Stop off on the way — or go back and forth

Attached to a completed action, 가다 means carrying on onward afterwards: 화장실 먼저 들렀다 가기로 'we'll stop at the toilet first and then go', 석규형 흉내 내다 가 'do your Suk-kyu impression before you leave.' Half these lines are the fixed 왔다 갔다 하다, 'to go back and forth' — 형이 왔다 갔다 하는 소리 다 들렸거든요 'I could hear you going back and forth.' Both are everyday spoken Korean.
