Sunbae

"Sunbae" is a Korean word that means senior or elder to a person in their profession.

"Sunbae, I got these printed out for you,"
"Sunbae had to take a leave because she/he was not feeling well,"

The best day of the week. A lazy Sunday spend with bae.

How was your weekend, dude?

It wasn't great at first, then I had brunch on Sunbae and turned the whole mood around.
