–는 듯한
This pattern means 'as if' or 'seeming like.' It attaches to a clause or verb stem to create an impression rather than a factual statement, which makes descriptions feel vivid and slightly indirect. It is especially useful in descriptive and literary writing. Example: '그는 아무 일도 없었던 듯한 표정으로 미소 지었다.'
그는 아무 일도 없었던 듯한 표정으로 미소 지었다.
He smiled with an expression as if nothing had happened.
