In Korea, slang or shortened phrases are used a lot in text conversations. This is especially common among younger groups like high school or middle school-age students. I recently watched a youtube video that went over the differences between the slang that people usually use nowadays (which we learned about in class with my tutor Jimin), and the slang that was popular in the 90's. This difference was both really interesting to see what changed in Korean culture throughout that period of time.
