ぼっち
의미: Being alone or being a loner. Shortened from 一人ぼっち (hitori bocchi, 'all alone').
ぼっち is used to describe being alone, often with a self-deprecating or humorous nuance. Common compounds include ぼっち飯 (eating alone), ぼっち参戦 (attending an event alone), and ぼっちクリスマス (spending Christmas alone). While it can carry a lonely or sad connotation, many people use it matter-of-factly or even positively to describe enjoying solo activities. The anime 'ぼっち・ざ・ろっく！' (Bocchi the Rock!) brought renewed attention to the term in 2022.

✗ 잘못된 표현
