or see someone.

<Let's talk>

Ken : 안녕하세요~

Tom : 안녕하세요~

Ken : Hello~

Tom : Hi

* Some people using English sometimes say hi when they eye-contact with someone else, but we usually don't.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

<situation1-1>

You are going to meet one of your acquaintances tonight. You haven't seen him/her for a while.

You want to ask him/her like this. "How have you been?" 

We usually use "잘 지내셨어요?".    

                     "잘 지냈어요?"      

                                            : If I translate them literally, it is "Have you been doing well?" 

                                              so basically you need to answer them yes or no.

                                             You can just think the subtle difference of them is the level of respect. 

<in a following situation.>

      - You can use this expression when you meet someone who you haven't meet for a while.

<Let's talk 1>

지용 : 안녕하세요~잘 지내셨어요?       <Korean with respect (informal)>

선생님 : 어, 잘 지냈어.                  <Korean to younger people.>   

지용 : Hi, How have you been?

teacher : Good, Good. (I have been so good.)

<Let's talk 2>

수진 : 안녕하세요~잘 지냈어요?

재경 : 예 뭐, 그럭저럭 지냈어요.

수진 : Hi, How have you been?

재경 : Well, not bad.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

<situation 1-2>

a similar expression. It's exactly like "How have you been?".

We use "어떻게 지내셨어요?"                     How have you been? 

 "어떻게 지내고 계세요?"                 How are you doing?                      <So, both of them are basically same.>

 "어떻게 지냈어요?"                       How have you been?

 "어떻게 지내고 있어요?"                 How are you doing?                      <So, both of them are also basically same.>

: I will not talk about the subtle difference between the first two sentences and the others.

If you need the explanation of that, go back to <situation 1-1>.

<Let's talk 1>

재범 : 안녕하세요, 어떻게 지내셨어요?

승엽 : 잘 지냈어요. ^^

재범 : Hi, how have you been?

승엽 : So far so good. (I've been great.)

<Let's talk 2>

윤아 : 안녕하세요, 어떻게 지내고 있어요?

윤아 : Hi, how are you doing?

종국 : So great. I study Korean with my friends these days.

: when you answer to it, You can say more about what you do these days specifically.
