1. 1

   A 할머니, 딱 십 분만 들어 주세요. 내일이 모의재판 결선이라서, 최후 변론을 소리 내서 한 번만 해 보고 싶어요.

   Halmeoni, ttak sip bunman deureo juseyo. Naeiri mouijaepan gyeolseoniraseo, choehu byeolloneul sori naeseo han beonman hae bogo sipeoyo.

   Grandma, just listen for ten minutes. Tomorrow's the moot court final, and I want to try my closing argument out loud once.

   Line 1
2. 2

   B 그래, 해 봐라. 할미가 드라마에서 본 검사처럼 딱딱 따져 줄 테니까. 이상한 데 있으면 바로 끊는다.

   Geurae, hae bwara. Halmiga deuramaeseo bon geomsacheoreom ttakttak ttajyeo jul tenikka. Isanghan de isseumyeon baro kkeunneunda.

   All right, go ahead. Your grandma will pick it apart like the prosecutors on TV. If anything sounds off, I'll stop you right there.

   Line 2
3. 3

   A 좋아요. "존경하는 재판장님, 피고인은 사건 당일 오후 여덟 시에 집에 없었습니다. 따라서 베란다의 화분을 떨어뜨릴 수 없었습니다."

   Joayo. "Jongyeonghaneun jaepanjangnim, pigoineun sageon dangil ohu yeodeol sie jibe eopseotseumnida. Ttaraseo berandaui hwabuneul tteoreotteuril su eopseotseumnida."

   Okay. "Your Honour, on the day in question, the defendant was not at home at eight p.m. Therefore, he could not have knocked the flowerpot off the balcony."

   Line 3
4. 4

   B 잠깐, 이의 있어! 말은 청산유수다마는, 집에 없었다는 증거가 어디 있니?

   Jamkkan, iui isseo! Mareun cheongsanyusudamaneun, jibe eopseotdaneun jeunggeoga eodi inni?

   Hold on, objection! Very smooth, but where's the proof he wasn't home?

   Line 4
5. 5

   A 증거는 여기 있어요. 피고인이 마트에서 받은 영수증이요. 계산한 시각이 일곱 시 사십 분으로 찍혀 있어요.

   Jeunggeoneun yeogi isseoyo. Pigoini mateueseo badeun yeongsujeungiyo. Gyesanhan sigagi ilgop si sasip buneuro jjikyeo isseoyo.

   Here's the proof. The receipt the defendant got at the supermarket. It shows he paid at seven forty.

   Line 5
6. 6

   B 일곱 시 사십 분? 그 마트가 피고인 집에서 얼마나 걸리는데?

   Ilgop si sasip bun? Geu mateuga pigoin jibeseo eolmana geollineunde?

   Seven forty? And how far is that supermarket from his home?

   Line 6
7. 7

   A 걸어서 한 십 분쯤이요. 왜요, 할머니? 뭐가 이상해요?

   Georeoseo han sip bunjjeumiyo. Waeyo, halmeoni? Mwoga isanghaeyo?

   About ten minutes on foot. Why, Grandma? What's wrong?

   Line 7
8. 8

   B 일곱 시 사십 분에 계산했으면 여덟 시 전에 집에 가고도 남지. 영수증은 있다마는, 그게 집에 없었다는 증거는 못 되잖니.

   Ilgop si sasip bune gyesanhaesseumyeon yeodeol si jeone jibe gagodo namji. Yeongsujeungeun itdamaneun, geuge jibe eopseotdaneun jeunggeoneun mot doejanni.

   If he paid at seven forty, he'd have had time to spare to get home before eight. You've got a receipt, sure, but that doesn't prove he wasn't home.

   Line 8
9. 9

   A 잠깐만요, 그러네요. 오히려 피고인이 사건 직전에 그 근처에 있었다는 걸 보여 주는 셈이네요.

   Jamkkanmanyo, geureoneyo. Ohiryeo pigoini sageon jikjeone geu geuncheoe isseotdaneun geol boyeo juneun semineyo.

   Wait, you're right. If anything, it shows he was in the area just before it happened.

   Line 9
10. 10

    B 거봐라. 드라마에서도 변호사가 제 발등을 제가 찍는 일이 수두룩하더라. 증거를 내놓을 때는 그게 누구 편인지부터 따져야지.

    Geobwara. Deuramaeseodo byeonhosaga je baldeungeul jega jjingneun iri sudurukadeora. Jeunggeoreul naenoeul ttaeneun geuge nugu pyeoninjibuteo ttajyeoyaji.

    See? Even on TV, lawyers are always shooting themselves in the foot. Before you put forward evidence, you work out whose side it helps.

    Line 10
11. 11

    A 할머니, 판사님보다 더 무서우세요. 그럼 제 변론은 완전히 무너진 거예요?

    Halmeoni, pansanimboda deo museouseyo. Geureom je byeolloneun wanjeonhi muneojin geoyeyo?

    Grandma, you're scarier than a judge. So has my whole argument collapsed?

    Line 11
12. 12

    B 무너지긴. 할미는 구멍을 찾았을 뿐이다. 그 구멍을 메우는 건 변호사 몫이지.

    Muneojigin. Halmineun gumeongeul chajasseul ppunida. Geu gumeongeul meuneun geon byeonhosa moksiji.

    Collapsed, my foot. Grandma just found a hole. Filling it is the lawyer's job.

    Line 12
13. 13

    A 그럼... 사건 기록을 보면 떨어진 화분은 빨간 플라스틱 화분이었어요. 그런데 피고인 베란다에는 흙으로 구운 화분밖에 없었어요.

    Geureom... sageon girogeul bomyeon tteoreojin hwabuneun ppalgan peullaseutik hwabunieosseoyo. Geureonde pigoin berandaeneun heulgeuro guun hwabunbakke eopseosseoyo.

    Then... according to the case file, the pot that fell was a red plastic one. But there were only clay pots on the defendant's balcony.

    Line 13
14. 14

    B 옳지! 이제야 변호사 말 같구려. 그게 진짜 증거다. 영수증 얘기는 빼 버리고 그걸로 시작해라.

    Olchi! Ijeya byeonhosa mal gatguryeo. Geuge jinjja jeunggeoda. Yeongsujeung yaegineun ppae beorigo geugeollo sijakaera.

    That's it! Now you sound like a lawyer, my dear. That's real evidence. Drop the receipt and start with that.

    Line 14
15. 15

    A 그러면 화분 얘기로 시작하고, 목격자 진술이 서로 엇갈린다는 점으로 마무리할게요. 그러면 훨씬 설득력이 있겠네요.

    Geureomyeon hwabun yaegiro sijakago, mokgyeokja jinsuri seoro eotgallindaneun jeomeuro mamurihalgeyo. Geureomyeon hwolssin seoldeungnyeogi itgenneyo.

    Then I'll open with the pot and finish with how the witness statements contradict each other. That'll be far more convincing.

    Line 15
16. 16

    B 배심원들 얼굴도 봐 가면서 해라. 드라마 보니까 사람 마음은 논리보다 눈빛에 넘어가더라.

    Baesimwondeul eolguldo bwa gamyeonseo haera. Deurama bonikka saram maeumeun nolliboda nunbiche neomeogadeora.

    And watch the jurors' faces as you go. From what I've seen on TV, people are won over by a look more than by logic.

    Line 16
17. 17

    A 할머니, 드라마를 너무 많이 보셨어요. 그래도 할머니 덕분에 오늘 큰 구멍 하나를 메웠네요.

    Halmeoni, deuramareul neomu mani bosyeosseoyo. Geuraedo halmeoni deokbune oneul keun gumeong hanareul mewonneyo.

    Grandma, you've watched too many dramas. But thanks to you, I've plugged a big hole tonight.

    Line 17
18. 18

    B 우리 손녀 변호사 다 됐구려. 내일 끝나거든 할미한테 제일 먼저 전화해라.

    Uri sonnyeo byeonhosa da dwaetguryeo. Naeil kkeunnageodeun halmihante jeil meonjeo jeonhwahaera.

    Look at my granddaughter, a real lawyer now. Call me first thing when it's over tomorrow.

    Line 18
19. 19

    A 네, 제일 먼저 전화드릴게요. 이기면 상금으로 할머니 좋아하시는 갈비 사 드릴게요.

    Ne, jeil meonjeo jeonhwadeurilgeyo. Igimyeon sanggeumeuro halmeoni joahasineun galbi sa deurilgeyo.

    I will, you'll be the first. If I win, I'll use the prize money to buy you the galbi you love.

    Line 19
