나름 usually follows another word to express how a person or thing is distinct from others, similar to "in one's own way". It can also express how an action or its effect can bring about its own unique result or consequence. Examples: (coming after a noun/pronoun - the noun is sometimes dropped) - 나는 내 나름대로 하겠다 = I'll choose to act my own way. - 모든 차는 (차) 나름의 향기가 있다 = Every tea has its own kind of fragrance. (coming after a form of a verb form -ㄹ, -ㄴ, or -기) - 행복하고 말고는 다 제 할 [하기] 나름이다 = Being happy or not is all your own doing. - 합격하고 못 하고는 네가 열심히 하기 나름이다 = Whether you pass the test of not is entirely up to your own hard work. - 사람은 제각기 생긴 나름이다 = To each his own.
