1. 1

   B 어르신, 안녕하세요. 어머, 이게 다 뭐예요? 프라이팬을 이렇게 많이 버리세요?

   Eoreusin, annyeonghaseyo. Eomeo, ige da mwoyeyo? Peuraipaeneul ireoke mani beoriseyo?

   Hello, Mr. Kim. Oh my, what's all this? You're throwing out all these frying pans?

   Line 1
2. 2

   A 아, 약사 선생님. 어제 뉴스 봤어요? 코팅 프라이팬에서 미세 플라스틱이 나와서 몸에 쌓인대요.

   A, yaksa seonsaengnim. Eoje nyuseu bwasseoyo? Koting peuraipaeneseo mise peullaseutigi nawaseo mome ssaindaeyo.

   Ah, it's you. Did you see the news yesterday? They say nonstick pans release microplastics that build up in your body.

   Line 2
3. 3

   B 저도 봤어요. 그런데 그 기사 하나를 가지고 이걸 다 버리시는 거예요? 멀쩡한 것도 있는데요.

   Jeodo bwasseoyo. Geureonde geu gisa hanareul gajigo igeol da beorisineun geoyeyo? Meoljjeonghan geotdo inneundeyo.

   I saw it too. But you're throwing all this away over one article? Some of them are perfectly fine.

   Line 3
4. 4

   A 찝찝하게 쓰느니 차라리 새로 사는 게 낫지요. 건강이 먼저 아니겠어요?

   Jjipjjipage sseuneuni charari saero saneun ge natjiyo. Geongangi meonjeo anigesseoyo?

   Better to buy new ones than to keep using these and worry. Health comes first, doesn't it?

   Line 4
5. 5

   B 건강이 먼저인 건 맞죠. 그래도 기사가 무슨 연구를 가지고 썼는지는 한번 확인해 보세요. 제목은 원래 자극적으로 뽑잖아요.

   Geongangi meonjeoin geon matjyo. Geuraedo gisaga museun yeongureul gajigo sseonneunjineun hanbeon hwaginhae boseyo. Jemogeun wollae jageukjeogeuro ppopjanayo.

   Health does come first. But do check what study the article was based on. Headlines are always made to sound dramatic.

   Line 5
6. 6

   A 연구요? 나는 머리기사 제목만 봤지요. 제목이 워낙 무서워서요.

   Yeonguyo? Naneun meorigisa jemongman bwatjiyo. Jemogi wonak museowoseoyo.

   The study? I only saw the headline. It was so frightening.

   Line 6
7. 7

   B 제가 찾아볼게요. ...여기 있네요. 이 연구는 코팅이 긁혀서 손상된 팬을 가지고 실험한 거래요. 흠집 하나에서 미세 플라스틱 조각이 수천 개 나왔대요.

   Jega chajabolgeyo. ...Yeogi inneyo. I yeonguneun kotingi geulkyeoseo sonsangdoen paeneul gajigo silheomhan georaeyo. Heumjip hanaeseo mise peullaseutik jogagi sucheon gae nawatdaeyo.

   Let me look it up. ...Here it is. The study tested pans whose coating was scratched and damaged. Thousands of microplastic particles came from a single scratch.

   Line 7
8. 8

   A 그것 봐요, 수천 개라잖아요.

   Geugeot bwayo, sucheon gaerajanayo.

   There you go, thousands!

   Line 8
9. 9

   B 네, 그런데 흠집이 난 팬 이야기예요. 코팅이 멀쩡한 팬은 조건이 다르고요. 그리고 우리가 실제로 얼마나 섭취하고, 그게 얼마나 유해한지는 아직 연구가 부족하대요.

   Ne, geureonde heumjibi nan paen iyagiyeyo. Kotingi meoljjeonghan paeneun jogeoni dareugoyo. Geurigo uriga siljero eolmana seopchwihago, geuge eolmana yuhaehanjineun ajik yeonguga bujokadaeyo.

   Yes, but that's about scratched pans. Pans with an intact coating are a different story. And there isn't enough research yet on how much of it we actually take in, or how harmful it is.

   Line 9
10. 10

    A 그럼 기자가 제목을 부풀린 거네요.

    Geureom gijaga jemogeul bupullin geoneyo.

    So the reporter blew the headline out of proportion.

    Line 10
11. 11

    B 부풀렸다기보다는 제일 무서운 부분만 제목에 뽑은 거죠. 연구 하나로 모든 걸 결론 내리는 건 성급해요.

    Bupullyeotdagibodaneun jeil museoun bubunman jemoge ppobeun geojyo. Yeongu hanaro modeun geol gyeollon naerineun geon seonggeupaeyo.

    It's not so much blowing it up as putting the scariest part in the headline. Drawing conclusions about everything from one study is too hasty.

    Line 11
12. 12

    A 허허, 나는 벌써 반은 버렸는데요.

    Heoheo, naneun beolsseo baneun beoryeonneundeyo.

    Well, I've already thrown out half of them.

    Line 12
13. 13

    B 괜찮아요. 이 중에서 흠집 난 건 버리시는 게 맞아요. 이것 보세요, 바닥 코팅이 다 벗겨진 채로 쓰셨네요.

    Gwaenchanayo. I jungeseo heumjip nan geon beorisineun ge majayo. Igeot boseyo, badak kotingi da beotgyeojin chaero sseusyeonneyo.

    That's all right. The scratched ones should go. Look at this one, you've been using it with the coating completely worn off the bottom.

    Line 13
14. 14

    A 그건 십 년 넘게 쓴 거예요. 아까워서 못 버렸지요.

    Geugeon sip nyeon neomge sseun geoyeyo. Akkawoseo mot beoryeotjiyo.

    I've had that one over ten years. I couldn't bring myself to throw it away.

    Line 14
15. 15

    B 그런 건 진작 바꾸셨어야 해요. 코팅 팬은 보통 일이 년 쓰면 교체하는 게 좋대요. 그리고 쇠수세미로 닦으시면 안 되고요.

    Geureon geon jinjak bakkusyeosseoya haeyo. Koting paeneun botong iri nyeon sseumyeon gyochehaneun ge jotaeyo. Geurigo soesusemiro dakkeusimyeon an doegoyo.

    You should have replaced that long ago. They say nonstick pans are best replaced every year or two. And you shouldn't scrub them with steel wool.

    Line 15
16. 16

    A 쇠수세미로 박박 닦았는데요. 그럼 이 멀쩡한 두 개는 다시 들고 들어가야겠네요.

    Soesusemiro bakbak dakkanneundeyo. Geureom i meoljjeonghan du gaeneun dasi deulgo deureogayagenneyo.

    I've been scrubbing them hard with steel wool. Then I'd better take these two good ones back inside.

    Line 16
17. 17

    B 네, 대신 뜨거운 채로 찬물에 담그지 마시고, 나무 뒤집개를 쓰세요. 그런 요령만 알아도 훨씬 오래 써요.

    Ne, daesin tteugeoun chaero chanmure damgeuji masigo, namu dwijipgaereul sseuseyo. Geureon yoryeongman arado hwolssin orae sseoyo.

    Yes, but don't put them in cold water while they're still hot, and use a wooden spatula. Just knowing tricks like that makes them last much longer.

    Line 17
18. 18

    A 약사 선생님 말을 들으니 속이 시원하네요. 다음부터는 기사 하나를 가지고 이렇게 호들갑 떨지 말아야겠어요.

    Yaksa seonsaengnim mareul deureuni sogi siwonhaneyo. Daeumbuteoneun gisa hanareul gajigo ireoke hodeulgap tteolji marayagesseoyo.

    Talking to you has really cleared things up. Next time I won't make such a fuss over one article.

    Line 18
19. 19

    B 호들갑이라니요. 건강 챙기시는 건 좋은 거예요. 궁금한 건 언제든지 약국에 오셔서 물어보세요.

    Hodeulgabiraniyo. Geongang chaenggisineun geon joeun geoyeyo. Gunggeumhan geon eonjedeunji yakguge osyeoseo mureoboseyo.

    It's not a fuss at all. Looking after your health is a good thing. Come by the pharmacy any time you have a question.
