Question about Korea, Republic Of
Why is 느라고 sometimes used with 고생하다 and 수고하다? I thought it is only used to explain why one is unable to do something (ie: 공부하느라고 못 쉬었어요).

oh I just found that we only use "느라" when the situation couldn't be made. I think it's used only for explaining why it is unable to do something and that is just an exception. we also use it like "일하느라 힘들었어" It has very similar meaning with 고생했어.
