Questions & Answers about baekmireo-edo sagakjidaega issseupnida.

What does 백미러 mean exactly? Is it a standard Korean word?

백미러 means rearview mirror or more generally a car mirror in everyday Korean.

A useful thing to know is that this is a loanword-style expression used in Korean, from English-like back mirror. It is very common in speech, even though it is not the most literal standard English equivalent.

Depending on context, Koreans may use 백미러 for:

• the inside rearview mirror
• a side mirror
• or car mirrors in general

So the exact mirror type can depend on the situation.

Why is it 백미러에도 and not just 백미러에?

The particle 도 means also, too, or sometimes even.

So:

• 백미러에 = in/on the rearview mirror
• 백미러에도 = also in/on the rearview mirror or even in/on the rearview mirror

That gives the sentence the nuance that blind spots are not only somewhere else, but also in the rearview mirror.

So the sentence suggests a context like:

• Cars have blind spots, and even the rearview mirror has blind spots too.
