이번 국악 수업에서 대금을 배웠는데 소리 내는 게 생각보다 어려워서 연습이 많이 필요한 거 같아.
In today's traditional music class, I learned the daegeum, and making a sound is harder than I thought, so I think I need a lot of practice.
진짜? 제대로 연주할 수 있게 되면 나한테도 꼭 들려줘.
Really? Once you can play it properly, you have to play it for me.
여기서 산 제품에 하자가 발생했어요.
The product I bought here has a defect.
죄송합니다. 제품을 가지고 오시면 즉시 대금을 환불해 드리겠습니다.
I'm sorry. If you bring the product, we'll refund the payment immediately.
옛 농민들이 부르던 고가를 통해서 당시 사회의 모습을 알 수 있는 것 같아요.
It seems like we can learn about the society of that time through the high-pitched songs that farmers used to sing.
맞아. 그래서 역사학적으로 가치 있는 자료로 인식되고 있단다.
Right. That's why they're recognized as historically valuable materials.
여기는 차가 많이 다녀서 늘 길이 막혀요.
There's so much traffic here that it's always jammed.
그래서 곧 고가를 지을 거라고 해요.
That's why they say they're going to build an overpass soon.

This item costs two million won.
생각보다 가격이 고가로 책정되었네요.
The price is set higher than I expected.
강 교수님, 오늘 음악회에서 악단 연주의 조화가 매우 훌륭했어요.
Professor Kang, the harmony of the orchestra at today's concert was truly excellent.
네, 악단을 지휘하는 지휘자의 능력이 뛰어나서 그렇죠.
Yes, that's because the conductor's ability to command the orchestra is outstanding.
오늘따라 거문고 음색이 좋지 않은 것 같아.
The gayageum's tone doesn't seem good today.
줄이 느슨하지는 않은지 한번 확인해 봐.
Check if the strings are loose.
어디서 둥둥 울리는 소리가 들리지 않아?
Don't you hear a rat-a-tat sound coming from somewhere?
응. 저쪽에서 북 치는 걸 연습하고 있더라.
Yeah, I saw someone practicing drumming over there.
연못에 라면 봉지랑 캔들이 둥둥 떠 있어!
There are ramen bags and cans floating in the pond!
아직도 연못에 쓰레기를 버리는 사람들이 있다니!
I can't believe there are still people throwing trash in the pond!
이번 무역 협정이 여섯 시간 동안 회의를 했는데도 불구하고 결렬됐다며?
I heard this trade agreement fell through even after six hours of meetings?
응, 양국이 각자 이익만 고수를 해 의견 차를 좁히지 못했대.
Yeah, both countries stuck to their own interests and couldn't narrow their differences.
춤의 고수가 되려면 어떻게 해야 할까요?
What should I do to become a master of dance?
타고난 재능도 중요하지만, 끊임없는 노력이 훨씬 더 중요하네.
Natural talent matters, but constant effort is far more important.
선생님 옆에 앉아 계신 분은 누구세요?
Who's that person sitting next to the teacher?
예전에 고수로 이름을 날리신 분이에요.
That's someone who made a name for themselves as a pansori drummer in the past.
요즘처럼 밤에 잠을 잘 못 잘 때는 어릴 때 어머니가 불러 주시던 자장가가 생각나.
On nights like these when I can't sleep well, I think of the lullaby my mother used to sing when I was little.
맞아. 나도 어릴 때 어머니 노랫소리에 편히 잠들곤 했었어.
Right. I also used to fall asleep peacefully to my mother's singing when I was young.
그 사람이 내 전화를 안 받는 건 나를 일부러 피하는 거라고 여겨도 되겠지?
Can I assume that him not answering my calls means he's deliberately avoiding me?
그렇게 단정적으로 간주를 할 게 아니라 자세한 사정부터 알아보자.
Instead of regarding it so definitively, let's first find out the full situation.
이 노래는 음을 기억하기가 쉽네.
This song is easy to remember the notes for.
전주하고 간주의 멜로디가 같아서 그런가 봐.
It's probably because the intro and the interlude have the same melody.

These 15 exchanges are the dictionary's own examples for the 8 6급 words in this category — 대금, 고가, 지휘하다, 거문고, 둥둥 and the rest. Each is two turns, so what you see is not only how the word is used but what it is usually said in answer to.
They are written examples rather than transcribed speech, so they are tidier than a real conversation and shorter. What they are not is translated English: they were written in Korean, by Korean lexicographers, to show how the word behaves — which is why the speech levels and the sentence endings in them are worth copying.
