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.

B 손님, 괜찮으세요? 공이 계속 옆으로 가네요.

Sonnim, gwaenchaneuseyo? Gongi gyesok yeopeuro ganeyo.

Are you all right, sir? The ball keeps going off to the side.
A 네... 처음 쳐 보는데 어렵네요.

Ne... cheoeum chyeo boneunde eoryeomneyo.

Yes... It's my first time, and it's hard.
B 그 채가 좀 무겁지요? 가벼운 채가 좋을 것 같아요.

Geu chaega jom mugeopjiyo? Gabyeoun chaega joeul geot gatayo.

That club's a bit heavy, isn't it? I think a lighter one would be better.
A 그런 채도 있어요?

Geureon chaedo isseoyo?

Do you have one like that?
B 네, 이 짧고 가벼운 채로 쳐 보세요.

Ne, i jjalgo gabyeoun chaero chyeo boseyo.

Yes, try hitting with this short, light one.
A 오, 훨씬 편하네요. 그런데 아직 잘 안 맞아요.

O, hwolssin pyeonhaneyo. Geureonde ajik jal an majayo.

Oh, that's much easier. But I'm still not hitting it well.
B 그럼 공을 좀 더 낮게 놓아 드릴게요. 처음에는 낮은 게 쉬워요.

Geureom gongeul jom deo natge noa deurilgeyo. Cheoeumeneun najeun ge swiwoyo.

Then I'll set the ball a bit lower for you. Low is easier when you're starting out.
A 와, 이번에는 멀리 갔지요?

Wa, ibeoneneun meolli gatjiyo?

Wow, that one went far, didn't it?
B 네, 나이스 샷! 이 채가 훨씬 낫죠?

Ne, Naiseu syat! I chaega hwolssin natjyo?

Yes, nice shot! This club's much better, isn't it?
