한국으로 "narcissist" 뭐예요?
In English, someone who is in love with his/her own image (in the mirror, in a picture, etc) is referred to as a "Narcissist" from the Greek story of Narcissus. What is an equivalent term in Korean?

My dictionary does not have this word. Google say "자기 도취자", Bing Translator say "애자" and one other translator sais 자기애 (without “자, 쟁이, 애우자 or anything else I would associate with a person possessing such a trait or behaving in such a manner.)

So can you please give me an equivalent, and an example sentence?

Thank you.

Answer

자기도취 (in one word) is narcissism, and 자기도취자 narcissist.

자아도취 has the same meaning, but is slightly less popular.

나르시시즘(or 나르시즘) and 나르시시스트 (나르시스트) seem to be as commonly heard as 자기도취.

Examples:
- 그는 쉽게 자기도취에 빠진다.
- 페이스북 같은 곳을 가 보면 자기도취자들이 참 많은 것 같다.
- 일세의 걸작을 당장 창조하겠다는 영웅 심리나 자기도취는 금물이야.  
- 지금 그는 자기가 천재라는 자아도취 상태에서 헤어나질 못하고 있다.

Answer

Narcissist = 자기 도취자.
Google translator is correct.

자기 자신을 사랑하거나, 훌륭하다고 여기는 사람을 자기 도취자라고 한다.
