    Tomorrow? Let me see. I have an appointment with my friend in the morning. But I'm free after one o'clock. Why? Is there something going on?

  • listen
  • Su-jeong
  • 아니, 며칠 전에 내가 이사를 했거든. 그래서 너를 우리 집에 초대하려고.

    [Ani, myeochil jeone naega isareul haetgeodeun. Geuraeseo neoreul uri jibe chodaeharyeogo.]

  • Ri Ri
  • 정말? 축하해. 집들이 하는 거야?

  • 응. 위위도 초대했으니까 같이 와.

    [Eung. Wiwido chodaehaesseunikka gachi wa.]

    Yes. I also invited Wi Wi so you can come together.

  • Ri Ri
  • 좋아. 그런데 집들이 선물로 뭐 필요한 건 없어? 우리가 준비해 갈 게.

    [Joa. Geureonde jipdeuri seonmullo mwo piryohan geon eopseo? Uriga junbihae gal ge.]

    Sure. By the way, do you need something for your housewarming? We'll prepare something.

  • listen
  • Su-jeong
  • 아니야. 집들이 선물 많이 받아서 아무것도 필요없어. 그냥 와. 우리 집은 한남역 앞에 있는 한국아파트 102동1002호야.

    [Aniya. Jipdeuri seonmul mani badaseo amugeotdo piryo eobseo. Geunyang wa. Uri jibeun hannamyeok ape inneun hangukapateu baegidong cheonihoya.]

    No. I got a lot of housewarming gifts, so I don't need anything. Just come. My house is 1002 of Hanguk Apartment building number 102, next to Hannam Station.

  • listen
  • Ri Ri
  • 알았어. 그럼, 우리가 집들이 선물로 휴지랑 세제를 사가지고 갈 게.

    [Arasseo. Geureom, uriga jipdeuri seonmullo hyujirang sejereul sa gajigo gal ge.]

    Okay. Then we'll buy toilet paper and washing machine detergent as housewarming gifts.

  • listen
  • Su-jeong
  • 그래. 알았어. 그럼 우리 내일 보자.

    [Geurae. Arasseo. Geureom uri naeil boja.]

Dialogue 2. When invited to a friend’s house
  • Yun-ha
  • 어서 와! 집 찾느라고 고생했지?

    [Eoseo wa! Jip channeurago gosaenghaetji?]

    Hello! Did you have a hard time locating the house?

  • listen
  • Ri Ri
  • 아니야. 전철역에서 가까워서 금방 찾았어.

    [Aniya. Jeoncheolyeogeseo gakkawoseo geumbang chajatsseo.]

    No. It was easy to find because it is close to the subway station.

  • listen
  • Wi Wi
  • 이거 집들이 선물이야. 뭘 사야 할지 몰라서 그냥 작은 화분을 샀어.

    [Igeo jipdeuri seonmuriya. Mwol saya halji mollaseo geunyang jageun hwabuneul sasseo.]

    This is a housewarming gift. We didn't know what to buy, so we bought a small flowerpot.

  • listen
  • Yun-ha
  • 그냥 와도 괜찮은데 고마워.

    [Geunyang wado gwaenchaneunde gomawo.]

    You didn't have to. Thank you so much.

  • listen
  • Ri Ri
  • 우와! 집이 깨끗하고 예쁘다. 집 구경 좀 해도 돼?

    [Uwa! Jibi kkaekkeutago yeppeuda. Jib gugyeong jom haedo dwae?]

    Wow! The house is clean and pretty. Can we look around the house?

  • listen
  • Yun-ha
  • 응. 괜찮아. 너희 온다고 청소했어. 하지만 이사한 지 얼마 안 돼서 조금 엉망이야.

    [Eung. Gwaenchana. Neoheui ondago cheongsohaesseo. Hajiman isahan ji eolma an dwaeseo jogeum eongmangiya.]

    Sure. I cleaned up the house because you were coming. But it's still a little messy since I moved recently.

  • listen
  • Wi Wi
  • 뭘, 집이 넓고 아늑하고 좋은데.

    [Mwol, jibi neolgo aneukago joeunde.]

    No, the house is spacious and cozy. It's nice.

  • listen
  • Ri Ri
  • 집을 산 거야? 많이 비싸 보이는데...

    [Jibeul san geoya? Mani bissa boineunde...]

    Did you buy the house? It looks very expensive.

  • listen
  • Yun-ha
  • 아니야, 한국에서 집 사기는 너무 힘들어. 전세야.

    [Aniya, jib sagineun neomu himdeureo. Jeonseya.]

    No, it's hard to buy a house. It's a long-term lease on a deposit basis.

  • listen
  • Wi Wi
  • 그렇구나. 그래도 이렇게 좋은 집에 살다니 너 성공했구나? 우리에게 구두쇠처럼 야박하게 굴더니.

    [Geureokuna. Geuraedo ireoke joeun jibe saldani neo seonggonghaetguna? Uriege gudusoecheoreom yabakage guldeoni.]

    Oh, really. But to live in a great house like this, you have succeeded. No wonder you've been so stingy.

  • listen
  • Everybody
  • 하하하.

    [Hahaha.]

    Ha ha ha.

  • listen
  • Yun-ha
  • 미안. 대신 내가 맛있는 점심 준비했으니까 다 용서해주고 우리 점심 맛있게 먹자.

    [Mian. Daesin naega masinneun jeomsim junbihaesseunikka da yongseohaejugo uri jeomsim masitge meokja.]

    I'm sorry. Instead I've prepared a delicious lunch. So forgive me for everything. Let's enjoy the meal.

  • listen
  • Wi Wi, Ri Ri
  • 하하. 알았어.

    [Haha. Arasseo.]

    Ha ha. Okay.
