Question about Korean
What does the 그만 in "난 그만 갈게." mean?
그만 means stop so I'm a bit confused. I know that the sentence means "I'll get going" but does the 그만 emphasize something? Like "Since I'm DONE, I'll get going"?

제 생각에 "난 그만 갈게"라는 말은 '(하던것을 이제 멈추고) 난 갈게' 라는 의미로 주로 사용되는것 같아요.
그래서 "그만"은 '방금 하던것을 멈추고'라는 뜻이 있는것 아닐까요.
예시로 함께 놀던 친구가 "난 그만 자러갈게"라고 하면 놀던것을 그만하고 자러 가겠다는 뜻이죠.
그냥 관습적으로 사용되는 표현같아요.
