"깐부" meaning in Korean

Noun

IPA: [k͈a̠nbu] [SK-Standard, Seoul] Forms: kkanbu [romanization]
Etymology: Unknown, online hypotheses include: * Corrupted from English combo. * Abbreviation and corruption of Sino-Korean idiom 관포지교(管鮑之交) (gwanpojigyo, “intimate friendship”). * Corrupted from Japanese 株 (kabu), as in 株仲間(かぶなかま) (kabunakama, “business partner, colleague”). The insertion of ㄴ (n) may be due to historical Japanese voiced obstruent prenasalization.
