[edit]Usage notes
[edit]- This was the term used for coffee when it was first introduced to Korea in the late nineteenth century, but has since been displaced by the direct English borrowing. In contemporary contexts, it is usually found only in various brand names of cafés, etc., for stylistic effect.
