- Squid! Peanuts!
Speaker A
- Oh, it's hot. Squid! Peanuts!
Speaker A
It would be so nice if we could go on a seaside vacation like Minji’s family.
Speaker A
Humph! Dream on. How can you say that after looking at your father? Oh, it’s hot.
Speaker A
Relaxing at home with a beer is the best thing during the summer. What did you say?
Speaker A
Oh, dear. There’s nothing I can do no matter how hard I try. What do you mean?
Speaker A
I’m just saying that our family will never be able to go on a seaside vacation.
Speaker A
So, that’s why we go to the countryside during the summer. Oh? Aren’t you happy we’re going to the countryside, my son?
Speaker A
- No. I don’t like it because there are too many bugs.
Speaker A
- Oh dear.
Speaker A
- The train will stop at the next station for ten minutes.
Speaker A
- Oh? Since we didn’t have breakfast, shall we go eat some noodles?
Speaker A
It would be perfect if I had a shot of soju with the noodles.
Speaker A
- What?
Speaker A
- Mom, I need to use the bathroom.
Speaker A
Mom, me too. I’m going to finish the soup, so take the kids and get on first.
Speaker A
Don’t do anything else and hurry up, okay? What could I possibly do? Let’s go.
Speaker A
Haha. Sir, give me a bottle of soju. What are you still doing here? Dad, I want ice cream.
Speaker A
What you just heard has to be kept a secret, okay?
Speaker A
Okay, a secret. Let’s see.
Speaker A
Hehe. This one!
Speaker A
Oh? Hey, hold on!
Speaker A
- Oh?
Speaker A
- I was going to eat that.
Speaker A
The one who gets to it first gets to have it. There’s only one left, so you should let me have it. I’m the kid.
Speaker A
Ha. Forget it.
Speaker A
- Ooh! Ah!
Speaker A
- Ah! Oh, that was so disgusting!
Speaker A
- Huh? Dad didn’t get on!
Speaker A
- Oh? Honey!
Speaker A
Oomph! Ah! Wait! Whew! Grandma!
Speaker A
Oh? Oh.
Speaker A
- Grandma!
Speaker A
- Oh, my precious babies. My babies.
Speaker A
It must have been tough traveling in this heat. Why doesn’t he look well?
Speaker A
All because of that noodle soup.
Speaker A
Snore snore. I should make him some noodles later. Hurry up! If you don’t hurry, then we’re going to go first.
Speaker A
Hehe. Oh, my! Look at my baby in her hat! You’re so odd. Mom, you know how I have sensitive skin.
Speaker A
Wow, it’s a dragonfly!
Speaker A
Haha. That’s right!
Speaker A
Oh? Hey! What are you doing there? We’re watching beetles fight.
Speaker A
Is it fun watching bugs fight?
Speaker A
Of course. It’s so much fun. Come over here and watch. Come on!
Speaker A
Oh! Oh! That’s right. Push your way through. Harder!
Speaker A
Wow! He won! What do you think? Isn’t it fun?
Speaker A
It is! What else is there to do that’s fun? But who are you guys?
Speaker A
Oh, yeah. I’m sorry. I’m Jadoo. Our grandma lives at that house with the persimmon tree.
Speaker A
Oh, so you must have come from Seoul.
Speaker A
Yeah. We came since we’re on vacation.
Speaker A
- Hehe.
Speaker A
- Oh? What was that laugh for? Are you guys making fun of me?
Speaker A
No no! Then, what is it? I don’t know if it’s because you’re from Seoul, but the way you talk and the way you look… You’re very pretty.
Speaker A
- Huh?
Speaker A
- Why are you blushing? What about my face? Hurry up and show us some other fun things to do!
Speaker A
Okay. Follow us.
Speaker A
Hehe. Wow!
Speaker A
Hehe. Okay. Tickle, tickle.
Speaker A
Haha. Me, too! Here. Tickle tickle.
