Tim: Nice one! "home" is 집 + "at" is 에서...
Debbie: So, "at home" is...?
Tim: 집에서. Please repeat after me. 집에서.
[pause]
Debbie: Good! How about..."in Korea"?
Tim: "Korea" is 한국 + "at" is 에서...
Debbie: So "in Korea" is...?
Tim: 한국에서. Please repeat after me. 한국에서.

Debbie: Tim, we've just learned about "명동" and "밀리오레" throughout the lesson vocab. Let's use them here.
Debbie: How about "in 명동"?

Debbie: So "in 명동" is...?
Tim: 명동에서. Please repeat after me. 명동에서.
[pause]

Tim: "We" is 우리 plus..

Tim: "Should meet?" is 만날까?
Debbie: So all together, "Where should we meet?" is...?
Tim: 우리, 어디에서, 만날까? Please repeat after me. 우리 어디에서 만날까?
[pause]
Debbie: Great! Let's try one more. How about... "Let's meet in 명동"?

Debbie: "Let's meet" is 만나자. So all together "let's meet in 명동?" is...?
Tim: 명동에서, 만나자. Please repeat after me. 명동에서 만나자.
[pause]
