But the workers say these demands, while important, only skim the surface of what pushed thousands to walk out of Korea’s schools.walkout: 파업 (=strike)A walkout is a spontaneous or planned protest where workers leave their jobs together, while a strike is a more formal, organized work stoppage, often with a specific union vote and no set end dateskim: 훑어보다, 표면을 스치다[2] The school staff strike has been sparked by a deeper crisis, they say — one shaped by toxic working environments that treat the workers responsible for feeding Korea’s children as second-class citizens.treat: 어떤 태도로 대하다, 대접하다 / 선물, 간식[3] The workers say they have suffered years of breathing carcinogenic fumes, fainting in overheated kitchens, returning to work with lingering injuries and watching coworkers fall ill, sometimes fatally.carcinogenic: 발암성의, 암을 유발하는faint: 기절하다lingering: 오래 끄는, 사라지지 않는[4] They cite the case of a Seoul school cafeteria worker in her 50s, who learned she had lung cancer in 2023 after a CT scan. Doctors suggested it was caused by cooking fumes generated during frying and high-heat food preparation. The World Health Organization classifies these cooking emissions as probably carcinogenic.cite: 예를 들다기사 원문: https://www.koreaherald.com/article/10622632

He was 91. According to his family, Lee died early on Tuesday morning.towering: 대단히 뛰어난[2] Even in advanced age, Lee had continued to work across television, film and theater, remaining active until late 2024, when health problems forced him to withdraw midway through the run of the play “Waiting for Waiting for Godot.” His final screen appearance came in the KBS series “Dog Knows Everything,” which aired in September and October 2024. He accepted the broadcaster’s top acting prize at its year-end awards show in January before stepping back to rest.withdraw: 물러나다, 중단하다midway: 중간에 (=halfway)[3] During a 69-year illustrious career, Lee created some of the most indelible characters in Korean popular culture: the stern yet comedic “Daebal's Father,” the mischievous “Yadong Soon-jae” and the globe-trotting “Grandpa Over Flowers” persona that endeared him to younger generations. A consummate craftsperson, he often said that “a lifetime of acting still isn’t enough,” approaching each role as if it might be his last.

Yet photographs and videos released by state outlets KCNA and Korean Central Television show only limited equipment — notably a computed tomography scanner and an X-ray machine, with no sign of a magnetic resonance imaging device or other high-end diagnostic systems.* admit: 입장하게 하다; (무엇이 사실임을 마지못해) 인정하다* tout: 장점을 내세우다, 홍보하다* modernization: 현대화* high-end: 고급의[3] Despite its impressive infrastructure — with a helipad, grand lobby and conference halls — as shown in photos and videos, the hospital's interior suggests serious technological shortfalls.* despite: ~에도 불구하고* impressive: 인상적인* suggest: 시사하다; 암시하다* shortfall: 부족한 양[4] A Seoul Unification Ministry official, requesting anonymity, said Wednesday that Seoul's assessment, based on the photos, indicates that the facility likely "struggled to secure high-priced, cutting-edge medical equipment."

진행자: 박준희, Chelsea Proctor기사 제목: Talk of Beijing's lifting Hallyu ban 'premature': Presidential Committee on Popular Culture Exchange기사 교약: 시진핑 중국 국가주석이 한중 정상회담 만찬 자리에서 한국 가수의 중국 공연 제안에 긍정적으로 반응했다는 일부 언론 보도와 관련해, 대중문화교류위는 이를 과도하게 해석하는 것은 신중할 필요가 있으며, 성급한 판단이라는 입장을 밝혔다.[1] Amid rising hopes that Beijing will lift its unofficial Hallyu ban, following South Korean President Lee Jae Myung and Chinese President Xi Jinping's in-person summit on Saturday, the Presidential Committee on Popular Culture Exchange remained cautious, stressing it remains too early to draw conclusions.* raise hope: 희망을 드높이다* lift: ~을 없애다; ~을 들어올리다* summit: 정상회담; (산의) 정상* cautious: 조심스러운[2] In a press release Sunday, the committee dismissed news reports that Xi had "responded favorably" to Park Jin-young's suggestion during the Korea-China banquet that Korean artists be allowed to perform in China. Park, the founder of K-pop powerhouse JYP Entertainment, co-chairs the committee launched last month aimed at promoting exchanges and fostering the sector into a globally competitive industry.* respond: (남의 말·행동에 대해 특정한) 반응을 보이다* favorably: 호의적으로, 호의를 가지고* suggestion: 제안, 의견* banquet: (공식적, 형식을 갖춘) 연회, 만찬[3] This comes after several news outlets reported that Saturday's high-stakes meeting signaled a thaw from the period of diplomatic chill that followed Seoul's 2016 decision to install the US' THAAD missile defense system on its soil. As a form of retaliation, China essentially banned performances on its soil of Hallyu, also known as the Korean Wave, including K-pop -- though it has never officially acknowledged the policy.* high-stakes: 중대한 이해 관계가 걸린 (stakes: 걸린 돈, 판돈)* thaw: (적대적이던 국가 사이의) 해빙기; 녹다* chill: 냉기* retaliation: 보복[4] Calling such interpretations "premature," the committee said it is too early to assume any changes or read too much into the discussion. However, it noted that the friendly and cooperative atmosphere established during the summit could help pave the way for more cultural exchanges between the countries in the future.* interpretation: 해석; 이해* premature: 시기상조의; 너무 이른* assume: (사실일 것으로) 추정하다* atmosphere: (한정된 공간의) 분위기, 공기기사 원문: https://www.koreaherald.com/article/10606827[코리아헤럴드 팟캐스트 구독]아이튠즈(아이폰):https://itunes.apple.com/kr/podcast/koliaheleoldeu-paskaeseuteu/id686406253?mt=2네이버 오디오 클립(아이폰, 안드로이드 겸용): https://audioclip.naver.com/channels/5404팟빵 (안드로이드): http://www.podbbang.com/ch/6638

From 'oppa' to 'ajumma': How honorifics shape K-drama진행자: 홍유, Tannith Kriel기사요약: 로맨스의 설렘부터 세대 간 긴장까지, 한국어에서 호칭 한마디는 관계의 위계와 거리감을 그대로 비춘다. 이 미묘한 호칭 문화를 이해해야 장면 속 진짜 의미가 보인다.[1] If you’re a K-drama fan, chances are you’ve come across the world of Korean honorifics -- those small yet powerful words that can define entire relationships.honorifics: 상대에 대한 존중, 나이·지위·관계를 반영해 쓰는 높임 표현 또는 호칭[2] In a language built around relationships, these titles, from "oppa" and "eonni" to "seonbae" and "hubae," serve as emotional cues that drive storytelling and shape character dynamics in ways that English subtitles cannot replicate.emotional cues: 감정 상태나 분위기 변화를 암시하는 언어적·비언어적 신호dynamics: 인물 간 관계의 상호작용과 변화하는 힘의 흐름[3] Here, we explore some of the most commonly used terms that shape the subtle subtext of K-drama storytelling.subtle: 겉으로 드러나지 않지만 섬세하고 미묘한subtext: 직접 말하지 않고 숨겨진 의미나 의도, 장면 밑에 흐르는 메시지[4]Take "oppa," perhaps one of the most well-known terms in all of Korean pop culture. Literally meaning “older brother,” it’s used by women to address older men -- from actual siblings to boyfriends and close male friends. In dramas, when a woman suddenly starts calling a man oppa instead of his name, it usually signals that the emotional stakes have changed. It’s shorthand for romantic tension. Think "My Demon" or "Reply 1997" -- that single word can alter the emotional flow of the story.emotional stakes: 감정적으로 걸려 있는 이해관계·위험도, 감정적 긴장도shorthand: 복잡한 감정이나 의미를 단어·표현 하나로 간단히 전달하는 장치기사원문: https://www.koreaherald.com/article/10606781

Some criticized the gesture as “tone-deaf” in the wake of massive “No Kings” demonstrations in the US, while others viewed it as a strategic act of pragmatic diplomacy, particularly given the high-stakes tariff negotiations then underway between the two nations.tone-deaf: 분위기·정서를 파악하지 못하는, 상황을 잘못 읽는pragmatic: 실용적인, 현실적인 접근을 하는[3] At the center of the controversy is a specially crafted replica of a gold crown excavated from the Cheonmachong Tomb in Gyeongju, believed to date to the fifth or sixth century during the ancient Silla Kingdom (57 BC-AD 935). Lee conferred the crown, along with the Order of Mugunghwa, Korea’s highest honor, to Trump during their summit on Wednesday in Gyeongju, North Gyeongsang Province, on the sidelines of the Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation summit. The original crown, unearthed in the late 1970s in Silla capital Gyeongju, has been designated as National Treasure No. 188.excavated: 발굴된, 파내어진 (고고학적 발견에서 사용)confer: (상·칭호 등을) 수여하다, 부여하다[4] The replica was crafted from approximately 1 kilogram of gold, which alone currently commands a market price of around 187 million won ($131,000).command: (특정 가격을) 얻다, 형성하다기사원문: https://www.koreaherald.com/article/10605150
