Story Transcript:

Ko: 여름 햇살이 따사롭게 내리쬐는 경주의 고대 유적.
En: The ancient ruins of Gyeongju basked in the warmth of the summer sun.

Ko: 오래된 돌기둥은 멀리 보이는 푸른 하늘과 대조를 이루며 서 있었다.
En: Old stone pillars stood, contrasting with the distant blue sky.

Ko: 지수는 동생 둘, 하나와 민준과 함께 여름 방학을 맞아 이곳에 왔다.
En: Jisoo had come to this place with her two younger siblings, Hana and Minjun, to enjoy their summer vacation.

Ko: 그녀는 대학생으로서의 책임과 동생들을 돌봐야 하는 부담감 사이에서 고민하고 있었다.
En: She was torn between the responsibilities of a college student and the burden of taking care of her siblings.

Ko: "언니, 더워!" 하나가 짜증이 난 얼굴로 말했다.
En: “Sis, it’s hot!” complained Hana, with an annoyed expression.

Ko: 민준도 지친 얼굴로 "이거 재미없어. 돌아가자."라고 했다.
En: Minjun, looking equally exhausted, said, "This is boring. Let's go back."

Ko: 지수는 순간 당황했다.
En: Jisoo was momentarily flustered.

Ko: 동생들에게 멋진 경험을 해주고 싶었지만, 역사에는 별로 흥미가 없다는 것을 알았다.
En: She wanted to give them a wonderful experience, but she realized they weren't very interested in history.

Ko: 그리고 그녀 자신도 이번 여행에서 차분함을 찾고 싶었다.
En: She herself wished to find some calm during the trip.

Ko: 갑자기, 지수는 아이디어가 떠올랐다.
En: Suddenly, an idea came to Jisoo.

Ko: “얘들아, 우리 여기서 게임하자. 숨겨진 보물을 찾아봐.” 지수는 동생들에게 웃으며 말했다.
En: "Hey guys, let's play a game. Let's look for hidden treasure here." She suggested to her siblings with a smile.

Ko: 그들의 시선이 반짝였다. "보물 찾기?" 민준이 물었다.
En: Their eyes sparkled. "Treasure hunt?" Minjun asked.

Ko: 지수는 고개를 끄덕였다. "여기 어딘가에 숨겨진 돌판이나 특별한 것이 있을지 몰라."
En: Jisoo nodded. "There might be a hidden stone tablet or something special around here."

Ko: 아이들은 활기를 되찾았고, 셋은 함께 유적지를 탐험하기 시작했다.
En: The children regained their energy and the three of them began to explore the ruins together.

Ko: 그들은 돌 사이를 뛰어다니며 숨겨진 것을 찾았다.
En: They ran between the stones searching for hidden items.

Ko: 그리고 그 순간, 민준이 신나게 소리쳤다. “여기, 여기 무언가 있어!”
En: Then, Minjun exclaimed excitedly, “Here, there's something here!”

Ko: 작은 돌탑 아래에서 숨겨진 돌판이 나왔다.
En: From under a small stone tower, a hidden stone tablet emerged.

Ko: 지수는 그 돌판을 조심스럽게 들어올리며 말했다. "이건 오래전 우리 조상들이 남긴 기록일지도 몰라."
En: Jisoo, carefully lifting the tablet, said, "This might be a record left by our ancestors long ago."

Ko: 아이들은 눈을 반짝이며 그녀의 이야기를 들었다. 지수는 가족의 역사와 전설에 대해 이야기하며 동생들에게 새로운 세계를 열어주었다.
En: The children listened intently, their eyes shining as she spoke of family history and legends, opening up a new world to them.

Ko: 그 순간, 그들은 하나가 되었다.
En: In that moment, they became one.

Ko: 돌아오는 길에, 아이들은 “정말 재미있었어!”라며 신나게 말했다.
En: On the way back, the children exclaimed, "That was really fun!" excitedly.

Ko: 지수는 미소를 지었다. 그녀는 자신 안의 책임과 즐거움을 찾았다.
En: Jisoo smiled. She had found both the responsibility and joy within herself.

Ko: 이제 그녀는 알았다. 재미와 책임 모두를 가질 수 있다는 것을.
En: Now she knew. It was possible to have both fun and responsibility.

Ko: 지수는 더 이상 부담스러워하지 않았다.
En: Jisoo no longer felt burdened.

Ko: 그녀는 자신감과 함께 집으로 돌아갈 준비가 되었다.
En: She was ready to return home with confidence.

Ko: 자연과 역사를 느끼며, 그녀는 새로운 시각으로 세상을 바라보게 되었다.
En: Feeling the nature and history, she started to see the world from a new perspective.
