It is a weird moment because I thought about 
[1] , [2] , [3] , [4] , [5] , [6] , and [7] .







Late night, Kitchen
# December 2nd, 2017 2:22am
Although I said that I couldn't sleep because I had coffee this evening, the truth was that I was 설레다 to see that friend whom I haven't seen in ten years. As I couldn't sleep, I brewed a tea bag.

The ripples in the cup somehow looked like my mind.

I was worried about how I would appear to her now, but imagining how much that friend, who was closest to me ten years ago, might have changed, made me so 설레다.















설레다 / Seol-Le-Da /



➤    gentle turbulence of mind



Picture a first date or the night before the trip. The tension and nervousness weaved together into a gentle turbulence of the mind exactly shows the emotion “Seol-Le-Da.” Unlike the broader term “excitement,” it stands out by placing a distinct emphasis on the internal state of the mind experienced during moments of expectation.

“Seol-Le-Da” mirrors the agitation of the liquid, painting a nuanced picture of the internal dynamics linked to the anticipation of positive events.

Moreover, “Seol-Le-Da” distinguishes itself by conveying a sense of slightness, a subtlety that sets it apart from excitement.  The soft and gentle sounds of ‘S’ and ‘L’ contribute to this nuanced expression, highlighting the delicate nature of the excitement and anticipation it represents. “Seol-Le-Da” captures not only the emotions associated with heightened anticipation but also the delicacy of the positive feelings.
