   A 엄마, 이번 방학에 나 머리 분홍색으로 염색해도 돼?

   Eomma, ibeon banghage na meori bunhongsaegeuro yeomsaekaedo dwae?

   Mom, can I dye my hair pink this winter break?

   B 분홍색? 갑자기 웬 분홍색이야? 색깔이 너무 튀잖아.

   Bunhongsaek? Gapjagi wen bunhongsaegiya? Saekkkari neomu twijana.

   Pink? Where did that come from? That colour's so loud.

   A 반 애들 절반은 방학 때 염색한대. 나도 한 번쯤 해 보고 싶어.

   Ban aedeul jeolbaneun banghak ttae yeomsaekandae. Nado han beonjjeum hae bogo sipeo.

   Half the kids in my class are dyeing their hair over the break. I want to try it just once too.

4. 4

   B 엄마 때만 같아도 염색은 상상도 못 했어. 머리를 귀밑 3센티로 자르고 다녀야 했다니까.

   Eomma ttaeman gatado yeomsaegeun sangsangdo mot haesseo. Meorireul gwimit 3sentiro jareugo danyeoya haetdanikka.

   Back in my day, dyeing your hair would've been unthinkable. We had to keep our hair cut three centimetres below the ears.

   Line 4
5. 5

   A 그건 옛날이잖아. 요즘은 학교에 따라 규칙이 다 달라. 우리 학교는 방학 때는 괜찮아.

   Geugeon yennarijana. Yojeumeun hakgyoe ttara gyuchigi da dalla. Uri hakgyoneun banghak ttaeneun gwaenchana.

   That was ages ago. These days the rules depend on the school. At my school, it's fine during the break.

6. 6

   B 확실해? 나중에 선생님이 뭐라고 하시면 어떡해?

   Hwaksilhae? Najunge seonsaengnimi mworago hasimyeon eotteokae?

   Are you sure? What if your teacher says something later?

   Line 6
7. 7

   A 학교 규칙을 찾아봤는데, 개학 전까지만 원래 색으로 돌려놓으면 된대.

   Hakgyo gyuchigeul chajabwanneunde, gaehak jeonkkajiman wollae saegeuro dollyeonoeumyeon doendae.

   I looked up the school rules, and it just has to be back to my natural colour before school starts.

   Line 7
8. 8

   B 그럼 개학 전에는 다시 까맣게 해야지. 그건 약속할 수 있어?

   Geureom gaehak jeoneneun dasi kkamake haeyaji. Geugeon yaksokal su isseo?

   Then you'll have to dye it black again before school starts. Can you promise that?

   Line 8
9. 9

   A 당연하지. 그리고 염색은 내 용돈으로 할게.

   Dangyeonhaji. Geurigo yeomsaegeun nae yongdoneuro halge.

   Of course. And I'll pay for the dye with my own pocket money.

   Line 9
10. 10

    B 분홍색이 나오려면 탈색부터 해야 할 텐데, 머리 상하는 건 생각했어?

    Bunhongsaegi naoryeomyeon talsaekbuteo haeya hal tende, meori sanghaneun geon saenggakaesseo?

    To get pink, you'd have to bleach it first. Have you thought about the damage?

    Line 10

    A 미용실 언니가 클리닉을 같이 받으면 괜찮대.

    Miyongsil eonniga keullinigeul gachi badeumyeon gwaenchantae.

    The hairdresser said it'll be fine if I get a hair treatment at the same time.

    Line 11

    B 벌써 미용실까지 다녀왔어? 준비 다 해 놓고 허락받으러 왔구나.

    Beolsseo miyongsilkkaji danyeowasseo? Junbi da hae noko heorakbadeureo watguna.

    You've already been to the salon? So you had it all planned before you came to ask me.

    A 헤헤, 들켰다. 엄마, 딱 한 번만. 응?

    Hehe, deulkyeotda. Eomma, ttak han beonman. Eung?

    Hehe, busted. Mom, just this once. Please?

    Line 13
14. 14

    B 좋아. 대신 한 달만이다. 그리고 엄마가 사진은 꼭 찍어 줄 거야.

    Joa. Daesin han dalmanida. Geurigo eommaga sajineun kkok jjigeo jul geoya.

    Fine. But only for a month. And I'm definitely taking pictures of you.

    B 엄마도 네 나이 때는 딱 한 번만 머리 색을 바꿔 보는 게 소원이었어. 예쁘게 하고 와.

    Eommado ne nai ttaeneun ttak han beonman meori saegeul bakkwo boneun ge sowonieosseo. Yeppeuge hago wa.

    When I was your age, all I wished for was to change my hair colour just once. Go and make it look pretty.
