Hello there again Ms. [이름]!
We use who when referring to people or when we want to know the person.
When who is the object, whom, with a preposition, can be used instead, but it is formal and rather old-fashioned.
In modern speech, we use who, or we leave out the pronoun.
For examples:
You are referring to a person who no longer works here.The person to whom you are referring no longer works here.The person (who) you are you referring to no longer works here.
We use which to refer to a thing or an idea, and to ask about choices.
Whose is a possessive pronoun used to refer to ownership.
I hope this will you understand this.
