Meaning: A carefully curated, aesthetically pleasing lifestyle emphasising handmade things, natural materials, and mindful living — often used ironically.

精致生活——强调手工制作、天然材质和用心生活的精心策划的美学生活方式，经常被反讽使用。

Un estilo de vida cuidadosamente curado y estéticamente agradable que enfatiza lo hecho a mano, los materiales naturales y la vida consciente, a menudo usado con ironía.

정성스럽게 꾸린 심미적인 생활양식 — 수제 물건, 천연 소재, 마음 챙김 생활을 강조하며, 종종 아이러니하게 쓰인다.

丁寧な暮らし became a social media trend featuring carefully staged photos of homemade bread, linen clothes, wooden furniture, and minimalist interiors. While some genuinely pursue this lifestyle philosophy, it is frequently mocked as performative — an Instagram aesthetic requiring significant time and money that is passed off as simple living. The ironic usage has become almost as common as the sincere one.

丁寧な暮らし成为了一个社交媒体潮流，特征是精心摆拍的自制面包、亚麻衣物、原木家具和极简室内设计照片。虽然有人是真心追求这种生活哲学，但它经常被嘲讽为作秀——一种需要大量时间和金钱却被伪装成朴素生活的Instagram美学。反讽的用法几乎和认真的用法一样常见了。

丁寧な暮らし se convirtió en una tendencia en redes sociales con fotos cuidadosamente escenificadas de pan casero, ropa de lino, muebles de madera e interiores minimalistas. Aunque algunos siguen genuinamente esta filosofía de vida, se ridiculiza a menudo como algo teatral: una estética de Instagram que requiere mucho tiempo y dinero, pero que se vende como vida sencilla. El uso irónico se ha vuelto casi tan frecuente como el sincero.

테이네이나 쿠라시(丁寧な暮らし)는 정성 들여 만든 빵, 린넨 옷, 원목 가구, 미니멀리즘 인테리어의 정성스럽게 연출된 사진을 특징으로 한 SNS 트렌드이다. 이 생활 철학을 진심으로 추구하는 사람도 있지만, 상당한 시간과 돈이 필요한 인스타그램 미학을 소박한 삶으로 포장한다며 자주 조롱당한다. 아이러니한 용법이 진지한 용법만큼이나 흔해졌다.
