아싸a-ssa

Word of the day

아싸 is Korean slang for an outsider, short for 아웃사이더. Its opposite is 인싸 (in-ssa), an insider at the center of the crowd. 탈출 (tal-chul) means escape, so 아싸 탈출 is “escaping outsider life.”

Pronunciation tip. The ㅆ in 싸 is a tense consonant. Say it sharper than a plain ㅅ, with no puff of air.
