Sometimes, there’s some things you’ve just gotta do. The way you would express that is:

 

V + 아/어/해야 되다

or

V + 아/어/해야 하다

 

This grammar structure is used to indicate that it is necessary or mandatory to do something or rather, you have to do something. To form this, you would need to drop -다 from the verb (so all that is remaining is the verb stem) and attach -아/어/해야 되다 or -아/어/해야 하다. 되다 is used at the end of a sentence, mainly when speaking. 하다 is used mainly when writing.
