Day 101: Strawberry Bingsu Sold Out

At a busy dessert café, Haeun (A), a customer who has hurried over after seeing a post online, talks to Sohee (B), the barista at the counter.

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.

B 어서 오세요. 주문 도와드릴게요.

Eoseo oseyo. Jumun dowadeurilgeyo.

Welcome. What can I get you?
A 새로 나온 딸기 빙수 하나 주세요. 인스타에서 사진 보자마자 왔어요.

Saero naon ttalgi bingsu hana juseyo. Inseutaeseo sajin bojamaja wasseoyo.

One of the new strawberry bingsu, please. I came as soon as I saw the photo on Instagram.
B 아, 정말 죄송해요. 딸기 빙수는 오늘 다 팔렸어요.

A, jeongmal joesonghaeyo. Ttalgi bingsuneun oneul da pallyeosseoyo.

Oh, I'm so sorry. The strawberry bingsu is sold out for today.
A 벌써요? 아직 두 시밖에 안 됐는데요.

Beolsseoyo? Ajik du sibakke an dwaenneundeyo.

Already? It's only two o'clock.
B 네, 예상보다 손님이 많아서요. 문 열자마자 줄을 서셔서 한 시간 만에 다 나갔어요.

Ne, yesangboda sonnimi manaseoyo. Mun yeoljamaja jureul seosyeoseo han sigan mane da nagasseoyo.

Yes, we had far more customers than we expected. People were lining up the moment we opened, and it was gone within an hour.
A 와, 진짜 기대하고 왔는데요. 하루에 몇 개나 만드세요?

Wa, jinjja gidaehago wanneundeyo. Harue myeot gaena mandeuseyo?

Oh, and I was really looking forward to it. How many do you make a day?
B 딸기가 비싸서 서른 개만 만들어요. 드시고 싶으시면 열 시에 문 열자마자 오셔야 돼요.

Ttalgiga bissaseo seoreun gaeman mandeureoyo. Deusigo sipeusimyeon yeol sie mun yeoljamaja osyeoya dwaeyo.

Strawberries are expensive, so we only make thirty. If you want one, you'd have to come right when we open at ten.
A 아쉽네요. 그럼 오늘은 뭐가 괜찮아요?

Aswimneyo. Geureom oneureun mwoga gwaenchanayo?

What a shame. So what's good today?
B 딸기 요거트 빙수를 추천해 드릴게요. 딸기는 좀 적지만 맛은 비슷해요.

Ttalgi yogeoteu bingsureul chucheonhae deurilgeyo. Ttalgineun jom jeokjiman maseun biseutaeyo.

I'd recommend the strawberry yogurt bingsu. It has fewer strawberries, but it tastes similar.
A 좋아요, 대신 그걸로 할게요. 그리고 내일은 문 열자마자 올게요.

Joayo, daesin geugeollo halgeyo. Geurigo naeireun mun yeoljamaja olgeyo.

Okay, I'll have that instead. And tomorrow I'll be here the minute you open.
B 네, 금방 준비해 드릴게요. 드시고 나서 리뷰도 부탁드려요!

Ne, geumbang junbihae deurilgeyo. Deusigo naseo ribyudo butakdeuryeoyo!

Great, it'll be ready in a moment. And after you've had it, a review would be lovely!
