A wasted young life


(남편이 우체국에서 돌아온다.)

(Husband comes back from the post office.)
남편: 여보! 나 진짜 장난 아닌 거 봤어. 밖에 경찰차들이랑 구급차 와 있어. 그리고 헬리콥터도 있어!

Husband: Darling! You won't believe what I've seen. There are police cars and an ambulance outside. And even a helicopter!
부인: 오, 무슨 일인데요? 10분 전에 경찰 사이렌 소리 들었는데.

Wife: Oh, what happened? I heard police siren 10 minutes ago.
남편: 잘 모르겠는데 누가 절벽에서 떨어지거나 뛰어내렸나 봐.

Husband: I'm not sure but looks like somebody fell or jumped from the cliffs.
부인: 웬일이야. 확실해요?

Wife: Oh dear. Are you sure?
남편: 확실하진 않지만 누가 그렇게 얘기하더라고.

Husband: I'm not sure, but I talked to somebody who said so.
부인: 잠깐만요. 뉴스 좀 볼게요.

Wife: One moment, let me check the news.
(잠시 뒤에 부인이 http://bit.ly/2srDnsr 에서 뉴스를 찾아낸다.)

(A while later, the wife finds the news under http://bit.ly/2srDnsr)
부인: 어, 찾았어요. "한 남자가 Broadstairs 에 있는 18 미터 높이의 절벽에서 떨어졌다"고 써 있어요.

Wife: Oh, I've found it. It says "Man falls 60ft off cliff in Broadstairs".
남편: 살았대요?

Husband: Did he survive?
부인: 아니요. 구급 대원들이 살리려고 노력했지만 곧 사망으로 판정됐대요.

Wife: Afraid not. Paramedics tried to revive him, but he was pronounced dead shortly after.
남편: 너무 슬프다...

Husband: So sad...
부인: 그 사람이 20대나 30대 초반이었대요.

Wife: It says he was a man in his 20s or early 30s.
남편: 헛되이 버려진 젊은 인생이네!

Husband: A wasted young life!
부인: 진짜, 불쌍하다!

Wife: Yes, what a pity!
