How to ask if I can call him 오빠..?
This boy is a year older than me using Korean age and I'd like to ask if I can actually call him oppa, in Korean, but I don't know how... Help?

Question

Answer

"오빠라고 해도 돼요?" or "오빠라고 불러도 돼요?" -

"-라고/이라고" is used when you directly quote. (Koreans do not always alert the reader with quotation signs.): 학생이라고 불러도 돼요?
"-아도/어도/해도" is used when you ask permission.: 지금 먹어도 돼요May I eat now? 여기서 운동해도 돼요May I exercise here?
