4. Excessive use of double consonants

You can use a lot of double consonants such as "ㅉ" and "ㄸ". You have to be careful with this way. If you use it too much, people would think you aren't serious.

Contoh:

그랬어? → 그랬쪄? (You did?)

약 먹었어? → 약 먹었떠? (Did you take medicine?)

잘했어 → 잘했떠! (Good!)

6. Memorize these lines:

A parent posted their little girl saying those sentence and it became very popular and many celebrities imitate it. Some people may find it very very gross, be careful.
