Canine custody clash: Does dog belong to buyer or guardian?

기사 요약: 반려견을 처음 분양받은 사람과 실제로 기른 사람 중 누구에게 소유권이 있는지 가리는 판결에서 1심과 2심이 엇갈린 결론을 내 해당 사건이 대법원 판단을 받게 됐다.

[1] A messy canine custody battle broke out recently after a woman sued her son's former girlfriend, claiming ownership of a golden retriever who had lived with her for years but is legally owned by the ex-girlfriend.

*messy: 지저분한, 엉망인

*sue: 고소하다, 소송을 제기하다

*claim: (…이 사실이라고) 주장하다

[2] Seoul High Court recently ruled in favor of the ex-girlfriend, overturning an earlier ruling that granted the mother ownership of the animal.

*in favor of: …에 찬성[지지]하여

*overturn: (판결 등을) 뒤집다[번복시키다]

[3] "There is no evidence to believe that (the ex-girlfriend) explicitly expressed her will to give the dog to the plaintiff," the court said in its ruling.

*explicitly: 명쾌하게

*plaintiff: (민사 소송의) 원고, 고소인

[4] It also pointed out that after the plaintiff neutered the dog in November 2020, she told her son to inform his then-girlfriend of the procedure, saying this was proof that the plaintiff thought the dog belonged to the defendant at the time.

*neuter: 거세하다

*belong to somebody: ~소유[것]이다, ~에 속하다

*defendant: (재판에서) 피고

 IV drips: A quick energy shot for overworked Koreans

[1] “Feeling burnt out? You’ve come to the right place,” the doctor said during my consultation at a clinic in Yeouido, Seoul's financial district, before prescribing what he called a “garlic injection.”

* prescribe: 처방을 내리다 n. prescription / 규정,지시하다 (stipulate)

[2[ As an average South Korean national, I am used to eating tons of garlic, but I wasn’t quite ready to have it injected into my veins. It turned out that the “garlic injection” wasn't actually a shot of garlic extract or anything similar. It's a colloquial expression for an intravenous infusion therapy of vitamins that has a hint of a garlic scent.

*colloquial: 구어의, 일상적 대회의

*intravenous: 정맥으로 들어가는

[3] The prescription for me was a mix of B vitamins, vitamin C and an antioxidant called glutathione, which he said should help boost my energy and reduce fatigue.

When asked how long the fatigue treatment would last, the doctor said that it would depend on my workload. “For people who have a lot of work, the effect may disappear in two to three days, and for others, it could last for as long as a week.”

*antioxidant: 산화방지제, 방부제

*fatigue: 피로

[4] I came out of the clinic feeling rejuvenated, not knowing if it was the nap or the IV that helped. The treatment cost 110,000 won ($80). In South Korea, where medical care is highly accessible and affordable, primary care clinics offer IV therapy consisting of diverse nutrient cocktails, billing them as “Cinderella" shots, “placenta” shots, and “white jade” shots for anti-aging, curing hangovers, boosting immunity or even promoting glowing skin.

*rejuvenated: 다시 젊어보이는, 활기를 되찾는 (juvenile: 청소년의, 유치한)

*bill:~를 ~로 홍보/묘사하다

No. of mosquitoes unusually high in June

[1] Amid a relentless heat wave sweeping across South Korea, Seoul has seen a significant surge in its mosquito population over the past two weeks, turning a seasonal nuisance into a widespread concern.

*relentless: 가차 없는, 끈질긴 (relent: v. 포기하고 동의하다, 누그러지다)

*nuisance: 골칫거리, 성가신 사람(것/일) / public nuisance: 사회적 골칫거리

[2] According to the Seoul Mosquito Forecast System, the average mosquito activity index in the capital city has increased to the highest level of 100 in its four-tier system for two consecutive weeks since June 2.

*consecutive: 연이은

[3] The highest level of "unpleasant" means outdoor mosquito larval habitats are 50 to 100 percent formed. It is also defined by when five to 10 mosquitoes are seen penetrating indoors at night in areas where the concentration of freestanding houses is high, or when a person gets more than five mosquito bites during an outdoor activity at night, assuming that one remains in place for 10 to 15 minutes.

*larval: 유충, 애벌레

*penetrate: 관통하다, 침투하다

[4] During the same period a year ago, the mosquito activity index averaged 65.6.

"Unlike last year, it has rained a lot since early spring and the temperature has remained high, which has created the conditions for mosquitoes to live in puddles and other places early on," said Kim Dong-gun, an associate professor at Sahmyook University's Smith College, who is in charge of mosquito forecasting in Seoul.

*in charge of: ~맡아서, 담당하는

기사 요약: 외식 물가 상승으로 인한 반사 이익으로 매출 증가 겪는 대형마트들

*respectively: 각각

*in particular: 특히

*gap: 틈, 차이

[1] Celebrity dog trainer Kang Hyung-wook and his dog training business Bodeum Company are facing criticism for allegedly mistreating employees.

* Mistreat: (사람·동물을) 학대[혹사]하다

[2] According to several reviews on Job Planet, an online recruitment and job search platform, Kang and his wife Susan Elder, who serves as the company executive, surveilled employees' work messages that were sent using an instant messaging app, used violent language, gaslighted employees, and asked them to run excessive errands on their days off.

기사 요약: 입양에 대한 편견을 갖고 있는 사회에게 가족은 꼭 피로 맺어지지 않고 사랑으로 맺어진다는 메시지를 전한 입양가족들

[1] When Jeon Sung-shin, 45, was looking to expand her family without going through childbirth again, she met her then 50-day-old daughter at an orphan care center 11 years ago.

* Expand: 확장하다

* Go through: ~을 거쳐가다

* Childbirth: 출산

* Orphan: 고아

[2] Jeon fell in love with her at first sight and knew adoption would be a beautiful way to build her family. Growing up with the family, Jeon's youngest daughter is now in the sixth grade and is a promising tennis player.

* At first sight: 첫눈에

* Adoption: 입양

* Build: 짓다, 만들어 내다

* Promising: 유망한, 촉망되는

[3] But Jeon said rearing her hadn't always been easy, mainly because adoption still carries so much stigma, especially in a country where the "primacy of blood" had been of paramount importance under the Confucian ideology.

* Rearing: 양육

* Stigma: 낙인, 오명

* Paramount: 다른 무엇보다 가장 중요한, 최고의

* Ideology: 이념

[4] "Unlike Western countries, Koreans often tend to refer to somebody's birth mother when talking about who is really their family. But the biological parent has no custody over the child because all the rights are transferred to the adoptive parent," Jeon underscored.

* Biological parent: 생부모

* Custody: 양육권

* Transfer: 이전하다

[2] "Air operations are possible only when real-time communications, from transportation to operation to cabin maintenance, are smoothly organized and seamlessly prepared," said Korean Air President Woo Kee-hong during press conference held Thursday morning at the company's headquarters in Gimpo. "The public often regards 'service' as the core of airline operations, but more than 80 percent of Korean Air's 20,000 employees are involved in ‘safety’ related mission. This shows our high level of awareness and technological prowess in safe operations," Woo added.

'Gimflation’ in S. Korea as dried seaweed prices grow on rising global demand

기사 요약: '국민 반찬' 김 물가 상승에 더욱 커진 밥상 물가 부담

[1] Dried seaweed or gim, a staple dish nicknamed "rice thief" for its perfect pairing with rice, is seeing considerable popularity globally these days.

staple 주된, 주요한

pairing 한 쌍, 짝을 짓기

[2] In recent years, gim's deliciousness, coupled with its nutrient content and recognition as a food source beneficial to ocean ecosystems, has captivated taste buds worldwide, making its way into an unexpected array of dishes, served in salads, broths, casseroles, pizza and even occasionally sprinkled on ice cream.

beneficial 유익한, 이로운

captivate …의 마음을 사로잡다[매혹하다]

[3] Yet, despite the gim industry seeing a heyday here, ordinary people in Korea fear that the country’s humble, yet always satisfying trio on a table -- a bowl of white rice, kimchi and seasoned dried seaweed -- may one day no longer be considered a modest meal.

heyday 전성기, 한창때

modest 겸손한, 수수한

[4] In May, the average retail price of gim, in its most basic form roasted with no seasoning, is up over 80 percent from a year ago. Earlier this month, the Korean government lifted tariffs on imports of both dried and seasoned seaweed to stabilize local gim prices, effective until Sept. 30, after which the seaweed harvesting season begins.

roasted 구운

harvesting 수확, 거둬들이기
