Nice song. I don't listen to K-pop but maybe I'll start it might help me learning Korean. Any other recommendations would be great. 감사합니다.

조심해야지 듀오링고님. 곰은 꽤 위험하잖아~

[GlitchySou]

Ah, Doulingo. But what about huging a twink?

[Jeong-JinL]

So far my favorite way of referring to these things as far as I've come across—In German it's Kuschelbär(en) which is literally "cuddle bear(s)." They are a kind of Kuscheltier(e) "cuddle animal(s)."

Why is this sentence in the Passive section? It is Active voice. Nov.28, 2019.

[SashoNr1]

It's introducing the verb 안아다 which is used in other sentences.

[mickey030210]

Shouldn't it be 'I hug a bear?' It says '곰을 안아' not '곰들을 안아'. Maybe it would've made more sense if it said '나는 곰들을 안아.' Just my thought on this one.

[joonas01234]

No. "I hug a bear" and "I hug bears" are both equally correct. 들 is most of the time omitted.

[Myles288]

I believe it is because it says 곰을 using the 을 object marker meaning it's not talking about a specific bear but bears in general.

English is weird in this way.
Because we don't have a way to vary the context of what were speaking of unless we describe it in more detail.
English comprehension:
I hug bears. Bears = multiple

Korean comprehension:
I hug bears. (나는 곰을 안아) Bears = generalization of bears not multiple
