11
Where did she go without her daughter?
12
Hey, Mom!
13
What's going on?
14
Do you know how long I've been waiting in front of the gate, huh, do you?
15
It's been over three hours!
16
It took less than half an hour.
17
Mimi got here early.
18
I bought clothes for her and Baby while I was out.
19
It's just 30 minutes for you, but it felt like three hours for me!
20
Oh well, you should have come when Mimi came over.
21
You were late because you were playing.
22
How are you gonna make up for my golden time?
23
Oh my word.
24
Hey, Jadoo!
25
What?
26
I forgot to buy bean sprouts.
27
You go get some, please.
28
Hello, guys.
29
Hi, everybody.
30
No way!
31
Sorry, but that was your fault.
32
I have to watch this now!
33
It's a very, very special episode today.
34
We'll present you the special show...
35
I need to prepare dinner right now.
36
That is why I'm asking you to go.
37
Hey, you, Mimi, you go get it.
38
Wait, but I don't want to go.
39
Mimi is still new to math.
40
She cannot calculate the change.
41
That is why you are going. So unfair.
42
You've got plenty time to finish watching that later.
43
Now you listen to me, young lady.
44
Don't you want to have dinner?
45
Alright!
46
Give me the money!
47
I'm in a hurry!
48
You better start learning your times tables!
49
I need to hurry back so I can finish watching TV!
50
Until this...
51
Please, please, please, please, please!
52
Please don't end the show!
53
Can I get some bean sprouts?
54
Oh no!
55
I held my breath in bed so hard!
56
I have to stop watching my favorite TV show to get here in time!
57
Stop me!
58
This is all Mom's fault!
59
That's the house for today.
60
Oh, my goodness.
61
I said it was going to rain today.
62
Why didn't you take your umbrella?
63
You didn't tell me to take the umbrella.
64
And the bean sprouts?
65
The shop wasn't open today.
66
You didn't even know it was closed?
67
Oh, it was?
68
Well, then we can't help it.
69
All right, take off your wet clothes, and let's have dinner!
70
All right, friends, I'm sorry, but it's time to say goodbye!
71
See you next week!
72
Bye -bye! Is it really over?
73
Hey, guys!
74
Dinner's ready!
75
Yay! Is it really over?
76
It was a special episode that wasn't good at many reruns!
77
Am I supposed to wait until next week?
78
Here we go.
79
This happened because of Mom!
80
I'll never listen to her ever again!
81
I would rather change my name than do what she says!
82
I'll never, ever, ever, ever listen to her again!
83
Why do I have to do everything she says always?
84
What is that?
85
I can hear someone crying.
86
Mimi, is Ja -Doo crying?
87
I'm not sure.
88
Maybe.
89
Ja -Doo, why are you so moody?
90
Oh, don't tell me that you're upset right now.
91
Guys, just enjoy your meal.
92
Wow, it's good.
93
Try this, Ja -Doo.
94
It's exactly how you like it.
95
Mm.
96
Jadu, have some side dishes.
97
I don't eat side dishes.
98
If you eat so fast, you're going to choke.
99
Drink some water as well.
100
I don't drink water.
101
Your hair's still wet from the rain, Jadu.
102
Dry it with a hair dryer.
103
My hair is fine!
104
I can't listen to Mom ever, ever, ever.
105
Oh, wow.
106
Are you studying, Jadu?
107
No, I'm not.
108
Where are you going then?
109
To the bathroom.
110
When you're done, make sure to turn off the light.
111
I'm not going anymore.
112
Well, so then, what are you doing?
113
I'm not doing anything.
114
Fine, don't do anything then.
115
No, I'm gonna dance and play from now on!
116
Mom, I'm sleepy.
117
Alright, let's go to bed, children.
118
Goodnight, sweet dreams.
119
You should go to bed too, Jadoo.
120
I'm not going.
121
Fine, stand in the cold living room for all I care.
122
No, I'm going to my room, but I'll never go to sleep again.
123
JaDoo must be really angry today.
124
Don't mind her tantrums.
125
She'll give up soon.
126
I'm not.
127
I'm not going to sleep.
128
Mom thinks I'm going to give up soon.
129
Never, ever, I'm not listening to Mom.
130
Ah, it's raining and chilly, no one's around.
131
It's the perfect night to work on.
132
Huh?
133
Did you say something?
134
I'm sorry, I farted a little.
135
That's a huge radish.
136
I'll cook this on the grill later.
137
I'll have a barbecue to celebrate.
138
Ah, it's a cheap picture.
139
I don't think there's anything good here.
140
Phew.
141
Luckily, he didn't see me.
142
Yeah, I've got the best hiding skills in the world.
143
Huh?
144
What in the...
145
Honey, this time I really heard something.
146
It's not me this time.
147
I heard a thump outside, darling.
148
What?
149
A thump outside? Who are you?
150
I'm never gonna sleep.
151
I'm not gonna listen.
152
Don't do that.
153
Children should go to bed early.
154
You should never scare an adult like this.
155
No, I'll never sleep.
156
Are you talking in your sleep?
157
Is that it?
158
I think it's really a thief, honey.
159
What do we do now?
160
Shhh.
161
Yeah, I got it.
162
There's no way a kid would be up at this time.
163
You scared me for nothing, kid.
164
I'm not...
165
I'm not sleeping.
166
I'm not sleeping.
167
Stop telling me you're not sleeping!
168
It's a thief!
169
It's a thief!
170
Freeze!
171
No, you're right, I'm a thief, but I haven't stolen anything yet!
172
Someone say thief!
173
Are you still up to do?
174
I told you already, I won't sleep again!
175
Never ever!
176
Are you still playing this game?
177
We have a thief!
178
What if you're in trouble?
179
What a thief?
180
Wha?
181
He's a real thief?
182
She wasn't sleeping.
183
She caught me.
184
I've been a thief for ten years.
185
How could I be caught by a little girl?
186
I don't care whether the thief broke in or not.
187
Let him take everything, even my pillow.
188
Wow!
189
She's so generous!
190
Are you out of your minds?
191
A thief who steals things is much better than a mom who doesn't care about her daughter!
192
I hate you so much, I hate you!
193
Both are neck and neck.
194
It's tight.
195
Are you really gonna do whatever you want?
196
You're not going to listen to me?
197
Whenever I do, you upset me, so I'm gonna do whatever I want!
198
Uh, excuse me, it must be getting pretty late, so now I'm leaving!
199
What is it?
200
What are you doing?
201
Please take me with you!
202
Shadu!
203
You come over here right now!
204
I'm figuring this out amongst yourselves!
205
Ah, whatever!
206
Please let go of me!
207
Kids have to listen to their mothers!
208
You don't know anything about my life!
209
Ah, you're so annoying!
210
Phew, alright, let's go, okay?
211
Hello child, yay!
212
Give me back my daughter!
213
Give us back our daughter, please!
214
So tell me, is this radish everything you've lost?
215
What?
216
Yeah, I guess so.
217
Thank you for all of your help, Officer.
218
Thanks to your brave daughter, I was able to catch the thief easily.
219
He's been robbing the houses around this neighborhood for the past few weeks.
220
Is that right?
221
Oh, I'm so glad he was caught.
222
By the way, where's Jadu?
223
Beats me!
224
You are so stubborn.
225
You don't want my side dishes anymore?
226
Tattoo!
227
You still there?
228
I can't stand anymore!
229
I knew you'd be constipated because you only ate the rice!
230
No more side dishes!
231
You should go to the hospital with Mom!
232
No, I'm not going anywhere!
233
Even if I won't listen to Mom, I think I should still eat vegetables.
234
I mean, this constipation is just...
235
Brush your teeth, you two.
236
Every nook and cranny.
237
Yes, Mom.
238
Choy -ja -doo!
239
Come here and brush your teeth.
240
Huh?
241
Oh my, what's going on?
242
Oh my goodness, what's all the fuss about?
243
Uh, well, it's, uh...
244
What the heck is this?
245
The fruit of the core!
246
Why are you just standing there?
247
Go get the mop right now!
248
Okay!
249
Why am I the only one mopping this up right now?
250
This is so frustrating!
251
Do you know how expensive it is?
252
Uh -oh!
253
Dad?
254
Hold on, Mom!
255
It's not my fault!
256
It fell off when I took out the mop, I swear!
257
Does it have feet on it?
258
How can it fall down?
259
Mom, believe me!
260
I just tried to take off the pop, that's all!
261
Hey, Darymimi, did you see that?
262
Yeah?
263
Do you think Juju's back will be okay?
264
Dullery!
265
Her back is way strong.
266
It happens all the time.
267
Wow!
268
It's so sweet!
269
I'll save it for now and eat it later!
270
Hey, Mimmy!
271
Can I have one?
272
Not this one!
273
I haven't even tasted it yet!
274
Shhh!
275
Let me look at it then!
276
I'll give it right back to you!
277
Okay, then.
278
Just take a little look.
279
Hey, it's so pretty.
280
Can I take it out to look?
281
Sorry, I'll put them right back.
282
My grand chocolate.
283
Have you ever heard of it?
284
About Juju's cursed hand.
285
A cursed hand?
286
That's right, her cursed hand.
287
The incredibly cursed hand of Jadu.
288
Every single thing you touch always breaks you naughty girl!
289
Hey, Mom!
290
Oh, Mimi!
291
You stepped on the broken pieces!
292
Oh no, Mimi!
293
Enough!
294
Sit here and think about what you did!
295
No, Mom, please!
296
Can't I reflect in the bedroom?
297
It's golden here!
298
She still doesn't feel sorry, can you believe that?
299
You know, Mom, it doesn't hurt that much.
300
And I'm supposed to play with Jadu later today.
301
What?
302
How can you say you want to play with her at a time like this, child?
303
Mommy!
304
Oh, Jadu.
305
Oh, my God.
306
Jadu, I brought one of my stuffed dolls.
307
Hold it tight.
308
It'll keep you warm.
309
Go away before
310
Mom finds you.
311
It's all right.
312
Mom went to the supermarket.
313
Choi, Mimi!
314
I've warned you before, haven't I, child?
315
But wait, Mom!
316
I'll give this doll to her, but don't you come near this place again. But Mom?
317
I'm terribly bored without you, do.
318
Hey, sis, let's each get one.
319
Hold on.
320
Isn't this supposed to be between friends?
321
Exactly.
322
We're sisters and we're friends.
323
Wow, it's pretty.
324
Wow!
325
It's snowing!
326
It's snowing outside!
327
Let's build a snowman and play together!
328
Just cool before
329
Mom finds you.
330
But Mom's not home!
331
She's out with Dad and said they'd be home late!
332
If that's true, let's go!
333
Huh?
334
Naruchi!
335
We need all the help we can get!
336
Hey, sis!
337
Why don't we build a snowman's head?
338
No, we still have lots to go!
339
Wait!
340
What kind of snowman are you making?
341
A doldo snowman!
342
And to make his belly really fat, we need much more snow than this!
343
Yeah, let's make all the snowmen we want to make!
344
I'm so excited!
345
Wow, it's a work of art!
346
I wonder what I'll make next.
347
Me, me!
348
Hey, can you make me a snowman?
349
I wish I had a snowman that looked just like me.
350
Well, as you wish.
351
Mimi, how about I turn you into a snowman instead?
352
What did you say?
353
Mimi a snowman?
354
Mommy?
355
What's going on?
356
Why are you alone?
357
Where's Mimi?
358
Mimi went outside to play with Jadu in the snow.
359
What?!
360
Those naughty girls!
361
Hey Jadu!
362
Mimi!
363
Uh, don't worry.
364
Let them play.
365
Mimi!
366
Mom!
367
Dad!
368
Oh my word!
369
What's happened to you, Mimi?
370
What's going on?
371
Mommy!
372
Mimi wanted to be a snowman, so I made her one!
373
Dad, I look like a real snowman, don't I?
374
Wait.
375
Wait.
376
It's weird.
377
I can't feel my feet.
378
I feel kind of cold.
379
Honey, we have to do something.
380
Let's dig her out!
381
Oh, sweetheart, what do we do?
382
The snow must be frozen.
383
It isn't coming off.
384
Doctor, please see my daughter.
385
She's right here.
386
Look at her.
387
What the heck happened to her?
388
I didn't know it was that cold, Mom.
389
How could you not know it was that cold?
390
Honey, calm down.
391
You're right!
392
It's all my fault.
393
It happened because of me!
394
I am a really, really fat sister!
395
Choo -choo -choo!
396
I can't take it anymore.
397
I'm leaving for good.
398
Yes!
399
Here I stand now.
400
The gone world that locked me up.
401
If no one hurt me anymore.
402
Alright, this is great!
403
Come on, bring it on, Storm!
404
I don't need any rules!
405
I'm finally free!
406
I'm not afraid of the cold anymore!
407
Oh dear, thank the heavens the fever broke!
408
Wait, Mom, where's Chudu?
409
I haven't seen her since the morning, darling.
410
Chudu, where are you?
411
Sister!
412
This way.
413
You gotta do it this way.
414
Hey, guys!
415
Hold on a sec!
416
Have you seen my sister?
417
Chudu?
418
Sure have.
419
She went up the mountains alone right over there.
420
What?
421
You sure?
422
These are Choo -choo's footprints!
423
My hat is flying away!
424
Stop right there!
425
Oh!
426
Oh!
427
Oh!
428
Oh, Jidoo!
429
Huh?
430
What on earth are you doing here, Jidoo?
431
You must have gotten over your cold, so why'd you come over here?
432
Go back.
433
What's with the big igloo?
434
It's my brand spanking new home!
435
I think I'm gonna stay here forever.
436
What?
437
That's crazy!
438
There's nothing crazy about it.
439
Don't bother me.
440
Just go away, Shu.
441
Jadu, come on.
442
Let's go home before Mom worries.
443
No way.
444
I'm never going back.
445
I may be a bit lonely, but I feel right at home here.
446
Look, Jadu.
447
I brought these to share with my sister.
448
Wait.
449
What is that?
450
You are my sister and a really good friend as well.
451
So please come back with me.
452
Stop it!
453
Please go away already.
454
You don't know this yet, but you always get hurt when you play with me.
455
And just get you into trouble.
456
So please forget I'm sick.
457
Oh, Juju.
458
Good job, Jadu.
459
Now don't look back!
460
Sister?
461
I'm not going alone.
462
I'm going back with you.
463
Get out of my igloo right now!
464
Jadu, it's not your fault that you hurt me!
465
It's your cursed hand's fault!
466
My cursed hand's fault?
467
Ah!
468
Ah!
469
Ah!
470
Ah!
471
Ah!
472
Ah!
473
Ah!
474
I'm gonna wait until you get better.
475
Ah!
476
Ah! That is so yummy!
477
Why in the world did you follow her up there?
478
What does it matter now?
479
One more bite please, Mom.
480
Are you serious?
481
Stop eating!
482
Let's go outside.
483
Do you want to build a snowman?
484
Okay.
485
Fine.

What is the Shadowing Technique?
Shadowing is a science-backed language learning technique originally developed for professional interpreter training and popularized by polyglot Dr. Alexander Arguelles. The method is simple but powerful: you listen to native English audio and immediately repeat it out loud — like a shadow following the speaker with just a 1–2 second delay. Unlike passive listening or grammar drills, shadowing forces your brain and mouth muscles to simultaneously process and reproduce real speech patterns. Research shows it significantly improves pronunciation accuracy, intonation, rhythm, connected speech, listening comprehension, and speaking fluency — making it one of the most effective methods for IELTS Speaking preparation and real-world English communication.
