A: I just have to say, your comedy shows always leave me in stitches!/ B: Ah, so my jokes are working then!
A: Haha, I mean it. Your ability to find humor in everyday situations is remarkable./ B: Well, life is too short not to laugh.
A: Actually, your comedy really helped me when I was in the hospital.
B: Wow, then the next time you see me, call me Dr. Carrey. Seriously, thank you so much.
A: Did they teach you about the Korean War back in school?
B: Sure. That intense clash between the North and South in the 1950s, right?
A: Bingo! It started today in 1950 when the North Korean forces charged across the border.
B: Right, and then the UN stepped in to back up the South, with the US ane others lending a hand.
A: This summer, I'm thinking of going abroad, maybe to Europe.
B: Cool! I'm traveling, too! I'm considering joining a group tour this time.
A: Really? I'm not too sure about that. What's good about group tours?
B: Well, they take care of everything ㅡ itinerary, accommodation, and even guided tours.
A: Sounds convenient! And it's fun to meet new people too./ A: But isn't a group tour a bit restrictive?
B: Yeah, to some extent. Sometimes you're rushed through attractions, and there's less flexibility.
A: I heard they stick to a fixed schedule, which can be tiring.
B: Plus, you might miss out on discovering lesser-known places.
A: True, and you're always with a big group, so it's less personal.
A: So, I've decided to go for a group tour with my mom for the first week.
B: How sweet! That'll be a nice bonding experience./ A: I hope so, and then for the second week, we'll do our own thing.
B: That's perfect! You get the best of both worlds ㅡ structured tour and independent exploration.
A: Exactly! I can't wait for our summer adventures!
A: I was born in 2039./ B: What?/ A: I'm from the future./ B: You're making me scared.
A: I'm at the hotel./ B: I'm in Room 111./ A: Can't you come down?/ B: Oh, okay.
A: How much is this?/ B: It's 35,000 won./ A: That's so cheap!/ B: Oh, I meant 350,000 won.
A: How big is your apartment?/ B: It's 85㎡./ A: Is that like a 3-bedroom apartment?/ B: Yup!
A: How tall are you?/ B: I'm five seven./ A: I thought you were taller./ B: Nope.
