   A 팀장님, 강변공원 공모전 초안 나왔습니다. 한번 봐 주시겠어요?

   Timjangnim, gangbyeongongwon gongmojeon choan nawatseumnida. Hanbeon bwa jusigesseoyo?

   The first draft for the riverside park competition is ready. Would you take a look?

   B 오, 민재 씨 오늘따라 자신 있어 보이네요. 어디 봅시다.

   O, Minjae ssi oneulttara jasin isseo boineyo. Eodi bopsida.

   Oh, Minjae, you look confident today. Let's have a look.

   A 입구 쪽에 주차장을 넓게 두고, 가운데에 잔디 광장을 크게 배치했습니다.

   Ipgu jjoge juchajangeul neolge dugo, gaundee jandi gwangjangeul keuge baechihaetseumnida.

   I put a large parking lot by the entrance and a big lawn plaza in the middle.

   B 깔끔하네요. 근데 하나만 물어볼게요. 이 공원은 누구를 위한 공원이에요?

   Kkalkkeumhaneyo. Geunde hanaman mureobolgeyo. I gongwoneun nugureul wihan gongwonieyo?

   Very tidy. But let me ask you one thing. Who is this park for?

   Line 4
5. 5

   A 당연히 시민들이죠. 주말에 차 타고 놀러 오는 가족들이요.

   Dangyeonhi simindeurijyo. Jumare cha tago nolleo oneun gajokdeuriyo.

   The public, of course. Families who drive over at the weekend.

   Line 5
6. 6

   B 체감 온도가 삼십오 도를 넘는 한여름 오후 두 시에 그 가족들이 이 광장에 앉아 있을까요?

   Chegam ondoga samsibo doreul neomneun hannyeoreum ohu du sie geu gajokdeuri i gwangjange anja isseulkkayo?

   At two on a midsummer afternoon, when it feels like thirty-five degrees, would those families be sitting on this plaza?

   Line 6
7. 7

   A 사실 그 말씀을 드리려고 했어요. 지난주에 현장에 가 보니 그늘이 하나도 없길래 사람들이 어디서 쉬나 오후 내내 지켜봤거든요.

   Sasil geu malsseumeul deuriryeogo haesseoyo. Jinanjue hyeonjange ga boni geuneuri hanado eopgillae saramdeuri eodiseo swina ohu naenae jikyeobwatgeodeunyo.

   Actually, I was about to bring that up. When I went to the site last week there was no shade at all, so I spent the whole afternoon watching where people went to rest.

   Line 7
8. 8

   B 그래서요? 뭘 봤어요?

   Geuraeseoyo? Mwol bwasseoyo?

   And? What did you see?

   Line 8
9. 9

   A 넓은 광장은 한적하고, 사람들은 전부 다리 밑 그늘에만 모여 있었어요. 자전거 타는 분들도 거기서 쉬고요.

   Neolbeun gwangjangeun hanjeokago, saramdeureun jeonbu dari mit geuneureman moyeo isseosseoyo. Jajeongeo taneun bundeuldo geogiseo swigoyo.

   The open plaza was deserted, and everyone was crowded into the shade under the bridge. Even the cyclists were resting there.

   Line 9
10. 10

    B 그럼 답이 나왔네요. 이 공원에서는 그늘이 중심이 돼야 해요.

    Geureom dabi nawanneyo. I gongwoneseoneun geuneuri jungsimi dwaeya haeyo.

    Then there's your answer. In this park, the shade has to be the centrepiece.

    Line 10

    A 주차장을 반으로 줄이고 그 자리에 큰 나무를 심으면 어떨까요? 근처에 지하철역이 있어서 걸어오는 사람도 많았어요.

    Juchajangeul baneuro jurigo geu jarie keun namureul simeumyeon eotteolkkayo? Geuncheoe jihacheoryeogi isseoseo georeooneun saramdo manasseoyo.

    What if we cut the parking lot in half and plant big trees there instead? There's a subway station nearby, and lots of people came on foot.

    Line 11
12. 12

    B 좋아요. 주차장이 크면 사람보다 차를 위한 공원이 되기 마련이에요.

    Joayo. Juchajangi keumyeon saramboda chareul wihan gongwoni doegi maryeonieyo.

    Good. When the parking lot is big, a park inevitably ends up being for cars rather than people.

    Line 12
13. 13

    A 광장도 크기를 줄이고, 둘레를 따라 그늘이 있는 산책로를 만들게요.

    Gwangjangdo keugireul jurigo, dullereul ttara geuneuri inneun sanchaengnoreul mandeulgeyo.

    I'll make the plaza smaller too, and run a shaded walking path around it.

    Line 13
14. 14

    B 다리 밑 공간도 버리지 말고 살려 보세요. 사람들이 이미 알아서 쓰는 곳이잖아요.

    Dari mit gonggando beoriji malgo sallyeo boseyo. Saramdeuri imi araseo sseuneun gosijanayo.

    And don't waste the space under the bridge; make something of it. People are already using it on their own.

    Line 14
15. 15

    A 아, 거기에 벤치랑 작은 무대를 두면 주말 공연도 할 수 있겠네요.

    A, geogie benchirang jageun mudaereul dumyeon jumal gongyeondo hal su itgenneyo.

    Oh, if we put benches and a small stage there, we could even hold weekend performances.

    Line 15
16. 16

    B 바로 그거예요. 설계는 결국 사람들이 이미 하고 있는 행동을 읽는 일이에요.

    Baro geugeoyeyo. Seolgyeneun gyeolguk saramdeuri imi hago inneun haengdongeul ingneun irieyo.

    Exactly. In the end, design is about reading what people are already doing.

    Line 16
17. 17

    A 오늘 안으로 전체 구상을 다시 잡아서 내일 오전까지 보여 드리겠습니다.

    Oneul aneuro jeonche gusangeul dasi jabaseo naeil ojeonkkaji boyeo deurigetseumnida.

    I'll rework the whole concept today and show you by tomorrow morning.

    Line 17
18. 18

    B 그래요. 그리고 현장 사진도 같이 넣어요. 심사위원들한테는 그게 제일 설득력 있을 거예요.

    Geuraeyo. Geurigo hyeonjang sajindo gachi neoeoyo. Simsawiwondeulhanteneun geuge jeil seoldeungnyeok isseul geoyeyo.

    Good. And put the site photos in too. That'll be the most convincing thing for the judges.
