Actually this is one of the trickiest one to convey the nuance to foreigners, by only presenting some examples.
Thus. I think it would be better off to perceive the prime meaning of 있어요 first.
It basically means.
as u may already know, that "existing/being present".
For example,
1) existing / being present
(so it could be the phrase as "There is~~/ there exists~~" in English)
- 꽃이 있어요 : there's a flower.
- 별이 있어요 : there is a star.
- 이해 못하는 부분이 있어요
: there are somethings (parts) i don't understand.
- 우리집에 강아지가 있어요.
: there is a puppy in our home.
2) And somethings are to be in our possession, too. ( It stays in - exists & remain as - our posssession.)
-(저는) 시간이 있어요 : i have a time. (to ~verb~)
- 저는 돈이 조금 있어요.
: i have some money.
We could think of such things as "mind / thoughts/ intention...etc" that "exists" or "resides/ is" in us, as well.
So it also goes like 'i have~'
- 그런 마음(생각,의도,의지)이 있어요
: i have such mind (thoughts/ intention/ willingness).
- 한국어를 공부할 마음이 있어요.
: i have intention to learn the Korean language.
- 그녀에게 좋은 감정이 있어요.
: i have a special feeling to(wards) her.
저도 그것과 같은 신발이 있어요.
: i have the same shoes as that.
3) It's often used to denote the state of something/ situation.
in a state of ~~/in a situation of~/ being in
재정이 어려운 상태에 있어요.
: i'm in a bad financial situation.
열쇠는 제가 갖고 있어요.
: it is I who is keeping the key.
(continued state of having the key)
(저는) 머리 자르고 있어요.
: i'm in the middle of getting a haircut
우리는 좋은 관계에 있어요.
We are in good relationship.
Well,,, these are the examples i can give u. Hope it helps.
