What is Korean Honorifics and Identity Shifting about?

This study examines Korean honorifics, arguing they are not merely politeness markers but social indexes that help construct identity and change footing in conversations. It challenges the traditional view that honorifics strictly reflect social hierarchies, suggesting that speakers actively choose honorific forms based on context. The research highlights the dynamic nature of speech style shifting in Korean TV shows, demonstrating how honorifics play a role in creating engaging interactions.
