Nuance Dictionary / Overwhelm & Struggle

지치다 ji-chi-da

To become exhausted, drained, and worn out, physically or mentally

Not just tired for a night — this is the slow-drain kind of exhausted, built up over days of grinding through something with no real rest. If you've worked six days straight and even your favorite show can't hold your attention anymore, you're '지치다'.
