Give us some love while you learn Korean with KoreanClass101.com! In today’s Newbie Lesson, we’re going to be going over an indispensable phrase that is used with extreme frequency in Korean. As Ryuji wakes up in some woman’s house, he’s asking her for some water, food, and one more special item. So in today’s lesson, we’ll be going over how to ask someone for something in Korean. We’ll also be going over a speech softener, which will make you sound more polite, and more appreciated. After listening, remember to stop by KoreanClass101.com and leave us a comment!

오늘 전주 전통한옥마을에 다녀왔어요.
전주의 예술가도 만나고 왔구요.
전주는 어떤 음식으로 유명한 지 아시나요? 
바로바로~~ 비빔밥.
오늘 전주에서 비빔밥도 먹었답니다.
정~~말 맛있었어요

I guess the policeman left him out of jail to:
- get a bribe (no use in letting good money go to wast )
- see what Ryuji was doing with a knife in the first place !
Maybe ryuji really is a dangerous criminal … 
dang, why is everyone here so good at korean

정하 씨,
전주 전통 한옥 마을, 멋진데요? Is 전주’s 비빔밥 that good and different from 비빔밥 from other places?

Mmmh I don’t think people would give food to strangers that easily where I live…
왜냐하면 칼을 찾는 사람들이 위험해요 ㅋㅋㅋ
Anyway, I still trust 류지 : he’s not a criminal in my opinion…
Jeff (Javis) says:

Uh oh. 다른 Jeff님이 생겼는데. 앞으로 제가 코멘트를 할 때 Javis으로 서명해 드릴게요.
선현우(Hyunwoo Sun) says:

벤자민,
ㅎㅎㅎ 맞아요. But not many people would ask for a knife. Ryuji is special…
Jeff (Javis)
좋은 생각이에요! Wow we have two Jeff here.
Jeff (Javis) says:

목이 마르면 물을 부탁합니다
배가 고프면 밥을 부탁합니다
칼을 부탁하면 무슨 일입니까??

I’m just a *smiiiiiiidge* over 30….can I still be an agassi? 
Jeff says:
February 20th, 2008 at 1:41 pm
If you have a daughter, you’re definitely an ajumma.
나쁘지 않아요. 괜찮아요!
It’s not bad. Don’t worry!
Bouks says:
February 20th, 2008 at 2:06 pm
Jeff - but…but…we’re both very young-looking!
Ok, I’ll be an ajumma. Like the drama…”Here Comes Ajumma!” Look out! 
선현우(Hyunwoo Sun) says:
February 20th, 2008 at 4:11 pm
Jeff, 칼을 부탁하면… “과일을 깎으려고”? ㅎㅎ
Bouks, 괜찮아요. 아줌마 isn’t THAT bad… hehe.
Jeff (rooster) says:
February 21st, 2008 at 1:04 am
haha, since theres two jeffs, just call me rooster 
Trent says:
February 22nd, 2008 at 5:36 am
Oh…this is interesting
I think Ryuji maybe is a psycho, and we have an Old Boy type scene coming up soon!
BTW - I’m suprised to hear Seol is single. She’s pretty!
Maybe she has very high standards. hehehe
BTW2 - Would you consider Jang Dong Gun to be 아저씨 ? I think he is about 37 Korean age.
Bouks says:
February 22nd, 2008 at 9:14 am
Jeff-ssi and Hyunwoo-ssi - here’s an idea…on the series Jumong, all of the high-ranking noble married ladies were addressed as “Pu-in”. So I think that’s what you should call me instead of Ajumma 
선현우(Hyunwoo Sun) says:
February 22nd, 2008 at 10:07 am
Haha, Jeff(rooster), 좋은 생각이에요!(it’s a good idea!)
Trent, 장동건… haha. a very good question. his age would definitely make him an 아저씨 for sure, but… somehow … I have a feeling that he’s an exception. Haha. But generally, yes, a 37-yr-old would be an 아저씨. 다른 사람들은 어떻게 생각하세요? What do you think, everyone?
Bouks, 부인 sounds good but for you I will use the name 마님 that’s even more luxurious. haha.

As a person whose “user name” on various sites is invariably “auntie68″ or even “Auntie”, this lesson (and the lesson immediately preceding it) was particularly meaningul.
Well, this Auntie is a lazy newbie student who only this morning was two “Newbie” lessons (and God knows how many “Beginner” lessons,) behind, until she felt guilty and did some major “catch-up” work”.
But can I still say that it’s so great that our teacher, Hyunwoo Sun, is speaking so much more English in the lessons? Because his English is really, TRULY fantastic. Finally, thank you for continuing to take the trouble and the time to translate all the vocab in the audio blogs so that even newbies like me can enjoy them! Thank you so much…

Hyunwoo’s English really is amazing, isn’t it?
When I first met him, I assumed he had spent several years in America/Canada. His fluency really had me fooled. I was surprised to learn later that he hadn’t even been to the States!
He works hard! 수고했어!!
선현우(Hyunwoo Sun) says:
February 24th, 2008 at 7:54 pm
Auntie, 그리고 Austin, thank you so much for the kind words … hehe I’m still learning, but thank you! 앞으로도 화이팅!
We’ll keep having the vocab section in the audio blogs as detailed as it is now ^^ and will keep trying to make things better. 고맙습니다!
