Separate time, ability and intention

Explanation

Past, future, obligation and possibility are different claims. 갔어요 says someone went; 갈 거예요 normally gives a future plan or prediction. 가야 해요 means that going is necessary. 갈 수 있어요 means that going is possible. A distractor can preserve the verb but change this relationship.

Watch negative expressions too. 안 가요 says that someone does not go; 못 가요 says that they cannot go. In a passage, a reason such as 일이 있어서 may explain an inability to accept an invitation. Do not turn that reason into an agreement to attend.
