一心

• 병음: yī xīn
• 한자 분석: 一 = one (single, undivided); 心 = heart radical (heart and mind — seat of intention, feeling, and will)

뜻

한마음으로; 오로지 한 가지에 몰두하여

Functions as an adverb modifying verbs: 一心扑在工作上 (throwing oneself wholly into work), 一心为公 (single-mindedly serving the public interest), 一心求成 (focused solely on achieving success). Positive connotation emphasising purity of intent. Less emphatic than the four-character 一心一意 but broader in use.
