언젠가 means someday, one day, or at some point in the future.
In this sentence, it gives the whole statement a future, indefinite time feeling:
- 언젠가 친구를 다시 만날 겁니다.
- I will meet my friend again someday.
It does not mean a specific date. It just means the speaker believes the meeting will happen at some unknown time.
Korean often leaves out the subject when it is understood from context.
So 언젠가 친구를 다시 만날 겁니다 can mean:
- I will meet my friend again someday
- We will meet a friend again someday
- sometimes even He/She will meet a friend again someday
In real conversation, the listener usually knows who the subject is from the situation. Korean does this much more often than English.
를 is the object particle. It marks 친구 as the thing receiving the action of the verb.
- 친구 = friend
- 친구를 = friend + object marker
Since 만나다 means to meet, the person being met is the object:
- 친구를 만나다 = to meet a friend / to meet one’s friend
So in this sentence, 친구를 means (one’s) friend as the object of meet.
