These 15 exchanges are the dictionary's own examples for the 10 ungraded words in this category — 징검다리, 관제탑, 개찰구, 관문, 역전 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.
