How to say must/need to in Korean?
안녕하세요!
What is the difference between ~해 야 돼요 and ~해 야 해요?
For example: do these sentences have the same meaning?
나는 한국어를 공부해 야 돼요.
나는 한국어를 공부해 야 해요.
감사합니다!

As for the word spacing, I agree with languagemuffin.^^/
"-해야 해요" is the standard, but "-해야 돼요" is much more commonly used in everyday Korean.^^/
Literally, "-해야 해요" means "-have/has to do something", on the other hand, "-해야 돼요" has a sense of "something has to be done".
However, in most cases both are interchangeable.

They are almost same. You can use both.

I don't think there is a space, either. 나는 한국어를 공부해야 돼요.
나는 한국어를 공부해야 해요. I have to study Korean.

As far as I know, they are mostly always interchangeable. Although, a native speaker may know if there are certain situations that call for the sole use of one or another.
