Story Transcript:

Ko: 어느 추운 겨울 밤, 청계천은 화려한 등불로 가득했습니다.
En: One cold winter night, Cheonggyecheon was filled with magnificent lanterns.

Ko: 서울 등불 축제가 시작되었습니다.
En: The Seoul Lantern Festival had begun.

Ko: 사람들은 설날을 기념하며 환한 미소로 가득했습니다.
En: People were celebrating the Seollal with bright smiles all around.

Ko: 그 곳에 민재, 수민, 해원 세 형제가 있었습니다.
En: Among them were three siblings: Minjae, Sumin, and Haewon.

Ko: 민재는 맏형이었습니다.
En: Minjae was the eldest brother.

Ko: 그는 책임감이 강한 사람이었지만 감정을 잘 표현하지 않았습니다.
En: He was a very responsible person but didn't express his emotions well.

Ko: 그는 형제로부터 멀어진 시간을 아쉬워했습니다.
En: He regretted the time that had grown between him and his siblings.

Ko: 그래서 이번 설날에는 수민과 해원을 초대하기로 결심했습니다.
En: So, this Seollal, he decided to invite Sumin and Haewon.

Ko: 축제의 따뜻한 분위기가 형제들의 사이를 풀어줄 것이라 믿었습니다.
En: He believed that the warm atmosphere of the festival would mend their relationship.

Ko: 수민은 중간에 낀 둘째였습니다.
En: Sumin was the middle child.

Ko: 그녀는 모험심이 강하고 열린 마음을 가진 사람이었습니다.
En: She had a strong sense of adventure and an open mind.

Ko: 그녀는 항상 형제들 사이에서 중재자로서의 역할을 맡아왔습니다.
En: She always played the role of mediator among her siblings.

Ko: 해원은 막내로, 가족의 기대에 반항하며 독립적인 삶을 살고 있었습니다.
En: Haewon, the youngest, lived an independent life, rebelling against family expectations.

Ko: 그는 몇 년간 가족과 떨어져 있었습니다.
En: He had been apart from the family for several years.

Ko: 청계천의 등불 사이를 걷다 보니, 형제들은 오랫동안 쌓인 감정을 서로에게 이야기할 수밖에 없었습니다.
En: Walking among the lanterns at Cheonggyecheon, the siblings had no choice but to talk about the long-held feelings between them.

Ko: 의사소통 부족과 오해로 인한 거리감이 컸습니다.
En: The distance created by the lack of communication and misunderstandings was immense.

Ko: 민재는 조심스럽게 말을 꺼냈습니다.
En: Minjae cautiously started to speak.

Ko: "해원아, 너를 많이 그리워했다.
En: "Hey Haewon, I've missed you a lot.

Ko: 우리 함께 하고 싶어.
En: I want us to be together."

Ko: "해원은 처음에는 받아들이기 힘들어 보였지만, 수민이 양쪽을 붙잡고 중재했습니다.
En: Initially, Haewon seemed reluctant to accept, but Sumin held both sides and mediated.

Ko: "우리, 서로 오해가 많았던 것 같아.
En: "I think we had a lot of misunderstandings with each other.

Ko: 지금이라도 풀어보자.
En: Let's try to resolve them now."

Ko: "축제 속 등불이 형제들의 눈물을 밝게 비추었습니다.
En: The lanterns of the festival shone brightly, highlighting the tears of the siblings.

Ko: 해원은 감정을 누르던 마음의 문을 열었습니다.
En: Haewon opened the door to his heart, suppressing his emotions.

Ko: "형, 미안해.
En: "I'm sorry, brother.

Ko: 나도 그리웠어.
En: I've missed you, too.

Ko: 가족은 중요한 거잖아.
En: Family is important, after all."

Ko: "형제들은 서로 꼭 안았습니다.
En: The siblings embraced each other tightly.

Ko: 따뜻한 순간이었습니다.
En: It was a warm moment.

Ko: 세 사람은 앞으로 가족관계를 개선하기로 했습니다.
En: The three decided to improve their family relationship from now on.

Ko: 민재는 감정을 표현하는 법을 배웠고, 해원은 마음을 열고 가족과 더 자주 소통하기로 했습니다.
En: Minjae learned how to express his emotions, and Haewon chose to open his heart and communicate with his family more frequently.

Ko: 수민은 그들의 다리 역할을 계속하기로 했습니다.
En: Sumin committed to continuing her role as the bridge among them.

Ko: 형제들은 아름답게 빛나는 등불 아래서, 진정한 가족의 의미를 다시 한번 깨달았습니다.
En: Under the beautifully glowing lanterns, the siblings rediscovered the true meaning of family.

Ko: 그날 밤은 형제들 간의 소중한 시작이었습니다.
En: That night was a precious new beginning for the siblings.
