Day 88: YouTube Repair Made It Worse
At Jaemin's place, his friend Seungwoo (B) drops by to see the game console Jaemin (A) tried to fix himself.
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.
Dialogue
Audio recordings are on the way. For now, each lesson is the dialogue with its English translation.

Don't even ask. I opened it up following a video, and now it won't even turn on.

Of course. I did what the video said: took out the screws, cleaned out the dust and closed it up again. But there was one screw left over.

Don't. If you break it any more, the repair bill will just go up. Let's just take it to a repair centre.

Be honest. If you hide it, you'll just make it harder for the repair guy.
