   B 팀장님, 잠깐 여쭤봐도 되겠습니까?

   Timjangnim, jamkkan yeojjwobwado doegetseumnikka?

   Ms. Han, may I ask you something?

   Line 1

   A 그럼요, 도현 씨. 뭔데요?

   Geureomyo, Dohyeon ssi. Mwondeyo?

   Of course, Dohyun. What is it?

   B 회사 게시판에 매칭 적금 안내가 올라와 있던데, 저도 가입할 수 있습니까?

   Hoesa gesipane maeching jeokgeum annaega ollawa itdeonde, jeodo gaipal su itseumnikka?

   I saw a notice about the matching savings plan on the company board. Can I sign up too?

   Line 3
4. 4

   A 물론이죠. 입사한 지 1년이 안 된 직원도 다 돼요. 근데 갑자기 왜요?

   Mullonijyo. Ipsahan ji 1nyeoni an doen jigwondo da dwaeyo. Geunde gapjagi waeyo?

   Of course. Even staff who've been here less than a year can join. But why the sudden interest?

   Line 4
5. 5

   B 월세가 계속 오르는 탓에 월급을 받아도 돈을 전혀 못 모으고 있습니다.

   Wolsega gyesok oreuneun tase wolgeubeul badado doneul jeonhyeo mot moeugo itseumnida.

   My rent keeps going up, so even with my salary, I can't save a thing.

   Line 5
6. 6

   A 요즘 월세가 정말 많이 올랐죠. 지금 얼마 내요?

   Yojeum wolsega jeongmal mani ollatjyo. Jigeum eolma naeyo?

   Rents really have shot up lately. How much are you paying?

   Line 6
7. 7

   B 작년에는 오십만 원이었는데 올해 육십오만 원이 됐습니다. 관리비까지 하면 월급의 삼분의 일이 넘습니다.

   Jangnyeoneneun osimman wonieonneunde olhae yuksiboman woni dwaetseumnida. Gwallibikkaji hamyeon wolgeubui sambunui iri neomseumnida.

   It was 500,000 won last year, and now it's 650,000. With maintenance fees, it's over a third of my salary.

   Line 7
8. 8

   A 그럼 이 제도가 딱 맞겠네요. 도현 씨가 매달 이십만 원을 넣으면 회사도 똑같이 이십만 원을 넣어 줘요.

   Geureom i jedoga ttak matgenneyo. Dohyeon ssiga maedal isimman woneul neoeumyeon hoesado ttokgachi isimman woneul neoeo jwoyo.

   Then this plan is perfect for you. You put in 200,000 won a month, and the company puts in the same 200,000.

   Line 8
9. 9

   B 회사에서 같은 금액을 더 넣어 줍니까? 그럼 두 배가 되는 거네요.

   Hoesaeseo gateun geumaegeul deo neoeo jumnikka? Geureom du baega doeneun geoneyo.

   The company adds the same amount? So it doubles?

   Line 9
10. 10

    A 네, 3년 동안 유지하면요. 중간에 깨면 회사 돈은 못 받으니까 그건 조심해야 돼요.

    Ne, 3nyeon dongan yujihamyeonyo. Junggane kkaemyeon hoesa doneun mot badeunikka geugeon josimhaeya dwaeyo.

    Yes, as long as you keep it for three years. If you cancel partway, you lose the company's share, so be careful about that.

    Line 10
11. 11

    B 3년이요... 저 같은 사람은 급하게 돈이 필요하면 깰 수밖에 없을 것 같습니다.

    3nyeoniyo... jeo gateun sarameun geupage doni piryohamyeon kkael subakke eopseul geot gatseumnida.

    Three years... For someone like me, if I suddenly needed money, I'd have no choice but to cancel it.

    Line 11
12. 12

    A 저도 신입 때 똑같은 걱정을 했어요. 그래서 비상금 통장을 따로 만들고 지출을 줄였죠.

    Jeodo sinip ttae ttokgateun geokjeongeul haesseoyo. Geuraeseo bisanggeum tongjangeul ttaro mandeulgo jichureul juryeotjyo.

    I had the exact same worry when I started. So I opened a separate emergency account and cut my spending.

    Line 12
13. 13

    B 팀장님도 신입 때 월세 사셨습니까?

    Timjangnimdo sinip ttae wolse sasyeotseumnikka?

    Were you renting too when you were new?

    Line 13
14. 14

    A 그럼요. 월급이 적은 탓에 점심은 매일 도시락이었어요. 그렇게 해서 3년 만에 처음으로 천만 원을 모았죠.

    Geureomyo. Wolgeubi jeogeun tase jeomsimeun maeil dosiragieosseoyo. Geureoke haeseo 3nyeon mane cheoeumeuro cheonman woneul moatjyo.

    Of course. My pay was so low that I brought a packed lunch every day. That's how I saved my first ten million won, in three years.

    Line 14
15. 15

    B 천만 원이요? 저도 도시락부터 시작해야겠습니다.

    Cheonman woniyo? Jeodo dosirakbuteo sijakaeyagetseumnida.

    Ten million won? I'd better start packing lunches, too.

    Line 15

    A 하하, 너무 무리하지는 말고요. 가입 신청서는 인사팀 게시판에 있으니까 오늘 바로 내요.

    Haha, neomu murihajineun malgoyo. Gaip sincheongseoneun insatim gesipane isseunikka oneul baro naeyo.

    Ha ha, don't overdo it. The application form is on the HR board, so hand it in today.
