AKA Kyungsang Dialects
Want to learn Daegu Satoori (North Gyeongsangdo)? What about Busan Satoori (South Gyeongsangdo)? Or at least want to understand them?
At least I do. Every since I heard BTS’s Satoori Rap I knew I wanted to learn Daegu satoori (anyone else’s bias Yoongi?? lmao yall can hmu on my kpop blog @mint-suga).
