A South Korean college student's video blog about her escape from Israel is garnering nationwide interest here, as it detailed how she barely managed to leave the conflict-ridden country. *garner (정보·지지 등을) 얻다[모으다] *barely 간신히, 가까스로, 빠듯하게 *conflict-ridden 갈등에 시달리는 The female student in her 20s was first notified of the situation via a siren that blared at 3 a.m. on June 13, prompting an evacuation to a nearby shelter. *blare (소리를) 요란하게[쾅쾅] 울리다 *prompt 즉각적인, 지체 없는/ (질문·힌트 등을 주어 말을 하도록) 유도하다 "I initially thought the situation would resolve soon, but I heard the sirens again the next day," she said in the video, showing flying missiles that she witnessed from the window of her college dormitory. *resolve (문제 등을) 해결하다 *witness (사건·사고를) 목격하다 She was initially scheduled to leave Tel Aviv on June 16 on a plane headed to Paris, which she booked four months ago, but she found that the flight was cancelled.

    오징어게임 시즌3, 성공 신화 이어갈까?

    진행자: 박준희, Chelsea Proctor 'Squid Game' back in Season 3, more intense than ever, to settle final score 기사 요약: 넷플릭스 최고 흥행 TV 시리즈로 꼽히는 "오징어 게임"이 올 여름 긴 이야기에 마침표를 찍는다. [1] As anticipation builds, series director Hwang Dong-hyuk and key cast members opened up about what fans can expect — and how they're addressing both the shortcomings of Season 2 and the headline-making spoiler leaks that surfaced ahead of the new season. * anticipation: 기대 * open up: 마음을 터놓다 * shortcoming: 단점 * ahead of: ~에 앞서 [2] Season 3 picks up in the aftermath of Season 2's events, following Gi-hun (Lee Jung-jae) as he grapples with his failed attempt at rebellion. Meanwhile, Frontman (Lee Byung-hun), who infiltrated the games in Season 2 as a participant, returns to his role as the unfeeling, calculating mastermind behind the deadly competition, setting the stage for his face-off with Gi-hun. * pick up: 다시 시작하다 * aftermath: 여파 * grapple with: ~를 해결하려고 노력하다 * face-off: 대결 [3] "Gi-hun falls into a state of deep helplessness after witnessing his closest friend being killed by the Frontman. But he regains his resolve, returning to his original intention to dismantle the entire system while still holding onto his belief in humanity. With this determination, he starts planning again. Seeing Gi-hun's renewed resolve, the Frontman also begins devising new plans," Lee said. * helplessness: 난간함 * resolve: 결심 * dismantle: 해체하다 * devise: (방법을) 궁리하다 [4] "If we consider Seasons 2 and 3 as telling one continuous story, Season 3 will deliver the climax and conclusion, the final act of the narrative. From a dramatic standpoint, it will inevitably feel very intense. In a sense, this will be the story where the full-fledged confrontation between the Frontman and Gi-hun truly unfolds," he added. * climax: 절정 * narrative: 서사 * standpoint: 관점 * full-fledged: 본격적인 기사 원문: https://www.koreaherald.com/article/10504972 [코리아헤럴드 팟캐스트 구독] 아이튠즈(아이폰):https://itunes.apple.com/kr/podcast/koliaheleoldeu-paskaeseuteu/id686406253?mt=2 네이버 오디오 클립(아이폰, 안드로이드 겸용): https://audioclip.naver.com/channels/5404 팟빵 (안드로이드): http://www.podbbang.com/ch/6638

    2년 기다림 끝에 아미 곁으로 돌아온 BTS 지민과 정국

    진행자: 박준희, Chelsea Proctor Road to Yeoncheon lined with love as BTS’ Jimin, Jungkook are discharged 기사 요약: 그룹 방탄소년단(BTS)의 지민( 정국(전정국)이 1년 6개월간의 군 복무를 마치고 육군 병장으로 만기 전역했다. [1] Just a day after RM and V were discharged from the military, fellow BTS members Jimin and Jungkook stood before a crowd of some 500 fans Wednesday morning at Yeoncheon Public Stadium in Gyeonggi Province, marking the end of their 18-month mandatory military service. * discharged: 해제된 * fellow: 동료의 * stand before: ~앞에 서다 * crowd: 사람들, 무리 [2] Wearing their uniforms, the two arrived in a black vehicle and stepped out to a roaring welcome from local and international fans. They saluted and shouted “Unity!” before offering brief words of thanks, both appearing bashful as they reconnected with their supporters after a long absence. * uniform: 군복 * roaring: 아우성치는 듯한 * salute: 경례를 하다 * reconnect: 다시 연결되다 [3] Jungkook, smiling shyly, said, “It’s been a while since I’ve stood in front of cameras. I didn’t even put on makeup today, so I feel a bit awkward and don’t really know what to say.” He added, “To my fellow soldiers and seniors who finished their service earlier — thank you for enduring everything together with us.” * stand in front of: ~의 앞에 서다 * awkward: 뻘쭘하다 * endure: 참아내다 [4] Despite the early hour, fans from around the world filled the area near the event site, waving banners and fan sticks in support of the two stars. Some even climbed to the low rooftop of the stadium next to the open ground where the two K-pop stars appeared, trying to get a better view of the pair. * despite: ~에도 불구하고 * banner: 현수막 * in support of: ~을 지지하여 * pair: (둘씩) 짝을 짓다 [코리아헤럴드 팟캐스트 구독] 아이튠즈(아이폰):https://itunes.apple.com/kr/podcast/koliaheleoldeu-paskaeseuteu/id686406253?mt=2 네이버 오디오 클립(아이폰, 안드로이드 겸용): https://audioclip.naver.com/channels/5404 팟빵 (안드로이드): http://www.podbbang.com/ch/6638

    자녀 양육에 필요한 비용, 한국에서는 얼마나 들까?

    진행자: 홍유, Chelsea Proctor How much is enough to raise a child in South Korea? 기사요약: 한국의 저출산 현상 뒤에는 자녀 양육에 드는 높은 비용이라는 현실적인 고민이 자리하고 있다. [1] South Korea’s dwindling birth rate has become something of a global curiosity and a national crisis, making frequent headlines. Yet behind the statistics lies a quieter, more personal calculus — one that plays out in the homes of young adults weighing whether to have a child. dwindle: 줄어들다, 감소하다 calculus: 계산, 판단 기준 [2] More often than not, the key factor is cost. So how much do young parents — or would-be parents — believe it takes to raise a child in South Korea today? And what feels realistic, or essential? factor: 요소, 요인 essential: 필수적인, 꼭 필요한 [3] Lee Eun-ji, a mother in Seoul raising a 3-year-old girl, said the ideal amount to spend on raising a child would be one parent’s salary. For her, that’s about 4 million won a month. “Every meaningful childhood experience comes with a cost,” she said. ideal: 이상적인, 가장 바람직한 childhood: 어린 시절, 유년기 [4] She recalled feeling guilty when she learned that other parents were able to enroll their children in Montessori programs, which focus on self-directed learning and hands-on activities. “I wanted that kind of exposure for my child, but it costs 500,000 won for just 12 classes. It was too much,” she said. recall: 기억하다, 떠올리다 enroll: 등록하다, 입학하다 exposure: 접함, 노출, 경험 기사원문: https://www.koreaherald.com/article/10502759

    북촌, 글로벌 관광객 위한 새로운 쇼핑 명소로 부상

    진행자: 홍유, Chelsea Proctor Bukchon emerges as new shopping hot spot in Seoul for global tourists 기사요약: 북촌은 전통문화와 현대 쇼핑이 어우러진 공간으로 변모하며 글로벌 관광객을 끌어들이는 서울의 새로운 쇼핑 명소로 부상하고 있다. [1] Nestled between the historical grandeur of the main palace Gyeongbokgung and the winding alleys of traditional hanok, Bukchon is being transformed from a heritage enclave into one of Seoul’s most dynamic shopping destinations, particularly for international travelers. grandeur: 장엄함, 위풍당당함 enclave: 소속된 지역, 집단 [2] Once known primarily for its well-preserved architecture and cultural significance, Bukchon is now a growing hub for fashion, beauty and fragrance brands. With an influx of flagship stores, limited-edition product launches and experiential spaces, the neighborhood is drawing attention from both domestic trendsetters and foreign visitors. well-preserved: 잘 보존된 influx: 유입, 밀어닥침 [3] That growth is backed by hard data. According to the city of Seoul’s real-time statistics, monthly credit card spending in Bukchon Hanok Village rose from 1.9 billion won ($1.38 million) in January to over 2.57 billion won last month. Projections suggest spending may exceed 3 billion won by the end of this month. hard data: 객관적이고 구체적인 수치 자료 projection: 예상, 추정 [4] Recognizing its potential, both global and local brands are establishing a presence in the neighborhood. Tamburins, a K-beauty fragrance label known for its minimalist design and immersive retail experience, opened its Bukchon flagship store in 2023. presence: 존재, 입지, 출현 immersive: 몰입감 있는, 몰입형의 기사원문: https://www.koreaherald.com/article/10497705

    서울을 혼자 즐기는 방법?

    진행자: 최정윤, Devin Whiting The best (lesser-known) things about Seoul for solo residents 기사 요약: 서울의 '혼족러'들이 서울을 오롯이 혼자서 즐기고 있는 방법들은? [1] I love to sing, but as a kid, belting out tunes on a karaoke machine usually meant rallying at least one friend to go to the local noraebang (singing room). For a boy who was a bit of a loner, this could be challenging. belt out: 힘차게 노래부르다 loner: 주로 혼자 지내거나 이를 선호하는 사람 [2] Then came the 2010s — and with them, a delightful invention: the coin noraebang (pay-per-song karaoke). A sanctuary for solo singers, it offered sweet salvation to those who want to sing their hearts out without the judgmental stares of others. sanctuary: 피난처, 안식처 salvation: 구원, 구조 (- army 구세군) sing one's heart out: 가슴이 터지도록 크게 부르다 stare: 빤히 쳐다보다 [3] Coin noraebang is just one of many urban pleasures catering to Seoul’s growing population of solo dwellers. From one-person barbecue joints to bars and restaurants designed for a party of one, these spaces embrace those who choose to stay in their cocoon of voluntary solitude. cater to: ~을 충족시키다 cocoon: 보호막, 고치 solitude: 고독 [4] And so, Seoul has become a haven for the "honjok," or people like me who choose to do things by themselves. Honjok is a portmanteau of “hon” from the Korean word “honja,” meaning alone, and “j*k,” meaning tribe. haven: 안식처, 피난처, portmanteau: 혼성어 기사 원문: https://www.koreaherald.com/article/10496400

    쏟아지는 대선 공약, 위기인구 대책은 어디에?

    진행자: 최정윤, Devin Whiting Clock is ticking, but demographic crisis gets drowned out in presidential race 기사 요약: 이른 대선을 앞두고 대통령 후보들이 여러 공약을 선보였던 가운데, 저출산과 초고령 사회로의 진입 등 한국의 심각한 인구 위기에 대한 공약이 부족하다는 의견 많아 [1] The compounding challenges of South Korea’s low birth rate and the onset of a super-aged society have drawn little focus on the presidential campaign trail for the June 3 presidential election. The numbers alone underscore the urgency of strategically and systemically confronting the demographic crisis. compounding: 복합적인 onset: 시작 [2] South Korea’s fertility rate was recorded at 0.75 in 2024, meaning the average South Korean woman is expected to have fewer than one child in her lifetime. Still, the country found a sliver of relief in the data, as 2024 marked the first time in nine years that the birth rate had not declined. sliver: 조각 [3] At the same time, however, the nation officially transitioned into a “super-aged society” in December 2024 — a milestone that arrived earlier than expected. Observers called for a more holistic approach to devising campaign promises that tackle these demographic challenges, saying the next five years would be crucial to determining the country's fate. They warned that South Korea might otherwise be plagued by a range of social problems: the demise of remote rural areas, a workforce shortage, weaker military strength and a pension fund crisis, among other things. milestone: 중요한 단계 holistic: 전체적인 plague: 괴롭히다, 성가시게 하다 /전염병 demise: 종말, 죽음 기사 원문: https://www.koreaherald.com/article/10492546
