   A 수빈아, 너 요즘 주말마다 부엌에서 뭘 그렇게 굽니? 온 집에 고소한 냄새가 나더라.

   Subina, neo yojeum jumalmada bueokeseo mwol geureoke gumni? On jibe gosohan naemsaega nadeora.

   Subin, what have you been baking in the kitchen every weekend? The whole flat smells lovely and toasty.

   B 아, 그거... 화내지 말고 끝까지 들어 줘. 사실 작년부터 강아지 간식을 만들어서 인터넷으로 팔았거든.

   A, geugeo... hwanaeji malgo kkeutkkaji deureo jwo. Sasil jangnyeonbuteo gangaji gansigeul mandeureoseo inteoneseuro paratgeodeun.

   Oh, that... Don't get mad, just hear me out. Actually, since last year I've been making dog treats and selling them online.

   Line 2
3. 3

   A 강아지 간식? 회사 다니면서 그걸 언제 다 했어?

   Gangaji gansik? Hoesa danimyeonseo geugeol eonje da haesseo?

   Dog treats? When did you find the time, with your job?

   B 주말에만 했어. 벌써 단골도 삼백 명쯤 돼. 이제 제대로 사업으로 해 보려고.

   Jumareman haesseo. Beolsseo dangoldo sambaek myeongjjeum dwae. Ije jedaero saeobeuro hae boryeogo.

   Only at weekends. I've already got about three hundred regulars. Now I want to turn it into a proper business.

   Line 4
5. 5

   A 네가 정말 하고 싶다면 엄마는 반대 안 해. 엄마가 모아 둔 돈 있잖아. 그거 투자할게.

   Nega jeongmal hago sipdamyeon eommaneun bandae an hae. Eommaga moa dun don itjana. Geugeo tujahalge.

   If you really want to do this, I won't stand in your way. You know the money I've put aside? I'll invest it.

   Line 5
6. 6

   B 뭐? 엄마 노후 자금을? 그건 절대 안 돼.

   Mwo? Eomma nohu jageumeul? Geugeon jeoldae an dwae.

   What? Your retirement savings? Absolutely not.

   Line 6
7. 7

   A 왜 안 돼? 은행에 넣어 둬도 이자가 얼마 안 나오는데.

   Wae an dwae? Eunhaenge neoeo dwodo ijaga eolma an naoneunde.

   Why not? Sitting in the bank, it hardly earns any interest.

   Line 7
8. 8

   B 엄마, 만약 회사가 망한다면 그 돈은 한 푼도 못 돌려받아. 투자는 원래 그런 거야.

   Eomma, manyak hoesaga manghandamyeon geu doneun han pundo mot dollyeobada. Tujaneun wollae geureon geoya.

   Mom, if the company goes under, you won't get a single won of it back. That's how investing works.

   Line 8

   A 왜 벌써 망할 생각부터 해? 시작도 안 했는데.

   Wae beolsseo manghal saenggakbuteo hae? Sijakdo an haenneunde.

   Why are you already thinking about failing? You haven't even started.

   Line 9
10. 10

    B 사장으로서 그런 경우도 생각해야지. 그리고 딸로서는 엄마 돈을 잃는 게 제일 무서워.

    Sajangeuroseo geureon gyeongudo saenggakaeyaji. Geurigo ttalloseoneun eomma doneul illeun ge jeil museowo.

    As the boss, I have to think about that too. And as your daughter, losing your money is what scares me most.

    Line 10
11. 11

    A 그럼 엄마도 투자자로서 말할게. 다 잃어도 괜찮은 만큼만 넣을게.

    Geureom eommado tujajaroseo malhalge. Da ireodo gwaenchaneun mankeumman neoeulge.

    Then let me speak as an investor too. I'll only put in as much as I can afford to lose.

    B 얼마 생각하는데?

    A 천만 원. 그 정도는 없어도 사는 데 문제없어. 그리고 너 모르지? 초코가 네 간식 벌써 다 먹어 봤다.

    Cheonman won. Geu jeongdoneun eopseodo saneun de munjeeopseo. Geurigo neo moreuji? Chokoga ne gansik beolsseo da meogeo bwatda.

    Ten million won. I can live without that much. And here's something you don't know: Choco's already tried all your treats.

    Line 13

    B 뭐? 어쩐지 요즘 간식이 자꾸 모자라더라!

    Mwo? Eojjeonji yojeum gansigi jakku mojaradeora!

    What? No wonder the treats kept running short!
