Chapter 27 to 33 Translations of the Original Story
Chapter 27 to 33 Translations of the Original Story
Hello people, I am omersermet. I don't know how to start writing this thread but I have a lot of things to say.
You can skip these and go to the Chapter 27 translation. It is at the ending of the post :)
I saw this story 1 year ago, after I watched My Sassy Girl, and I loved it. I was reading it everyday, properly. I had the copy of the translations on paper. I was reading it even in the bus, when going to university from my hometown. After bumfromkorea's translations I saw kaleidoscopeyes' translation, but he hadn’t translated all chapters too, there were still 7 chapters to translate, and nobody was saying a word. I write a reply to the original thread saying Koreans who read this should translate the rest, but there was still no sound of translation. I don't know if it was the instinct to finish things inside me but I felt a little responsible to finish translations. I would love to do it. It was a hobby to read them, but I didn't know any Korean, so what should I do?
I had a little debate inside my brain. I thought about finishing the translations. And I would love to do that. And I decided to do that.
I thought about finding Korean friends online, and ask them to translate 1 chapter. In that way, I would translate 7 chapters by finding 7 friends. I registered to Interpals.net and find some friends there, I don't know if it's the shyness of Korean people but none of them accepted to do that. And I also had a life to move on. I decided to let this to time. And see what happens.
I had lots of friends from all over the world. Not just Korean. They are from China, Iran, Philippines, Thailand, Taiwan... all over the world. We are still talking with some of them. It has been a nice experience, but I was always remembering about the story when I had a new friend, I was asking to Koreans and they were saying "I am busy", "My English is not good". But one of the first friends I had said "OK, might be". She was in high-school. She was struggling with exams and getting ready to enter a university. I didn't want to remind that to her again and we became friends. We even sent snail mails each other :D, it was cool . And couple of days ago she said she is not studying for university exam, she was going to enter a foreign university and she needed to study English for it.
And yes, I asked her again to translate it. She said “OK”. She sent me the translation in 1 hour. And finally, I was ready to start this thread...
Right now, looking 1 year back, it was such a nice experience. Considering ‘1 chapter per year’ translation speed, it is not a good progress :D but at least with this way this thread which keeps going since 2006 might come to an end.
Beyond all this, you don’t have to read or appreciate any of the things I wrote. I just wrote this to express myself. Thanks for reading anyway. And enjoy reading the new chapter and don’t forget to reply, I will try to make other chapters translated as soon as possible, thanks to all friends who have helped me and will help :).
I don’t have internet in my house right now. I will go to my friends’ and upload this from there. So if you are reading this, I succeeded to start this thread in 27th July, the 13th anniversary of the movie :)
Chapter 27 (translated by Yehjee)
Rrrrrrr.. (Telephone ringing)
Gyeon woo : Hello?
She : Where are you?
G : Home.
S : I am going to go to drivers' lesson, go with me.
G : I don’t want to.
S : You wanna die?
G : Why do you always threaten to kill me? I can say a word too then.
S : What? What do you wanna say?
G : Where should I go? -_-
So I went to drivers' lesson with her as usual. And there was the teacher turning his face away from me. And then he asked me something,
Teacher : Do you have a driver's license?
G : Me? Nope.
T : Really?
And then he whispered her something after confirming that I didn’t have a driver's license. And she came to me and said,
S : Hey, Gyeonwoo. He said he can teach you how to drive too.
OH YESS ! It must be true that he's teaching me how to drive coz I'm handsome. (Sorry)
Anyway it was so great to learn driving in free of charge because it costs too much to learn driving these days !!
Finally it was time for her to get into the car. I was just standing alone. But.. she called me fastening her seat belt.
S : Gyeonwoo, come quickly !
I became uneasy......
S : What are you doing? Get into the car right now!
Urrrrrgh.. it wasn’t that he was teaching me how to drive but meant that just pick up learning in the back seat of the car. What the hell....
Isn’t this illegal? It could not be possible for 'civilian' not a teacher to take the car while unlicensed person was driving.
Just watching her driving from outside seemed so risky but.. you mean I get in to that car?!
I am not crazy!
I didn’t wanna live that long but this would send me to an early grave.
I asked for help while eye-contacting with the teacher.
G : ('^^) (You're kidding, right?)
T : (-_*;) (Get into the car right now!)
S : (-_*;) (Get into the car right now!)
He was in the same side of her..
G : I don’t wanna learn how to drive..
T : Don’t hesitate, just come in. That car in the back is waiting for us.
S : Hurry!
G : T_T
I sat on the back seat. There were no seat belts.. omg
Why are there no seat belts in the back seat! I grabbed the handle on the window with my two hands. Very strongly.
I straighten my legs and fixed them on the front seat.
The teacher told her to start the engine and she did. And then he explained her something like how to use gear but I couldn’t hear them. I could've almost dead.
The car started to move slowly and my face took on a set expression.
I prayed to God.
'I’m sorry, I am so sorry!!!!! Send help please'
Kkeeeeeeeeek (screeching sound)
T : Ahhhhhhhhhhhhk !!!
G : Aaahhhhhhhhkkkk !!!!!!!!!! Ahhhhhk !
S : Oh my god.
She raised the speed and stopped suddenly.
S : Oh, I’m sorry.
T : What the hell are you doing?!
G : Hey, are you crazy??
S : You be quiet.
G : Okay..
But I was alive because I was holding the handle very very strongly. But I feel stiff in the backside of the neck.
Anyway the game of the death was finally over.
T : Hey, don’t come to the lesson anymore if you are gonna do like this next time too. I'll give you a refund.
S : Sorry, sir.
G : Please give us a refund, please !
I was so tired that just fell asleep when I got back home.
And then, next morning I woke up and noticed that my neck didn't move.
What the heck!! I called her.
G : Hey you !! My neck is not moving 'cause....
S : You're going to the lesson with me today, right?
G : ...... -_- I shouldn't have called her.
On the way of meeting her, I dropped by the pharmacy and put a medicated patch on my neck.
She came noticing me and.. she had something white on her neck too.
Oh, yes. There was also a patch on her neck !!! Oh yeah. HAHA
G : What's that on your neck?
S : What about yours?
G : Are you really asking me?
S : Hahaha
And then we went to the drivers' lesson together. The teacher was there as usual.
G&S : Hi !
T : ...............
S : -_-;
G : What's that on your neck ?? No way!
Yes it was. He had a patch on this neck too.
After that day, we became a 'patch trio'....
Patch trio............................
End !!!!!!!!!!!!
