-은 나머지: As a Result Of… — Outcome After That Act

Q: Positive?

Yes — 기쁜 나머지 울었다.

Pattern 나머지 「003」 after -(더)ㄴ: the result that comes from that prior situation.

Before this, make sure you know: -은 결과 , -은 , -아요 / -어요

How to form it

When	Form	Example
Verb / adjective + -(으)ㄴ 나머지	-(으)ㄴ 나머지	급한 나머지 / 기쁜 나머지 / 바쁜 나머지
With -던	-던 나머지	참던 나머지

-(으)ㄴ 나머지 means as a result of… / to such an extent that… — the outcome that follows from that act or state.

Why this is hard

It packages cause and heavy result in one noun frame. Learners treat it as soft because and miss the ‘left-over / to that degree’ colour: often too much of X leads to Y.

What it does

You name an excessive or decisive prior state, then the consequence.

너무 급한 나머지 실수를 했어요.
기쁜 나머지 소리를 질렀어요.
피곤한 나머지 일찍 잤어요.
걱정한 나머지 전화를 걸었어요.

Forms

Adnominal -(으)ㄴ + 나머지.

When not to use it

Do not use it for mild everyday because. Do not drop the adnominal and write 급하다 나머지. Do not treat it as pure time ‘the rest of’ without result.

Neighbours — and why they differ

Form	Why it is not this slot
-아서/어서	Everyday so / because — lighter.
-은 결과	As a result — report summary, less ‘excess’.
-기 때문에	Because — cause without 나머지 colour.

Written and spoken both appear; the degree flavour is the clue. Mild reasons do not need this noun.

Classroom examples should keep the meaning concrete: one clear scene beats three vague glosses. If a neighbour form already says the same thing more lightly, prefer the lighter tool unless register demands this one.

Ask: am I saying ‘from that degree / leftover force of X, Y happened’? If yes, -(으)ㄴ 나머지. If you need soft because, use -아서/어서.

Do not confuse it with

-은 결과

as a result of — the written summary phrase

-(으)니까

because (works before commands and suggestions)

-는 탓에

because of (blameworthy fault) — assigning blame strictly for bad outcomes

1. You were in such a rush that the leftover force of that haste spilled into a real mistake — not a mild everyday ‘because’. Which line carries that excess-into-outcome colour?
