🌟 중이 제 머리(를) 못 깎는다

Proverbs

1. 자기가 자신에 관한 일을 해결하기는 어려운 일이어서 남의 손을 빌려야만 이루기 쉽다.

1. A BUDDHIST MONK CANNOT SHAVE HIS OWN HAIR; YOU CANNOT SCRATCH YOUR OWN BACK: It may be difficult to take care of something related to oneself, so one may need help from others to get it done.

🗣️ Usage Example:

♔ 너는 명색이 의사가 그렇게 술 담배를 많이 해?
Do you have a reputation as a doctor who drinks and smokes so much?
♕ 그래서 중이 제 머리 못 깎는다잖아.
That's why jung can't cut my hair.
