Hi: 안녕= Ahn-young: you say this to your friends, and to adults: 안녕 하새요=Ahn-young-ha-sae-yo

Hello:Same as 'hi;

Bye: to friends, it's the same thing.. but for adults, it's 안녕 이개새요=Ahn-young-ee-gae-sae-yo

You are pretty: 는 이뻐=nuhn-ee-bbuh

You're cute: 귀어워=gwi-uh-wuh [that means cute, but if you want 'you're cute', it's 'nun-gwi-uh-wuh'. 'nun' means 'you']

Hi: Ahn-Young (adults: ahn-young-ha-say-yo)

Hello: Yuh-bow-sae-yo (bow as in bow and arrow) (that's only on the phone)

Bye: Ahn-young (adults: ahn-young-ee-ga-sae-yo)

How are you?: (not exactly, this is how you say, how have you been?) jal-ee-suh-suh?

Fine: (it depends on what you're saying it to)

Well: (same as above)

Not well: (same as above)

You're pretty: eyah-bpuh

You're cute: gui-uh-wuh

You suck: (dunno)

Haha. Those must be hard to pronouce... ^_^"

"How are you?" can also be Ahnyoung Hasehyo if you're being respectful - it's literally, "Have you been well?"

Fine: respectful: "Ahnyoung Haseyo." less respectful, "Jaleessuh." I'm ok = guen chanhe.

Not well: "Himdueruhwuh" = It's been difficult. "Apuh" = I'm hurt or sick. "Jalandueh" = I'm not well.

You suck: "Miwuh" = I don't like you OR Ugly. xd "Shiruh" = I don't like it. "Ssagaji!" = you *****! (it's a weak curse, not the harshest.) "Baboh" = you idiot.

For these three, I agree, there are many different ways to say them and each way has slightly different meanings.

It's hard writing these with English phonetics. whee

Hi: (Informal) Ahn Nyung 안녕 (Formal) Ahn Nyung Ha Se Yo 안녕하세요.

Hello: Same as above or if you're saying "Hello?" then it would be Yeo Bo Se Yo 여보세요

Bye: (Informal) Same as Hi (Formal) (when they are leaving) Ahn Nyung Hee Ga Se Yo 안녕히 가세요.(when they are staying and you're leaving) Ahn Nyung Hee Ge Se Yo 안녕히 계세요.

How are you?: (Informal) Jal Jee Nan Nee? 잘 지냈니? (Formal) Gun Gang Ha Shut Su Yo? 건강 하셨어요? **These are more like a yes or no questions**

Fine: (Informal) Guaan Chan Ah 괜찮아. (Formal) Guaan Chan Ah Yo 괜찮아요. **These answers are for questions such as "Are you okay?"**

Well: I think it would be the same as Fine

Not Well: Just stick "Ahn 않" in front of the answers from Fine

You are pretty: (Informal) Nu Ee Ppu Da 너, 이쁘다 (Formal) Ee Ppu Shi Nae Yo 이쁘시네요.

You suck!!: I would have to say startlight's answer is the best... Well, there are Korean swear words but I don't use them so I won't teach it to you...

You're cute!!: (Informal) Quee Yup Da!! 귀엽다!! (Formal) Quee Yeo Oo Shi Nae Yo 귀여우시네요. **I don't think you say "You're cute!!" to your elders though... I don't recommend using my answers for "You're pretty" and "You're cute"

**Note that there are many different Korean answers that are possible.**
**Also, if you want to make things formal, (in some cases) you can just say Yo 요 at the end of sentences.**
