Day 70: No Photographer on Wedding Day
In the bride's room two hours before the wedding, Soyeon (A) has to break some news from the photo studio to her older sister Jiyeon (B), the bride.
How to study this lesson 4 steps
- Read the situation under the title. It says who is talking and how they know each other, which decides how politely they speak.
- 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.
- 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.
- 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.

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.

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

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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

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.

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.

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

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.

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.

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!
