'Satoori' or otherwise known as dialect, is something Koreans would use especially when they live in regions outside of Seoul such as Gyeongsang Province, Gangwon Province, Jeju Province and so on. In South Korea, there are about six different kinds of dialect.
In the K-Pop industry, there are many idols who do not come from Seoul! Interestingly when they speak 'Satoori' on broadcast or during fan meetings, fans fall head over heels for them.
Shall we check out who those charismatic idols are?
