Gen Z vs Gen Z: How their enemies at work are now themselves</strong></p> <p>기사요약: 기존에 MZ와 기성세대 간의 갈등을 다룬 TV프로그램들이 인기를 끌었다면 요즘엔 MZ들 간의 안보이는 신경전을 다루는 프로그램들이 늘어나며 많은 이들의 공감대를 얻고 있다.&nbsp;</p> <p>[1] For millennials and Generation Z – those who were born between the early 1980s to early 2010s, respectively – clashing with their bosses at work has been popular material for television comedy in South Korea over the past few years. But recently, the skits took a new turn, with many of them poking fun at how their real enemy at work is not their bosses, but themselves.</p> <p><strong>*skit: (조롱하는) 촌극, 희문&nbsp;</strong></p> <p><strong>*take a new turn: 새로운 국면이 전개되다</strong></p> <p><strong>*poke fun: 조롱하다, 바보취급하다, 놀리다&nbsp;</strong></p> <p><br></p> <p>[2] In the episode's last scene, the boss suggests, "How about we all get some Starbucks coffee?" Instead of offering to get the coffee as junior staff are often expected to, the new recruits say that they want Iced Americanos. The other MZ staff awkwardly smile while cursing to themselves until finally the only male employee grudgingly offers to go.</p> <p><strong>*recruits: 신입사원&nbsp;</strong></p> <p><strong>*awkwardly: 어색하게</strong></p> <p><strong>*grudgingly: 마지못해, 꺼리다&nbsp;</strong></p> <p><br></p> <p>[3] In recent years, the rise of “young kkondaes” has become a major topic of conversation in Korea. The term "kkondae" is widely used among Koreans to refer to baby boomers who create an uncomfortable workplace dynamic through their condescending and authoritarian attitude. However, this term has evolved to include all age groups.</p> <p>Young kkondaes are millennials or Gen Z who demand absolute obedience from fellow millennial or Gen Z colleagues, despite being only a few years apart in age or career experience.</p> <p><strong>*become a major topic: 화제가 되다&nbsp;</strong></p> <p><strong>*condescending: 거들먹거리는, 잘난 체하는</strong></p> <p><strong>*authoritarian: 권위주의적인&nbsp;</strong></p> <p><br></p> <p>기사원문: https://www.koreaher
