Story Transcript:

Ko: 서울의 고아원은 가을맞이 준비로 분주했습니다.
En: The orphanage in Seoul was busy preparing for autumn.

Ko: 창밖에는 형형색색의 나뭇잎이 선명한 하늘을 배경으로 떨어지고 있었어요.
En: Outside the window, colorful leaves fell against the backdrop of a bright sky.

Ko: 아이들은 언제나처럼 뒤뜰 작은 축구장에 모여 바람을 맞으며 축구를 했습니다.
En: As always, the children gathered on the small soccer field in the backyard, playing soccer in the wind.

Ko: 지호는 12살의 꼭 축구를 사랑하는 소년이었습니다.
En: Jiho was a 12-year-old boy who loved soccer.

Ko: 그러나 그는 요즘 아픕니다.
En: However, he had been unwell lately.

Ko: 그의 마음속에 걱정과 불안이 가득했습니다.
En: His heart was filled with worries and anxiety.

Ko: 축구 챔피언십 시즌이 다가오고 있었지만, 그는 병으로 인해 경기에 참여할 수 없었습니다.
En: The soccer championship season was approaching, but due to his illness, he could not participate in the game.

Ko: 지호는 다른 아이들과 함께 하는 경기를 그리워하며 이상하게도 소외감을 느꼈습니다.
En: Longing to play with the other kids, Jiho strangely felt left out.

Ko: 추석이 다가오자 고아원은 더욱 활기찼습니다.
En: As Chuseok approached, the orphanage became livelier.

Ko: 각종 전통 음식이 준비되고, 복도에는 송편의 맛있는 냄새가 가득했습니다.
En: Various traditional foods were prepared, and the delicious smell of songpyeon filled the hallways.

Ko: 하지만 지호는 여전히 침대에 누워 촉촉하게 찬 조명 속에서 휴식했습니다.
En: But Jiho continued to lie in bed, resting under the gentle, cool lights.

Ko: 그때, 그의 친구 은지와 태양이 옆으로 다가왔습니다.
En: Then, his friends Eunji and Taeyang came up to him.

Ko: "지호, 넌 꼭 나아질 거야," 은지는 따뜻하게 말하며 지호의 이마를 만졌습니다.
En: "Jiho, you will get better," Eunji said warmly, touching his forehead.

Ko: 태양도 웃으며 말했습니다. "우린 너 없이 경기를 이길 수 없어."
En: Taeyang smiled and said, "We can't win the game without you."

Ko: 지호는 결심했습니다.
En: Jiho made up his mind.

Ko: 그가 경기에 참여할 수 없더라도, 그는 다시 강해질 것입니다.
En: Even if he couldn’t participate in the game, he would become strong again.

Ko: 그는 비밀스럽게 혼자 작은 운동을 시작하고, 좋아하는 축구선수의 영상을 보며 스스로를 동기부여했습니다.
En: He secretly began doing small exercises and watched videos of his favorite soccer players to motivate himself.

Ko: 드디어 대망의 경기 날, 지호는 여전히 몸이 약했지만 나서기로 결심했습니다.
En: Finally, on the day of the much-anticipated match, although still weak, Jiho decided to step up.

Ko: 경기장은 흥미로운 분위기로 가득 찼고 주변에는 환호하는 아이들로 가득찼습니다.
En: The stadium was filled with an exciting atmosphere and surrounded by cheering children.

Ko: 지호는 축구장에 들어섰고, 그의 마음은 두근거렸습니다.
En: Jiho stepped onto the field, his heart pounding.

Ko: 그는 공을 잡고 뛰기 시작했지만, 몸은 쉽게 지쳤습니다.
En: He started to run with the ball, but his body tired easily.

Ko: 그 순간, 그의 친구들이 달려와 그를 도왔습니다.
En: At that moment, his friends came running to help him.

Ko: 은지와 태양은 지호의 어깨를 잡고 그에게 미소 지었습니다.
En: Eunji and Taeyang held his shoulders and smiled at him.

Ko: "괜찮아, 지호야. 네가 여기 있는 것만으로 우린 충분해," 태양이 말했습니다.
En: "It's okay, Jiho. Just having you here is enough for us," Taeyang said.

Ko: 은지와 태양의 말에 지호는 깨달았습니다. 그는 축구를 통해 단순히 경기를 하는 것 이상으로 소중한 우정을 쌓았음을 알게 되었습니다.
En: Through their words, Jiho realized he had built a precious friendship through soccer, something more than just playing the game.

Ko: 지호는 친구들의 미소를 보며 진정한 연결이야말로 자신이 필요로 했던 것임을 깨달았습니다.
En: Seeing the smiles of his friends, he understood that true connection was what he needed.

Ko: 추석이 끝나갈 즈음, 지호는 비록 축구 경기에 참여하지 못했지만 마음속 깊이 행복을 느꼈습니다.
En: As Chuseok was coming to an end, although he hadn’t participated in the soccer match, Jiho felt true happiness deep in his heart.

Ko: 아이들은 지호를 보고 "우리는 항상 함께야, 지호야,"라며 따뜻하게 안아주었습니다.
En: The children warmly hugged him and said, "We are always together, Jiho."

Ko: 지호는 웃으며 말했습니다. "고마워, 정말로."
En: Jiho smiled and said, "Thank you, truly."

Ko: 따뜻한 가을바람이 불며, 모든 것이 평온했습니다.
En: The warm autumn wind blew, and everything was peaceful.

Ko: 지호는 결국 자신이 어딘가에 속해 있다는 것을 깊이 깨달았습니다.
En: Jiho finally realized that he belonged somewhere.

Ko: 그는 결코 혼자가 아니었습니다.
En: He was not alone at all.
