The word '안색[ansaek (complexion)' is used to describe the facial expression or color. '안색이 안 좋다.[ansaegi an jota.] (one's complexion doesn't look so good)' is used when someone's complexion doesn't look good or is gloomy. How is your 안색 today? Why don't you take a look at the people around you? How is their complexion? If they don't look so good, why not ask how they're doing?
