How to study this lesson 4 steps
  1. Read the situation under the title. It says who is talking and how they know each other, which decides how politely they speak.
  2. Read the dialogue line by line with its translation, until every line makes sense. Still learning Hangul? Tick Romanization to see how each line sounds, but read the Korean first.
  3. Download the Anki deck below and review it every day. It has every line of today's dialogue. Review earlier decks too when Anki asks you to.
  4. Spend at least 30 minutes listening to native Korean, for example from the Resources page. It doesn't matter if you don't understand it yet.

  1. A μ–Έλ‹ˆ, 놀라지 말고 λ“€μ–΄. 방금 μŠ€νŠœλ””μ˜€μ—μ„œ μ „ν™” μ™”λŠ”λ°, 본식 사진 찍어 μ£Όμ‹€ μž‘κ°€λ‹˜μ΄ μƒˆλ²½μ— μž₯μ—ΌμœΌλ‘œ 응급싀에 κ°€μ…¨λŒ€.

    Eonni, nollaji malgo deureo. Banggeum seutyudioeseo jeonhwa wanneunde, bonsik sajin jjigeo jusil jakganimi saebyeoge jangyeomeuro eunggeupsire gasyeotdae.

    Sis, don't freak out, just listen. The studio just called. The photographer who was going to shoot the ceremony went to the ER early this morning with a stomach bug.

  2. B 뭐? 식이 두 μ‹œκ°„ λ‚¨μ•˜λŠ”λ°? μž₯λ‚œμ΄μ§€? μŠ€νŠœλ””μ˜€μ—μ„œ λ‹€λ₯Έ μž‘κ°€λ‹˜μ΄λΌλ„ 보내 μ€€λŒ€?

    Mwo? Sigi du sigan namanneunde? Jangnaniji? Seutyudioeseo dareun jakganimirado bonae jundae?

    What? The ceremony's in two hours! You're kidding, right? Is the studio at least sending someone else?

  3. A ν† μš”μΌμ΄λΌ λ‹€λ₯Έ μž‘κ°€λ‹˜λ“€μ€ λ‹€ μ˜ˆμ‹μ΄ μž‘ν˜€ μžˆλŒ€. μŠ€νŠœλ””μ˜€μ—μ„œ μ—¬κΈ°μ €κΈ° μˆ˜μ†Œλ¬Έν•΄ λ΄€λŠ”λ° 제일 빨리 올 수 μžˆλŠ” 뢄이 두 μ‹œ 반이래. κ·Έλ•Œλ©΄ 본식은 벌써 끝났지.

    Toyoirira dareun jakganimdeureun da yesigi japyeo itdae. Seutyudioeseo yeogijeogi susomunhae bwanneunde jeil ppalli ol su inneun buni du si banirae. Geuttaemyeon bonsigeun beolsseo kkeunnatji.

    It's Saturday, so all their other photographers are booked for weddings. The studio asked around everywhere, and the earliest anyone can come is two-thirty. The ceremony will be over by then.

  4. B μ–΄λ–‘ν•΄, 눈물 λ‚  것 κ°™μ•„. μ•„μΉ¨ μ—¬μ„― μ‹œλΆ€ν„° 받은 ν™”μž₯인데 μ§€κΈˆ 울면 λ‹€ λ²ˆμ§„λ‹¨ 말이야.

    Eotteokae, nunmul nal geot gata. Achim yeoseot sibuteo badeun hwajanginde jigeum ulmyeon da beonjindan mariya.

    Oh no, I'm going to cry. I've been in makeup since six this morning, and if I cry now it'll all run.

  5. A μšΈμ§€ 마, μšΈμ§€ 마! μ—¬κΈ°μ„œ 울면 섀상가상이야. 고개 λ“€κ³  천μž₯ 봐. νœ΄μ§€λŠ” λ‚΄κ°€ λŒ€ μ€„κ²Œ. 일단 λŒ€μ•ˆλΆ€ν„° 찾자.

    Ulji ma, ulji ma! Yeogiseo ulmyeon seolsanggasangiya. Gogae deulgo cheonjang bwa. Hyujineun naega dae julge. Ildan daeanbuteo chatja.

    Don't cry, don't cry! Crying now would only make things worse. Head up, look at the ceiling. I'll hold the tissue. Let's find a plan B first.

  6. B μ—„λ§ˆλŠ”? μ—„λ§ˆλ„ 이 일 μ•Œμ•„?

    Eommaneun? Eommado i il ara?

    What about Mom? Does she know?

  7. A 아직. 그게 제일 λ‚œκ°ν•΄. μ—„λ§ˆν•œν…Œ λ§ν•˜μžλ‹ˆ μž…κ΅¬μ—μ„œ ν•˜κ° λ§žλ‹€κ°€ λ‚œλ¦¬ λ‚  κ±°κ³ , 말 μ•ˆ ν•˜μžλ‹ˆ λ‚˜μ€‘μ— μ•Œλ©΄ 더 μ„œμš΄ν•΄ν•˜μ‹€ κ±°κ³ .

    Ajik. Geuge jeil nangamhae. Eommahante malhajani ipgueseo hagaek matdaga nalli nal geogo, mal an hajani najunge almyeon deo seounhaehasil geogo.

    Not yet. That's the trickiest part. If I tell her, she'll lose it while she's greeting guests at the door, and if I don't, she'll be even more hurt when she finds out later.

  8. B 일단 μ—„λ§ˆλŠ” λͺ¨λ₯΄κ²Œ ν•΄. μ•„, μ•„λΉ  μΉœκ΅¬λΆ„ 쀑에 사진 μ°λŠ” λΆ„ κ³„μ‹œμ§€ μ•Šμ•„? λ™ν˜ΈνšŒ ν•˜μ‹ λ‹€λ˜ λ°• 아저씨.

    Ildan eommaneun moreuge hae. A, appa chingubun junge sajin jjingneun bun gyesiji ana? Donghohoe hasindadeon bak ajeossi.

    Keep Mom out of it for now. Oh, isn't there a friend of Dad's who does photography? Mr. Park, the one in the photo club.

  9. A λ°• μ•„μ €μ”¨λŠ” μƒˆλ§Œ μ°μœΌμ‹œμž–μ•„. μ–Έλ‹ˆκ°€ λ‚ κ°œλΌλ„ 달고 λ‚˜μ˜€λ©΄ λͺ¨λ₯ΌκΉŒ.

    Bak ajeossineun saeman jjigeusijana. Eonniga nalgaerado dalgo naomyeon moreulkka.

    Mr. Park only photographs birds. Unless you walk down the aisle with wings.

  10. B μ§€κΈˆ 농담이 λ‚˜μ™€? 웃기지 마, μ§„μ§œ. 웃어도 ν™”μž₯ λ¬΄λ„ˆμ§„λ‹¨ 말이야.

    Jigeum nongdami nawa? Utgiji ma, jinjja. Useodo hwajang muneojindan mariya.

    You're joking at a time like this? Seriously, don't make me laugh. Laughing wrecks the makeup too.

  11. A 그럼 이건 μ–΄λ•Œ? λ‚΄ 친ꡬ 수빈이 사진 μ „κ³΅μ΄μž–μ•„. 였늘 μ‰¬λŠ” 날이라고 ν–ˆμœΌλ‹ˆκΉŒ μ§€κΈˆ νƒμ‹œ 타면 ν•œ μ‹œκ°„ μ•ˆμ— 올 수 μžˆμ–΄.

    Geureom igeon eottae? Nae chingu Subini sajin jeongongijana. Oneul swineun narirago haesseunikka jigeum taeksi tamyeon han sigan ane ol su isseo.

    Then how about this? My friend Subin majored in photography, remember? She said she's off today, so if she grabs a taxi now she can be here within an hour.

  12. B μˆ˜λΉˆμ΄λŠ” 풍경 사진 μ°μž–μ•„. κ²°ν˜Όμ‹λ„ 찍어 λ΄€λŒ€? μ‚¬λžŒ μ°λŠ” 건 μ™„μ „νžˆ λ‹€λ₯΄μž–μ•„.

    Subinineun punggyeong sajin jjikjana. Gyeolhonsikdo jjigeo bwatdae? Saram jjingneun geon wanjeonhi dareujana.

    But Subin shoots landscapes. Has she ever done a wedding? Photographing people is completely different.

  13. A λŒ€ν•™ λ•Œ μ„ λ°°λ“€ κ²°ν˜Όμ‹ μŠ€λƒ…μ€ λͺ‡ 번 찍어 μ€¬λŒ€. μž₯비도 λ‹€ 있고. μ§€κΈˆ λ°”λ‘œ μ„­μ™Έν•΄ 볼게.

    Daehak ttae seonbaedeul gyeolhonsik seunaebeun myeot beon jjigeo jwotdae. Jangbido da itgo. Jigeum baro seoboehae bolge.

    She did snapshots at a few of her seniors' weddings in college. And she's got all the gear. I'll get her on board right now.

  14. B 빨리 ν•΄. μ•„, 그리고 λŒ€κΈ°μ‹€ 사진은 μ–΄λ–‘ν•΄? ν•˜κ°λ“€ μΈμ‚¬ν•˜λŸ¬ λ“€μ–΄μ˜€κΈ° μ‹œμž‘ν•˜λ©΄ μ—¬κΈ°μ„œ 찍어야 λ˜λŠ”λ°.

    Ppalli hae. A, geurigo daegisil sajineun eotteokae? Hagaekdeul insahareo deureoogi sijakamyeon yeogiseo jjigeoya doeneunde.

    Hurry. Oh, and what about photos here in the bride's room? Once guests start coming in to say hello, we need to take them here.

  15. A 수빈이 μ˜¨λŒ€! μ§€κΈˆ λ°”λ‘œ μΆœλ°œν•œλŒ€. κ·Έλ•ŒκΉŒμ§€ λŒ€κΈ°μ‹€ 사진은 λ‚΄κ°€ 폰으둜 μ°μ„κ²Œ. μš”μ¦˜ 폰 카메라가 μ›¬λ§Œν•œ 카메라 λΊ¨μΉ˜μž–μ•„.

    Subini ondae! Jigeum baro chulbalhandae. Geuttaekkaji daegisil sajineun naega poneuro jjigeulge. Yojeum pon kameraga wenmanhan kamera ppyamchijana.

    Subin's coming! She's leaving right now. Until she gets here, I'll shoot the bride's room on my phone. Phone cameras these days put most real cameras to shame.

  16. B μ§„μ§œ? 휴, μ²œλ§Œλ‹€ν–‰μ΄λ‹€. μˆ˜λΉˆμ΄ν•œν…ŒλŠ” λ‚˜μ€‘μ— μ œλŒ€λ‘œ μ‚¬λ‘€ν• κ²Œ. μ›λž˜ μž‘κ°€λ‹˜ λΉ„μš©λ³΄λ‹€ 더 μ€˜λ„ 돼.

    Jinjja? Hyu, cheonmandahaengida. Subinihanteneun najunge jedaero saryehalge. Wollae jakganim biyongboda deo jwodo dwae.

    Really? Phew, thank goodness. I'll pay Subin back properly later. I don't mind giving her more than the original photographer's fee.

  17. A 그건 식 λλ‚˜κ³  μƒκ°ν•˜κ³ . 이제 μ—„λ§ˆ 문제만 λ‚¨μ•˜μ–΄. 식 전에 λ§ν•˜μžλ‹ˆ 괜히 κ±±μ •λ§Œ 끼칠 것 κ°™κ³ , λλ‚˜κ³  λ§ν•˜μžλ‹ˆ 속인 것 κ°™κ³ .

    Geugeon sik kkeunnago saenggakago. Ije eomma munjeman namasseo. Sik jeone malhajani gwaenhi geokjeongman kkichil geot gatgo, kkeunnago malhajani sogin geot gatgo.

    Think about that after the ceremony. Now there's just Mom. If we tell her before, we'll only worry her for nothing, and if we tell her after, it'll feel like we lied to her.

  18. B λλ‚˜κ³  말해. μ—„λ§ˆλŠ” 사진을 λˆ„κ°€ μ°μ—ˆλŠ”μ§€λ³΄λ‹€ λ‚΄κ°€ 웃고 μžˆλŠ”μ§€λ₯Ό 더 보싀 κ±°μ•Ό.

    Kkeunnago malhae. Eommaneun sajineul nuga jjigeonneunjiboda naega utgo inneunjireul deo bosil geoya.

    Tell her after. Mom will care more about whether I'm smiling than about who took the pictures.

  19. A 였, 방금 μ’€ μ–΄λ₯Έ κ°™μ•˜μ–΄. μ•„κΉŒ ν˜Έλ“€κ°‘ λ–¨λ˜ μ‚¬λžŒ λ§žμ•„?

    O, banggeum jom eoreun gatasseo. Akka hodeulgap tteoldeon saram maja?

    Whoa, that was very grown-up. Are you the same person who was freaking out a minute ago?

  20. B μ›λž˜ μ‹ λΆ€λŠ” 감정 기볡이 μ‹¬ν•œ κ±°μ•Ό. 거울 μ’€ 쀘 봐. 눈 밑에 λ²ˆμ§„ κ±° μ—†μ§€?

    Wollae sinbuneun gamjeong gibogi simhan geoya. Geoul jom jwo bwa. Nun mite beonjin geo eopji?

    Brides are allowed mood swings. Give me the mirror. Nothing's smudged under my eyes, right?

  21. A λ©€μ©‘ν•΄. μ•„κΉŒλ³΄λ‹€ 였히렀 더 예뻐. 자, 폰으둜 첫 사진 μ°λŠ”λ‹€. ν•˜λ‚˜, λ‘˜...

    It's perfect. You look even prettier than before. Okay, first photo on my phone. One, two...

  22. B 잠깐, 할아버지 흉내 ν•œλ²ˆ λ‚΄ 볼게. 'ν—ˆν—ˆ, 이제 됐넀그렀.' 할아버지가 무슨 일 ν•΄κ²°λ˜λ©΄ 늘 μ΄λŸ¬μ…¨μž–μ•„. 이 말 ν•˜λ‹ˆκΉŒ μ§„μ§œ 마음이 놓인닀.

    Wait, let me do Grandpa. 'Heh heh, all's well now, eh.' That's what Grandpa always said when something got sorted out. Saying it actually makes me feel better.

  23. A κ·Έ 말투 κ·ΈλŒ€λ‘œ μž…μž₯ν•˜λ©΄ ν•˜κ°λ“€ λ‹€ λ’€μ§‘μ–΄μ§ˆκ±Έ. μ•„, 수빈이 문자 μ™”λ‹€. νƒμ‹œ νƒ”λŒ€!

    Geu maltu geudaero ipjanghamyeon hagaekdeul da dwijibeojilgeol. A, Subini munja watda. Taeksi tatdae!

    If you walk down the aisle talking like that, the guests will be in stitches. Oh, a text from Subin. She's in the taxi!
