허리띠를 졸라매다 tighten one’s belt
A: 장사는 좀 돼요?
How's your business doing?
B: IMF때보다 더 안 돼.
It's even worse than during the IMF crisis.
아무리 싸게 팔아도 사람들이 돈을 쓰질 않아.
No matter how much I cut the prices, people aren't spending.
A: 큰일이네요. 다들 허리띠를 졸라매서 그런가 봐요.
That's worrying. I guess people are tightening their belts. |

유학 (Studying Abroad) |
|
|
한국에서는 유학 다녀온 사람들은 더 나은 직장을 얻는다고 하던데요?
I've heard that students who have studied overseas land better jobs in Korea. |
|
|
옛날 얘기죠.
That may have been true in the past. |
|
|
해외유학 한 게 여전히 강점이 되는 분야가 있긴 하죠.
And for certain fields, it's always an advantage to get an overseas education. |
