V-는 대신
Use V-는 대신 to show replacement or contrast: one action is done in place of another. It is useful when you want to say that you avoid one choice and choose a different one instead. You can reuse it in many situations with a clear trade-off. Example: "늦잠을 자는 대신 일찍 일어났어요." — "Instead of sleeping in, I got up early."
늦잠을 자는 대신 일찍 일어났어요.
Instead of sleeping in, I got up early.
