Usages of yeopseo
여행 가서 예쁜 엽서를 사서 우표도 같이 샀어.yeohaeng gaseo yeppeun yeopseoreul saseo upyodo gati sasseo.
While traveling, I bought a pretty postcard and stamps too.
친구한테 엽서는 보냈지만 소포는 아직 못 보냈어.chinguhante yeopseoneun bonaessjiman soponeun ajik mos bonaesseo.
I sent the postcard to my friend, but I still couldn’t send the parcel.
엽서에 주소를 쓰고 우표를 붙인 다음에 바로 우체통에 넣었어.yeopseo-e jusoreul sseugo upyoreul butin da-eume baro uchetonge neoheosseo.
I wrote the address on the postcard, stuck on a stamp, and put it in the mailbox right away.

“How do speech levels work in Korean?”
Korean has multiple speech levels that indicate formality and politeness. The most common are the formal polite (‑습니다/‑ㅂ니다), informal polite (‑아요/‑어요), and casual (‑아/‑어) forms. Which level you use depends on who you're speaking to and the social context.
