1. 1

   A 커피 드실래요? 자판기 커피인데, 재판 중에 마시니까 괜히 엄숙한 맛이 나네요.

   Keopi deusillaeyo? Japangi keopiinde, jaepan junge masinikka gwaenhi eomsukan masi naneyo.

   Would you like a coffee? It's only from the vending machine, but drinking it in the middle of a trial somehow makes it taste solemn.

   Line 1
2. 2

   B 감사합니다. 저는 아직도 실감이 안 나요. 제가 배심원이 되리라고는 생각도 못 했어요.

   Gamsahamnida. Jeoneun ajikdo silgami an nayo. Jega baesimwoni doeriragoneun saenggakdo mot haesseoyo.

   Thank you. It still doesn't feel real. I never imagined I'd end up on a jury.

   Line 2
3. 3

   A 저도요. 우편으로 통지서 왔을 때 무슨 과태료 고지서인 줄 알았어요. 근데 아까 그 친구 증언 말이에요, 좀 이상하지 않았어요?

   Jeodoyo. Upyeoneuro tongjiseo wasseul ttae museun gwataeryo gojiseoin jul arasseoyo. Geunde akka geu chingu jeungeon marieyo, jom isanghaji anasseoyo?

   Me neither. When the summons came in the post, I thought it was some kind of fine. But that friend's testimony earlier, didn't it seem a bit off to you?

   Line 3
4. 4

   B 알리바이요? 그 시간에 둘이 피시방에 같이 있었다는 거요? 저는 오히려 구체적이라서 믿음이 가던데요.

   Allibaiyo? Geu sigane duri pisibange gachi isseotdaneun geoyo? Jeoneun ohiryeo guchejeogiraseo mideumi gadeondeyo.

   The alibi? That the two of them were together at an internet café at the time? I actually found it believable, because it was so specific.

   Line 4
5. 5

   A 구체적인 게 문제예요. 일 년 전 일인데 몇 시 몇 분까지 기억한다는 게, 저는 외운 것처럼 들렸거든요.

   Guchejeogin ge munjeyeyo. Il nyeon jeon irinde myeot si myeot bunkkaji gieokandaneun ge, jeoneun oeun geotcheoreom deullyeotgeodeunyo.

   The specific part is the problem. Remembering the exact minute of something from a year ago sounded memorised to me.

   Line 5
6. 6

   B 그건 피시방 결제 기록을 보고 기억을 되살렸다고 했잖아요. 오히려 그래서 더...

   Geugeon pisibang gyeolje girogeul bogo gieogeul doesallyeotdago haetjanayo. Ohiryeo geuraeseo deo...

   He said he refreshed his memory from the café's payment records. If anything, that makes it more...

   Line 6
7. 7

   A 아, 잠깐만요. 우리 이거 지금 얘기해도 되는 거예요? 판사님이 평의 전에는 사건 얘기를 하지 말라던가요?

   A, jamkkanmanyo. Uri igeo jigeum yaegihaedo doeneun geoyeyo? Pansanimi pyeongui jeoneneun sageon yaegireul haji malladeongayo?

   Oh, hang on. Are we even allowed to talk about this now? Did the judge tell us not to discuss the case before deliberation?

   Line 7
8. 8

   B 음, 맞아요. 평의실에 다 모이기 전에는 서로 의견을 나누지 말라고 하셨어요. 우리 방금 딱 그걸 했네요.

   Eum, majayo. Pyeonguisire da moigi jeoneneun seoro uigyeoneul nanuji mallago hasyeosseoyo. Uri banggeum ttak geugeol haenneyo.

   Hm, yes, he did. He said not to share opinions until we're all together in the deliberation room. And that's exactly what we just did.

   Line 8
9. 9

   A 큰일 날 뻔했네요. 그럼 사건 얘기는 멈추고, 판사님이 뭐라고 하셨는지만 다시 정리해 봐요. 그건 괜찮겠죠?

   Keunil nal ppeonhaenneyo. Geureom sageon yaegineun meomchugo, pansanimi mworago hasyeonneunjiman dasi jeongnihae bwayo. Geugeon gwaenchanketjyo?

   That was close. Then let's stop talking about the case and just go over what the judge told us. That should be fine, right?

   Line 9
10. 10

    B 네, 그건 설명 들은 거니까요. 첫째, 법정에서 나온 증거로만 판단하라고 하셨어요. 뉴스나 인터넷은 보지 말고요.

    Ne, geugeon seolmyeong deureun geonikkayo. Cheotjjae, beopjeongeseo naon jeunggeoroman pandanharago hasyeosseoyo. Nyuseuna inteoneseun boji malgoyo.

    Yes, those are just the instructions we were given. First, he said to judge only on the evidence presented in court. And not to look at the news or the internet.

    Line 10
11. 11

    A 둘째, 입증은 검사가 하는 거고, 피고인이 무죄를 증명할 필요는 없다는 거. 맞죠?

    Duljjae, ipjeungeun geomsaga haneun geogo, pigoini mujoereul jeungmyeonghal piryoneun eopdaneun geo. Matjyo?

    Second, the prosecution has to prove it, and the defendant doesn't have to prove he's innocent. Right?

    Line 11
12. 12

    B 맞아요. 그리고 합리적인 의심이 남으면 유죄로 판단하면 안 된다고 하셨어요. 그 말이 제일 무겁게 들리더라고요.

    Majayo. Geurigo hamnijeogin uisimi nameumyeon yujoero pandanhamyeon an doendago hasyeosseoyo. Geu mari jeil mugeopge deullideoragoyo.

    Right. And he said that if a reasonable doubt remains, we mustn't find him guilty. That one felt the heaviest.

    Line 12
13. 13

    A 평결은요? 무조건 만장일치로 해야 한다던가... 제 기억이 맞나요?

    Pyeonggyeoreunyo? Mujogeon manjangilchiro haeya handadeonga... je gieogi mannayo?

    What about the verdict? It has to be unanimous no matter what, or something like that... Am I remembering right?

    Line 13
14. 14

    B 반은 맞아요. 먼저 만장일치를 목표로 하고, 안 되면 판사님 의견을 들은 다음에 다수결로 하라고 하셨어요.

    Baneun majayo. Meonjeo manjangilchireul mokpyoro hago, an doemyeon pansanim uigyeoneul deureun daeume dasugyeollo harago hasyeosseoyo.

    Half right. We aim for a unanimous verdict first, and if we can't reach one, we hear the judge's opinion and then decide by majority.

    Line 14
15. 15

    A 역시 메모를 꼼꼼히 하셨네요. 저는 듣느라 바빠서 반은 놓쳤어요.

    Yeoksi memoreul kkomkkomhi hasyeonneyo. Jeoneun deunneura bappaseo baneun notchyeosseoyo.

    You took careful notes, I see. I was so busy listening I missed half of it.

    Line 15
16. 16

    B 제가 원래 회사에서 회의록 담당이라서요. 근데 이런 건 괜찮죠? 사건 얘기 말고, 판단하는 방법에 대한 얘기요.

    Jega wollae hoesaeseo hoeuirok damdangiraseoyo. Geunde ireon geon gwaenchanchyo? Sageon yaegi malgo, pandanhaneun bangbeobe daehan yaegiyo.

    I'm the one who takes the minutes at work. But this kind of thing is okay, isn't it? Not the case itself, but how to go about judging it.

    Line 16
17. 17

    A 일반적인 얘기면 괜찮을 것 같아요. 예를 들어 제대로 판단을 내리자면, 증언을 들은 인상보다 기록이랑 맞는지를 먼저 봐야 하잖아요.

    Ilbanjeogin yaegimyeon gwaenchaneul geot gatayo. Yereul deureo jedaero pandaneul naerijamyeon, jeungeoneul deureun insangboda girogirang manneunjireul meonjeo bwaya hajanayo.

    General talk should be fine. For example, to reach a sound judgment, you have to check whether testimony matches the records before going on the impression it made, right?

    Line 17
18. 18

    B 동의해요. 그리고 제 느낌이 맞다고 확신하자면, 반대쪽 해석도 끝까지 들어 봐야 하고요. 저, 아까 증언을 너무 섣불리 믿었던 것 같아요.

    Donguihaeyo. Geurigo je neukkimi matdago hwaksinhajamyeon, bandaejjok haeseokdo kkeutkkaji deureo bwaya hagoyo. Jeo, akka jeungeoneul neomu seotbulli mideotdeon geot gatayo.

    Agreed. And before I can be sure my hunch is right, I have to hear the other interpretation all the way through. I think I was too quick to believe that testimony earlier.

    Line 18
19. 19

    A 저도요. 아까는 제 의심을 벌써 결론처럼 말했어요. 평의실에서는 질문으로 꺼내 보고, 다른 분들 얘기도 경청할게요.

    Jeodoyo. Akkaneun je uisimeul beolsseo gyeolloncheoreom malhaesseoyo. Pyeonguisireseoneun jilmuneuro kkeonae bogo, dareun bundeul yaegido gyeongcheonghalgeyo.

    Me too. Earlier I talked about my doubt as if it were already a conclusion. In the deliberation room, I'll raise it as a question and really listen to what the others say.

    Line 19
20. 20

    B 좋네요. 서로 반대 의견이 나와도, 싸우자는 게 아니라 확인하자는 거라고 생각하기로 해요.

    Jonneyo. Seoro bandae uigyeoni nawado, ssaujaneun ge anira hwaginhajaneun georago saenggakagiro haeyo.

    Good. Even if we end up disagreeing, let's remember it's about checking, not fighting.

    Line 20
21. 21

    A 그래요. 도둑을 잡는 것도 중요하지만, 억울한 사람을 만들지 않는 것도 우리 일이니까요.

    Geuraeyo. Dodugeul jamneun geotdo jungyohajiman, eogulhan sarameul mandeulji anneun geotdo uri irinikkayo.

    Agreed. Catching a thief matters, but so does not convicting an innocent man. That's our job too.

    Line 21
22. 22

    B 와, 그 말은 평의실 가서 꼭 하세요. 다들 고개를 끄덕이실 거예요.

    Wa, geu mareun pyeonguisil gaseo kkok haseyo. Dadeul gogaereul kkeudeogisil geoyeyo.

    Wow, be sure to say that in the deliberation room. Everyone will be nodding.

    Line 22
23. 23

    A 부담 주지 마세요. 저 긴장해서 벌써 커피를 세 잔째 마시고 있어요.

    Budam juji maseyo. Jeo ginjanghaeseo beolsseo keopireul se janjjae masigo isseoyo.

    Don't put pressure on me. I'm so nervous I'm already on my third coffee.

    Line 23
24. 24

    B 그럼 네 잔째는 참으세요. 평의가 몇 시간 걸릴지 모르잖아요.

    Geureom ne janjjaeneun chameuseyo. Pyeonguiga myeot sigan geollilji moreujanayo.

    Then skip the fourth. Who knows how many hours deliberation will take.

    Line 24
