Day 156: The Team Leader's Dinner Receipts

At the office, Haeun (B), who has just taken over her team's expense claims, pulls her coworker Seongmin (A) aside to talk about their team leader's receipts.

How to study this lesson 4 steps
  1. Read the situation under the title. It says who is talking and how they know each other, which decides how politely they speak.
  2. 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.
  3. 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.
  4. 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.

Dialogue

Audio recordings are on the way. For now, each lesson is the dialogue with its English translation.

  1. B μ„±λ―Ό 씨, 잠깐 μ‹œκ°„ λΌμš”? μ—¬κΈ°μ„œ λ§ν•˜κΈ°λŠ” μ’€ κ·Έλ ‡κ³ , νœ΄κ²Œμ‹€λ‘œ κ°€μš”.

    Seongmin ssi, jamkkan sigan dwaeyo? Yeogiseo malhagineun jom geureoko, hyugesillo gayo.

    Seongmin, do you have a minute? It's a bit awkward to talk here, let's go to the break room.

  2. A 무슨 μΌμ΄μ—μš”? ν‘œμ •μ΄ μ‹¬κ°ν•œλ°μš”.

    Museun irieyo? Pyojeongi simgakandeyo.

    What is it? You look serious.

  3. B μ œκ°€ 이번 달뢀터 νŒ€ κ²½λΉ„ 정산을 λ§‘μ•˜μž–μ•„μš”. 근데 νŒ€μž₯λ‹˜ μΉ΄λ“œ μ‚¬μš© 내역이 μ’€ μ΄μƒν•΄μš”.

    Jega ibeon dalbuteo tim gyeongbi jeongsaneul matatjanayo. Geunde timjangnim kadeu sayong naeyeogi jom isanghaeyo.

    I took over the team's expense claims this month, right? But something's off about the team leader's card statements.

  4. A μ–΄λ–€ κ²Œμš”?

    Eotteon geyo?

    How so?

  5. B 거래처 μ ‘λŒ€λΉ„λ‘œ 올라온 게 λŒ€λΆ€λΆ„ 주말 μ €λ…μ΄μ—μš”. μž₯μ†Œλ„ λ‹€ νŒ€μž₯λ‹˜ 댁 근처 κ³ κΉƒμ§‘μ΄κ³ μš”.

    Georaecheo jeopdaebiro ollaon ge daebubun jumal jeonyeogieyo. Jangsodo da timjangnim daek geuncheo gogitjibigoyo.

    Most of what's filed as client entertainment is on weekend evenings. And the places are all barbecue restaurants near his home.

  6. A 주말에 거래처λ₯Ό λ§Œλ‚  μˆ˜λ„ μžˆμ§€λ§Œ, 맀번 댁 근처라면 μ’€ μ΄μƒν•˜λ„€μš”.

    Jumare georaecheoreul mannal sudo itjiman, maebeon daek geuncheoramyeon jom isanghaneyo.

    He could be meeting clients on weekends, but if it's always near his home, that is strange.

  7. B μ§€λ‚œμ£Ό μ˜μˆ˜μ¦μ€ 사 인뢄에 어린이 μ„ΈνŠΈ λ©”λ‰΄κΉŒμ§€ μžˆμ—ˆμ–΄μš”. 거래처 μ‚¬λžŒμ΄ 아이λ₯Ό λ°λ €μ˜€μ§€λŠ” μ•Šμ•˜μ„ κ±° μ•„λ‹ˆμ—μš”.

    Jinanju yeongsujeungeun sa inbune eorini seteu menyukkaji isseosseoyo. Georaecheo sarami aireul deryeoojineun anasseul geo anieyo.

    Last week's receipt was for four people, plus a kids' set menu. I doubt a client brought their child along.

  8. A 그건 λˆ„κ°€ 봐도 κ°€μ‘± μ™Έμ‹μ΄λ„€μš”. κ·Έλž˜μ„œ κ·Έκ±Έ κ·Έλƒ₯ μ²˜λ¦¬ν–ˆμ–΄μš”?

    Geugeon nuga bwado gajok oesigineyo. Geuraeseo geugeol geunyang cheorihaesseoyo?

    Anyone can see that's a family dinner. So did you just process it?

  9. B μ²˜μŒμ—” μ—¬μ­€λ΄€μ£ . 그런데 νŒ€μž₯λ‹˜μ΄ 거래처 사μž₯λ‹˜ κ°€μ‘±μ΄λž‘ 같이 λ“œμ…¨λ‹€κΈ°μ— 더 λ”°μ§ˆ μˆ˜κ°€ μ—†μ—ˆμ–΄μš”.

    Cheoeumen yeojjwobwatjyo. Geureonde timjangnimi georaecheo sajangnim gajogirang gachi deusyeotdagie deo ttajil suga eopseosseoyo.

    At first I asked. But he said he'd eaten with a client's boss and his family, so I couldn't push any further.

  10. A ν•œλ‘ 번이면 그럴 μˆ˜λ„ 있죠. 그런데 번번이 κ·Έλ ‡λ‹€λ©΄ μ–˜κΈ°κ°€ λ‹¬λΌμš”.

    Handu beonimyeon geureol sudo itjyo. Geureonde beonbeoni geureotamyeon yaegiga dallayo.

    Once or twice, maybe. But if it happens every single time, that's a different story.

  11. B 석 달 치λ₯Ό λ‹€ μ°Ύμ•„λ΄€λŠ”λ° λΉ„μŠ·ν•œ 게 열두 κ±΄μ΄μ—μš”. ν•©μΉ˜λ©΄ λ°±μ˜€μ‹­λ§Œ 원이 λ„˜μ–΄μš”.

    Seok dal chireul da chajabwanneunde biseutan ge yeoldu geonieyo. Hapchimyeon baegosimman woni neomeoyo.

    I went through three months' worth, and there are twelve like that. Together it's over one and a half million won.

  12. A ν•˜μ€ 씨, 이건 κ·Έλƒ₯ λ„˜μ–΄κ°€λ©΄ μ•ˆ 될 것 κ°™μ•„μš”. λ‹΄λ‹Ήμžκ°€ μ•Œλ©΄μ„œ λͺ¨λ₯Έ μ²™ν•˜λ‹€κ°€λŠ” λ‚˜μ€‘μ— 감사 λ•Œ ν—ˆμœ„ 청ꡬλ₯Ό λ„μš΄ μ…ˆμ΄ 될 μˆ˜λ„ μžˆμ–΄μš”.

    Haeun ssi, igeon geunyang neomeogamyeon an doel geot gatayo. Damdangjaga almyeonseo moreun cheokadaganeun najunge gamsa ttae heowi cheonggureul doun semi doel sudo isseoyo.

    Haeun, I don't think we can let this go. If the person in charge knows and pretends not to, it could look like you helped with false claims when there's an audit.

  13. B 저도 그게 제일 λ¬΄μ„œμ›Œμš”. κ·Έλ ‡λ‹€κ³  νŒ€μž₯λ‹˜μ„ μ‹ κ³ ν•˜λŠ” 것도 λ„ˆλ¬΄ λΆ€λ‹΄μŠ€λŸ¬μ›Œμš”. κ·Έ λ’€λ‘œ νšŒμ‚¬ μƒν™œμ΄ μ–΄λ–»κ²Œ 될지 λͺ¨λ₯΄μž–μ•„μš”.

    Jeodo geuge jeil museowoyo. Geureotago timjangnimeul singohaneun geotdo neomu budamseureowoyo. Geu dwiro hoesa saenghwari eotteoke doelji moreujanayo.

    That's what scares me most. But reporting the team leader feels like such a huge step. Who knows what work would be like after that.

  14. A κ·Έ 마음 μ•Œμ•„μš”. κ·Έλ ‡λ‹€κ³  계속 λˆˆκ°μ•„ μ£Όλ‹€κ°€λŠ” 이런 일이 λ‹Ήμ—°ν•œ 게 돼 λ²„λ €μš”. λ‹€λ₯Έ νŒ€μ›λ“€λ„ κ²°κ΅­ μ•Œκ²Œ 될 κ±°κ³ μš”.

    Geu maeum arayo. Geureotago gyesok nungama judaganeun ireon iri dangyeonhan ge dwae beoryeoyo. Dareun timwondeuldo gyeolguk alge doel geogoyo.

    I know how you feel. But if we keep turning a blind eye, this kind of thing becomes normal. And the rest of the team will find out eventually.

  15. B 그럼 μ–΄λ–»κ²Œ ν•΄μ•Ό ν•΄μš”? μΈμ‚¬νŒ€μ— 직접 μ°Ύμ•„κ°€μš”?

    Geureom eotteoke haeya haeyo? Insatime jikjeop chajagayo?

    So what should we do? Go to HR directly?

  16. A 사내 κ²Œμ‹œνŒμ— 윀리 경영 읡λͺ… 제보 창ꡬ가 μžˆμ—ˆλ˜ 것 κ°™μ•„μš”. 같이 μ°Ύμ•„λ΄μš”.

    Sanae gesipane yulli gyeongyeong ingmyeong jebo changguga isseotdeon geot gatayo. Gachi chajabwayo.

    I think there's an anonymous ethics reporting channel on the company intranet. Let's look it up together.

  17. B μ—¬κΈ° μžˆλ„€μš”. '제보자의 신원은 μ² μ €νžˆ 보호되며, 제보λ₯Ό 이유둜 λΆˆμ΄μ΅μ„ μ£Όμ§€ μ•ŠμŠ΅λ‹ˆλ‹€.' μ΄λ ‡κ²Œ μ“°μ—¬ μžˆμ–΄μš”.

    Yeogi inneyo. 'Jebojaui sinwoneun cheoljeohi bohodoemyeo, jeboreul iyuro buriigeul juji anseumnida.' Ireoke sseuyeo isseoyo.

    Here it is. "The identity of anyone who reports is strictly protected, and no one will be penalised for reporting." That's what it says.

  18. A μ’‹λ„€μš”. 영수증 λ‚ μ§œλž‘ κΈˆμ•‘μ„ νŒ€ μΌμ •ν‘œλž‘ 같이 μ •λ¦¬ν•΄μ„œ 올리면 λΌμš”. 좔츑은 λΉΌκ³  μ‚¬μ‹€λ§Œμš”.

    Jonneyo. Yeongsujeung naljjarang geumaegeul tim iljeongpyorang gachi jeongnihaeseo ollimyeon dwaeyo. Chucheugeun ppaego sasilmanyo.

    Good. We just put the receipt dates and amounts together with the team calendar and submit them. Just the facts, no guesses.

  19. B λ§žμ•„μš”. μžμ„Έν•œ κ²½μœ„λŠ” κ°μ‚¬νŒ€μ΄ μ•Œμ•„λ³΄λŠ” 게 맞겠죠. μ œκ°€ λͺ¨λ₯΄λŠ” 사정이 μžˆμ„ μˆ˜λ„ μžˆμœΌλ‹ˆκΉŒμš”.

    Majayo. Jasehan gyeongwineun gamsatimi araboneun ge matgetjyo. Jega moreuneun sajeongi isseul sudo isseunikkayo.

    Right. It's the audit team's job to find out exactly what happened. There might be something I don't know about.

  20. A μ •λ¦¬ν•˜λŠ” κ±° μ œκ°€ λ„μšΈκ²Œμš”. 혼자 λ– μ•ˆμ§€ λ§ˆμ„Έμš”.

    Jeongnihaneun geo jega doulgeyo. Honja tteoanji maseyo.

    I'll help you put it together. Don't carry this alone.

  21. B κ³ λ§ˆμ›Œμš”, μ„±λ―Ό 씨. 였늘 ν‡΄κ·Όν•˜κ³  같이 μ •λ¦¬ν•΄μš”. 이번 μ£Ό μ˜μˆ˜μ¦μ€ 일단 처리λ₯Ό 미뀄 λ‘˜κ²Œμš”.

    Gomawoyo, Seongmin ssi. Oneul toegeunhago gachi jeongnihaeyo. Ibeon ju yeongsujeungeun ildan cheorireul mirwo dulgeyo.

    Thanks, Seongmin. Let's put it together after work today. I'll hold off on processing this week's receipts for now.
