How to Say “Hare Krishna” in Korean

하레 크리슈나
하레 크리슈나 is the Korean way to say the phrase hare krishna.

Did you know?

  • Because Korean has no 'r' sound equivalent to the English one, the 'r' in 하레 is pronounced as a soft flap, making it sound closer to a 'l' to English ears.
  • In Korea, practitioners often pair the chanting of 하레 크리슈나 with the offering of 'prasadam', which is specially prepared sanctified food given to passers-by.
  • Because 'hare krishna' is a foreign religious phrase, it is written in the Korean alphabet, Hangul, using phonetic transcription rather than using Chinese-based characters.
