There's verb in Korea.
Fix the cowshed after loosing cows.
- est 14y agoIs it 망우보뢰(亡牛補牢)? It's actually Chinese (亡羊补牢 from 戰國策).
- helpbygrace 14y agoThe translation is almost same, however, the meaning is quite different. Chinese 망양보뢰 means that it is not too late to fix the cowshed after lost. Korean, however, shows the useless of the fixing activity. Later connotes the regret. :)
