   A 할머니, 드릴 말씀이 있어요. 회사 근처 오피스텔로 이사하기로 했어요. 계약도 했고요.

   Halmeoni, deuril malsseumi isseoyo. Hoesa geuncheo opiseutello isahagiro haesseoyo. Gyeyakdo haetgoyo.

   Grandma, I have something to tell you. I've decided to move into an officetel near my office. I've already signed the contract.

   B 뭐? 이사? 할미랑 잘 살다가 갑자기 왜? 할미가 서운하게 했니?

   Mwo? Isa? Halmirang jal saldaga gapjagi wae? Halmiga seounhage haenni?

   What? Move? We've been getting on so well, so why all of a sudden? Did I do something to upset you?

   Line 2
3. 3

   A 출퇴근이 너무 힘들어서요. 왕복 세 시간이나 걸리고 야근도 많고 해서요.

   Chultoegeuni neomu himdeureoseoyo. Wangbok se siganina geolligo yageundo manko haeseoyo.

   The commute is just too hard. It takes three hours there and back, and I've been working late a lot and all.

   Line 3
4. 4

   B 그래, 새벽마다 나가는 거 보면 할미도 마음이 아팠어. 근데 오피스텔은 비싸지 않니?

   Geurae, saebyeongmada naganeun geo bomyeon halmido maeumi apasseo. Geunde opiseutereun bissaji anni?

   I know. It hurt me too, seeing you leave before dawn every day. But aren't officetels expensive?

   Line 4
5. 5

   A 월세가 60만 원이에요. 좀 부담스럽긴 한데 회사까지 걸어서 10분이면 가요.

   Wolsega 60man wonieyo. Jom budamseureopgin hande hoesakkaji georeoseo 10bunimyeon gayo.

   The rent is 600,000 won a month. It's a bit of a stretch, but it's only a ten-minute walk to work.

   Line 5
6. 6

   B 60만 원? 아이고, 매달 그 돈이 나가는 게 아깝네. 그럼 살림은 뭘 가져갈 거니?

   60man won? Aigo, maedal geu doni naganeun ge akkamne. Geureom sallimeun mwol gajyeogal geoni?

   600,000? Goodness, what a waste to pay that every month. So what are you taking with you for the place?

   Line 6
7. 7

   A 오피스텔에 냉장고랑 세탁기도 다 있고 해서 짐은 옷이랑 이불 정도예요.

   Opiseutere naengjanggorang setakgido da itgo haeseo jimeun osirang ibul jeongdoyeyo.

   The officetel has a fridge and a washing machine and all, so it's pretty much just clothes and bedding.

   Line 7
8. 8

   B 밥솥은? 밥은 해 먹어야 될 거 아니니. 할미가 쓰던 거나마 가져가라.

   Bapsoteun? Babeun hae meogeoya doel geo anini. Halmiga sseudeon geonama gajyeogara.

   What about a rice cooker? You've got to cook rice, haven't you? Take mine, old as it is.

   Line 8
9. 9

   A 할머니 밥솥은 할머니도 쓰셔야 하잖아요. 저는 즉석밥 사 먹으면 돼요.

   Halmeoni bapsoteun halmeonido sseusyeoya hajanayo. Jeoneun jeukseokbap sa meogeumyeon dwaeyo.

   But you need your rice cooker, Grandma. I'll just buy instant rice.

   Line 9
10. 10

    B 매일 사 먹으면 그게 다 돈이다. 좁은 방이나마 밥 냄새는 나야 사람 사는 집이지.

    Maeil sa meogeumyeon geuge da donida. Jobeun banginama bap naemsaeneun naya saram saneun jibiji.

    Buying it every day adds up. Small as the place is, it needs the smell of rice cooking to feel like a home.

    Line 10
11. 11

    A 할머니도 참... 알았어요. 밥솥은 가져갈게요.

    Halmeonido cham... arasseoyo. Bapsoteun gajyeogalgeyo.

    Oh, Grandma... Okay. I'll take the rice cooker.

    Line 11
12. 12

    B 그래. 그리고 할미도 한 달에 한 번은 가서 자고 올 거다. 잘 데는 있니?

    Geurae. Geurigo halmido han dare han beoneun gaseo jago ol geoda. Jal deneun inni?

    Good. And your grandma's coming to stay the night once a month. Is there room for me to sleep?

    Line 12
13. 13

    A 하하, 그럼요. 할머니 오시는 날은 침대가 할머니 거예요. 저는 바닥에서 자면 돼요.

    Haha, geureomyo. Halmeoni osineun nareun chimdaega halmeoni geoyeyo. Jeoneun badageseo jamyeon dwaeyo.

    Ha ha, of course. When you come, the bed's yours. I'll sleep on the floor.
