Day 15: My Brother Slept After Suneung

In the office kitchen, Taemin (A) tells his colleague Yujin (B) about his younger brother, who sat the college entrance exam yesterday.

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.

Dialogue

Audio recordings are on the way. For now, each lesson is the dialogue with its English translation.

    Taemin ssi, eoje dongsaeng suneung bwatjyo? Jal bwasseoyo?

    Taemin, your brother took the Suneung yesterday, right? How did he do?

    Moreugesseoyo. Siheom bogo naseo jibe waseo jigeumkkaji gyesok jago isseoyo.

    No idea. He came home after the exam and he's been asleep ever since.

  3. B μ§€κΈˆκΉŒμ§€μš”? κ·Έλ™μ•ˆ 많이 ν”Όκ³€ν–ˆκ² λ„€μš”.

    Jigeumkkajiyo? Geudongan mani pigonhaetgenneyo.

    Still? He must have been exhausted after all that.

  4. A λ„€, μ μˆ˜λŠ” μΌμ–΄λ‚˜κ³  λ‚˜μ„œ λ¬Όμ–΄λ³΄λ €κ³ μš”.

    Ne, jeomsuneun ireonago naseo mureoboryeogoyo.

    Yeah. I'm going to ask about his score once he wakes up.

  5. B 저도 수λŠ₯ λλ‚˜κ³  λ‚˜μ„œ 이틀 λ™μ•ˆ μž€μ—ˆμ–΄μš”.

    Jeodo suneung kkeunnago naseo iteul dongan jasseosseoyo.

    I slept for two days after my Suneung, too.

  6. A μ €λŠ” λ°˜λŒ€μ˜€μ–΄μš”. μ‹œν—˜ λλ‚˜κ³  λ‚˜λ‹ˆκΉŒ μ΄μƒν•˜κ²Œ 잠이 μ•ˆ μ™”μ–΄μš”.

    Jeoneun bandaeyeosseoyo. Siheom kkeunnago nanikka isanghage jami an wasseoyo.

    I was the opposite. Once the exam was over, for some reason I couldn't sleep.

  7. B μ™œμš”? λ„ˆλ¬΄ κΈ΄μž₯ν•΄μ„œμš”?

    Waeyo? Neomu ginjanghaeseoyo?

    Why? Too tense?

  8. A 그것도 있고, 마음이 μ’€ ν—ˆμ „ν–ˆμ–΄μš”. 일 λ…„ λ™μ•ˆ 맀일 κ³΅λΆ€ν–ˆλŠ”λ° κ°‘μžκΈ° ν•  게 μ—†μ—ˆκ±°λ“ μš”.

    Geugeotdo itgo, maeumi jom heojeonhaesseoyo. Il nyeon dongan maeil gongbuhaenneunde gapjagi hal ge eopseotgeodeunyo.

    That too, and I felt kind of empty. I'd studied every day for a year, and suddenly there was nothing to do.

  9. B κ·Έ 마음 μ•Œμ•„μš”. μ €λŠ” λλ‚˜κ³  λ‚˜μ„œ 제일 λ¨Όμ € 머리λ₯Ό λ…Έλž—κ²Œ μ—Όμƒ‰ν–ˆμ—ˆμ–΄μš”. μ—„λ§ˆν•œν…Œ ν˜Όλ‚¬μ£ .

    Geu maeum arayo. Jeoneun kkeunnago naseo jeil meonjeo meorireul norake yeomsaekaesseosseoyo. Eommahante honnatjyo.

    I know that feeling. The first thing I did when it was over was dye my hair blonde. My mom really told me off.

  10. A ν•˜ν•˜. 우리 동생은 μΌμ–΄λ‚˜κ³  λ‚˜μ„œ 제일 λ¨Όμ € 뭘 ν• κΉŒμš”? μ•„λ§ˆ κ²Œμž„μ„ μ‹€μ»· ν•˜κ² μ£ .

    Haha. Uri dongsaengeun ireonago naseo jeil meonjeo mwol halkkayo? Ama geimeul silkeot hagetjyo.

    Ha ha. I wonder what my brother will do first when he wakes up. Probably play games to his heart's content.
