Questions about example sentences with, and the definition and usage of "Off"

A: Like I’m going/goodbye

A: More examples/meaning:
“Hey are you going to that ______ (event)?” “Yeah I’m off, are you?” (meaning I will be going)

“Alright guys I’m off now, see you tomorrow” (in this situation, leaving work at the end of the shift”

As someone else explained, saying “I’m off today” could mean you’re not going to work / school today

These are the 3 situations I can think of, I hear this phrase said in these situations quite regularly

A: "I'm off" could have several meanings.

"As soon as the clock strikes five, I'm off."
"Oh no, I'm going to be late! Right, I'm off. Bye!"

A: "I'm off" can be used the way you use "가요" it means you're going somewhere.
So you can say;
"I'm off to go shopping"
"I'm off to school"
"I'm off to work"
"We are off to school"
"Where are you off to?"
"Where are we off to?"

"I'm off" is what you can say when you're going somewhere instead of "I'm going" :)
