1
Minji!
2
My mom is here!
3
You're here!
4
Hello, ma'am.
5
Oh, Jadu is here with you.
6
Have some of this with us.
7
Wow, thank you!
8
Huh?
9
Wow!
10
Hi, I'm home.
11
I told you to come home early,
12
but look at the time!
13
Just in time for dinner!
14
Hey, Mom?
15
How come you're not wearing your wedding ring?
16
What in the world are you talking about?
17
Why would you mention my wedding ring?
18
Oh, well, I saw Minji's mom wearing a ring,
19
and I thought it was really pretty.
20
She said it was her wedding ring.
21
How come you don't wear a ring, Mom?
22
Didn't you say you have a ring to pass down to me?
23
That belongs to your grandma.
24
I sold my own wedding ring a long time ago.
25
Huh?
26
Why did you sell your wedding ring?
27
Listen, jewelry is supposed to be sold when something urgent comes up.
28
Something urgent?
29
For crying out loud, what's with you today?
30
Go wash your hands so we can have dinner.
31
Jeez.
32
Okay.
33
Okay.
34
Honey!
35
Kids!
36
Welcome home, Dad!
37
Good to see you, my sweeties!
38
Oh, my!
39
You're home early today without having any drinks.
40
This is for you.
41
Huh?
42
What's this?
43
Hmm?
44
Wow!
45
Try it on!
46
My goodness!
47
Wow!
48
It's a ring that fits Mom's chubby finger!
49
Ahem.
50
I bought it so that you'll wear it for a long time.
51
Oh, my.
52
Hmm?
53
Where did you get the money to buy a ring?
54
Tell me!
55
Honey, did you have an emergency fund stashed away somewhere?
56
Oh, no!
57
That's...
58
Forget it.
59
I'll make a quick stop at the grocery store, so wait for me.
60
I cooked better side dishes for us.
61
Dig in, everyone.
62
Dad!
63
Why, Diamond, it's like you're good fish next time!
64
Hmm?
65
She must be really happy with that ring.
66
Huh?
67
Mom, why did you take off your ring?
68
It's too valuable.
69
I certainly don't want to get a scratch on it while I'm doing the dishes.
70
I'll wear it for special occasions.
71
I've been waiting for you, my prince.
72
Please place the ring on my finger.
73
That won't work, you witch with funny hair.
74
Take this!
75
One ring laser!
76
To do!
77
I said let's be Sapphire Princess!
78
When did I agree to that?
79
Anyway, it's not easy to pretend a toy ring is a real ring.
80
Oh, that's right!
81
Mimi, how about we try Mom's ring on?
82
Mom's jewelry?
83
Where did she put it?
84
Here it is.
85
Oh, my precious.
86
My friends, please place that ring on my finger.
87
The one ring is mine.
88
Oh, come on.
89
You're ruining the thing.
90
Get over.
91
Oh, no!
92
Super glue.
93
Tweezers.
94
Phew, it's a success.
95
I'll carefully put it back.
96
Mimi, if you ever tell Mom about this, we're both doomed.
97
Got it?
98
Minji, want me to push you up to the sky?
99
Or how about up to space?
100
Shadu, don't push too hard!
101
Alright, let's push that!
102
Shadu...
103
Ow, watch out!
104
Oh my, just look at you!
105
Why were you even standing there?
106
Because I was pushing the swing!
107
Because she was pushing the swing.
108
What?
109
Unbelievable.
110
Let's go to the dentist right now.
111
Oh, I can't do anything about this.
112
She needs to get new teeth.
113
What?
114
They're front teeth, so you should get proper ones.
115
Here's the estimated price.
116
Right.
117
I understand.
118
We'll come back tomorrow.
119
Welcome home.
120
Hi, kids.
121
Mom, why are you taking that out?
122
You said it's just for special occasion.
123
Today's a special occasion.
124
The day your front teeth broke.
125
Mom, where are you going?
126
Huh?
127
Mom, wait a minute.
128
Are you going to sell the ring?
129
No, don't sell it, Mom!
130
I told you!
131
Jewelry needs to be sold when something comes up!
132
I'm so dead!
133
Mom!
134
Ma'am, I'm afraid this is a replica.
135
Huh?
136
This is obviously a replica.
137
Even the plating here has been scratched off.
138
Aaaaaaah!
139
Shh, shh, shh.
140
Mom, were all of the urgent occasions because of us?
141
Jadu, just go home without me.
142
Uh, where are you going now?
143
Mom?
144
Shadu, what happened?
145
Did we get caught for breaking the ring?
146
It doesn't matter.
147
Mom, I'm sorry.
148
I'll pay you back for everything when I grow old.
149
Wow, that's amazing!
150
They look exactly like my own teeth!
151
If you get your teeth broken again,
152
you can just live without them like a grandma.
153
What do you mean?
154
Grandma's teeth are fine.
155
Yours are expensive, so treat them well.
156
But Mom, how could you pay for my teeth if you couldn't sell the ring?
157
By closing our savings account.
158
Savings account?
159
Why did you close that?
160
Do they even accept closed things?
161
Just forget about it.
162
Why?
163
What is it?
164
Let's have dinner.
165
Mom, you said the ring is fake.
166
Why are you wearing it?
167
It's better that it's fake.
168
You can wear it like this without any worries.
169
Yeah, right?
170
If it were expensive, you would have gone and sold it again,
171
much less wear it.
172
Mom, when I grow up,
173
I'll get your real jeweled ring.
174
Just wait a bit.
175
Wow.
176
I'm grateful to even hear that.
177
I really mean it, Mom.
178
Okay, then get me one the size of my fist.
179
Until then, I'm more than happy with this.
180
Huh?
181
Huh?
182
Wait, this seems like it was super glued.
183
No, no, it isn't, honey.
184
It wasn't like that when I bought it.
185
Troublemaker, if you were buying a replica,
186
you should have at least picked a fine one.

Wat is de Shadowing-techniek?

Shadowing is een wetenschappelijk onderbouwde taalleermethode die oorspronkelijk is ontwikkeld voor professionele tolkentraining en gepopulariseerd door polyglot Dr. Alexander Arguelles. De methode is eenvoudig maar krachtig: je luistert naar native Engelse audio en herhaalt het onmiddellijk hardop — als een schaduw die de spreker volgt met slechts 1–2 seconden vertraging. In tegenstelling tot passief luisteren of grammaticadrills, dwingt shadowing je hersenen en mondspieren om echte spraakpatronen tegelijkertijd te verwerken en te reproduceren. Onderzoek toont aan dat het de uitspraaknauwkeurigheid, intonatie, ritme, verbonden spraak, luisterbegrip en spreekvaardigheid aanzienlijk verbetert — waardoor het een van de meest effectieve methoden is voor IELTS Speaking-voorbereiding en echte Engelse communicatie.
