일단 means something like for now, first, or to start with.

In this sentence, it suggests:

• this is the first step
• do this before anything else
• we are focusing on this action for the moment

So it is a little different from a simple dictionary translation of first. It often has a nuance of let’s do this first and then deal with the rest later.

담당자 means the person in charge, the staff member responsible, or the person handling this matter.

It is made from:

• 담당 = charge, responsibility, being in charge of something
• 자 = person

So 담당자 is not necessarily a boss or manager. It usually means the relevant staff member or the person responsible for this task/process.

-에게 marks the recipient or target person of the action. Here it means to the person in charge.

So:

• 담당자 = person in charge
• 담당자에게 = to the person in charge

In this sentence, the application form is being shown to that person.

With people, Korean often uses:

• -에게 = neutral/written
• -한테 = more conversational
• -께 = honorific, more respectful

So these are possible alternatives:

• 담당자에게 = neutral
• 담당자한테 = casual/conversational
• 담당자께 = more respectful

-를 is the object marker. It marks what is being shown.

So:

• 신청서 = application form
• 신청서를 = the application form (as the object)

In this sentence:

• 담당자에게 = to the person in charge
• 신청서를 = the application form
• 보여 주세요 = please show

So the form is the thing being shown, which is why it gets -를.

Not exactly. In everyday Korean, 보여 주다 means to show.

A useful way to learn it is simply:

• 보여 주다 = to show
• 보여 주세요 = please show

Literally, it has the idea of let someone see or show for someone, but for learners it is best to remember it as a single expression meaning to show.

So:

• 보다 = to see, to look at
• 보여 주다 = to show

That is why 보여 주세요 means please show rather than please look.

Here, 주세요 is part of the polite request pattern -아/어 주세요, which means please do ...

So:

• 보여 주세요 = please show

Even though 주다 by itself means to give, in this grammar pattern it often works like a polite request marker.

A beginner confusion is thinking this always means give me. In this sentence, it does not mean give the application form to me. It means please perform the action of showing.

So the whole ending is best understood as:

• 보여 주세요 = please show it

It is polite everyday Korean.

The ending -아/어 주세요 is commonly used for:

• instructions
• requests
• service situations
• speaking politely to someone you do not know well

It is polite, but not the most formal possible form.

Compare:

• 보여 줘 = casual
• 보여 줘요 = polite conversational
• 보여 주세요 = polite request
• 보여 주십시오 = more formal

So the sentence sounds natural in many real-life situations, such as at an office, desk, or service counter.

Korean very often leaves out the subject when it is obvious from context.

In a request or instruction like this, the subject is usually understood as you.

So the full idea is something like:

• (You) please show the application form to the person in charge first.

But Korean usually does not say 당신은 in this kind of sentence, because that would sound unnatural or overly explicit.

Subject omission is one of the most common features of natural Korean.

Yes, Korean word order is somewhat flexible, as long as the particles stay correct and the verb comes at the end.

The given sentence is:

• 일단 담당자에게 신청서를 보여 주세요.

You could also say:

• 일단 신청서를 담당자에게 보여 주세요.
• 신청서를 일단 담당자에게 보여 주세요.

These all mean roughly the same thing.

However, the verb usually stays at the end, and the original version sounds very natural. Korean often changes word order to shift emphasis rather than basic meaning.

Yes, often you can.

• 먼저 = first, before others
• 일단 = for now / first step / to begin with

They overlap, but the nuance is slightly different:

• 먼저 focuses more on order
• 일단 often suggests let’s do this first for now, and then we’ll see

So:

• 먼저 담당자에게 신청서를 보여 주세요.
• 일단 담당자에게 신청서를 보여 주세요.

Both are natural, but 일단 can sound a little more like start with this.

Not literally. The literal meaning is show the application form to the person in charge.

However, in real context, that may function like:

• present it
• show it for checking
• bring it to the staff member
• let the staff member look at it

If you specifically want to say submit, Korean often uses a more explicit verb such as:

• 제출하다 = to submit

So:

• 신청서를 제출해 주세요. = Please submit the application form.

The original sentence sounds more like show/present it first, not necessarily officially hand it in.

You will see both:

• 보여 주세요
• 보여주세요

For learners, 보여 주세요 is a very safe and commonly taught spacing.

In real life, many people also write 보여주세요 with no space, especially in casual writing, messages, or signs.

So if you are studying carefully, use:

• 보여 주세요

That will look natural and clear.

A helpful breakdown is:

• 일단 = first / for now
• 담당자에게 = to the person in charge
• 신청서를 = the application form
• 보여 주세요 = please show

So the structure is basically:

time/order word + recipient + object + verb

That is a very common Korean pattern. Since Korean is an SOV-type language, the verb comes at the end, and particles show each noun’s role.
