1. What does it mean?

ㅂㅂ represents the repeated initial consonant of 바이바이, 'bye-bye.' It commonly appears as a brief sign-off before someone leaves a chat or logs out.

Also written or said as ㅂㅂㅂ, ㅂㅇ, ba-i-ba-i

2. The nuance

It is friendly shorthand in the right group, but can feel abrupt after a serious conversation. Use a fuller goodbye when the relationship or situation calls for it.

3. Examples

“나 배터리 없어서 먼저 나갈게. 다들 ㅂㅂ.”

My battery's dying, so I'll leave first. Bye, everyone.

“얘기 재밌었어. 낼 또 보자, ㅂㅂ.”

That was fun. See you again tomorrow, bye-bye.
