Welcome to Wikinae’s Korean Slang #6

Where do you usually work out?

Since the pandemic, many people have been working out at home. This has led to an increase in the use of today’s term🏋️

In today’s post, let’s find out how Koreans say “at-home workout”!

✔️홈트 is the abbreviation of ‘홈 (Home)’ and ‘트레이닝 (Training)’ which means ‘at-home workout’ or ‘working out at home.’

In Korea, “트레이닝 (Training)” often refers to the process of developing the form or function of the human body to a higher level, mainly through exercise.
Therefore, in the Korean language, you will often find this word used in Konglish form for words related to exercise.
