Day 29: Not Like on the Shopping Channel

At home, Eunhee (A) finds her mother-in-law (B) unhappy with a jacket she ordered from a TV shopping channel.

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.

    Igeot jom bwayo. Homsyopingeseo san jaekisinde, saekkkari bangsongirang wanjeonhi dallayo.

    Look at this. I bought this jacket from a TV shopping channel, but the colour's completely different from what they showed.

  2. A μ–΄λ¨Έ, 정말 κ·ΈλŸ¬λ„€μš”. λ°©μ†‘μ—μ„œλŠ” μ—°ν•œ λΆ„ν™μƒ‰μ΄μ—ˆλŠ”λ° 이건 거의 λΉ¨κ°„μƒ‰μ΄μ—μš”.

    Eomeo, jeongmal geureoneyo. Bangsongeseoneun yeonhan bunhongsaegieonneunde igeon geoui ppalgansaegieyo.

    Oh my, you're right. On TV it was light pink, but this is almost red.

    Somaego danchugo mwo hana sajindaero doen ge eopseoyo.

    The sleeves, the buttons, not a single thing is like the picture.

  4. A λ°˜ν’ˆν•˜μ„Έμš”, μ–΄λ¨Έλ‹˜. νœ΄λŒ€ν° μ£Όμ‹œλ©΄ μ œκ°€ 도와 λ“œλ¦΄κ²Œμš”.

    Send it back, Mother. Give me your phone and I'll help you.

  5. B κ·Έλƒ₯ μ „ν™”λ‘œ ν•˜λŠ” 게 낫지 μ•Šμ•„μš”? λ‚˜λŠ” 앱은 잘 λͺ°λΌμ„œμš”.

    Geunyang jeonhwaro haneun ge natji anayo? Naneun aebeun jal mollaseoyo.

    Wouldn't it be easier just to call? I'm not very good with apps.

  6. A 앱이 더 λΉ¨λΌμš”. μ—¬κΈ° μ„€λͺ…λŒ€λ‘œ ν•˜μ‹œλ©΄ μ‰¬μ›Œμš”. λ¨Όμ € 'λ°˜ν’ˆ μ‹ μ²­' λˆ„λ₯΄μ„Έμš”.

    Aebi deo ppallayo. Yeogi seolmyeongdaero hasimyeon swiwoyo. Meonjeo 'banpum sincheong' nureuseyo.

    The app's quicker. If you follow the instructions here, it's easy. First, tap 'Request a return'.

  7. B λˆŒλ €μ–΄μš”. 이제 이유λ₯Ό 골라야 λ˜λ„€μš”. 뭐둜 ν•΄μš”?

    Nulleosseoyo. Ije iyureul gollaya doeneyo. Mworo haeyo?

    Done. Now I have to choose a reason. Which one?

    'Sangpumi seolmyeonggwa dallayo'reul goreuseyo. Geureom baesongbido muryoyeyo.

    Choose 'Item doesn't match the description'. Then the postage is free, too.

  9. B μ•„, κ·Έλ ‡κ΅°μš”. 우리 며느리 λ§λŒ€λ‘œ ν•˜λ‹ˆκΉŒ 금방 λλ‚˜λ„€μš”.

    A, geureokunyo. Uri myeoneuri maldaero hanikka geumbang kkeunnaneyo.

    Oh, I see. I did just what my daughter-in-law said, and it's done already.

  10. A 내일 택배 κΈ°μ‚¬λ‹˜μ΄ κ°€μ§€λŸ¬ μ˜€μ‹€ κ±°μ˜ˆμš”. μƒμžλŠ” μ œκ°€ μ€€λΉ„ν•΄ λ“œλ¦΄κ²Œμš”.
