Fluent Fiction - Korean: The Deception of Taste: Conquering Spiciness to Find Courage Find the full episode transcript, vocabulary words, and more:fluentfiction.org/the-deception-of-taste-conquering-spiciness-to-find-courage Story Transcript:Ko: 사랑스러운 표정을 짓고 지원은 한 개미 한 마리도 찾아볼 수 없는 광활한 전통 한식당에 입장했다. 밖에서 불어오는 가을 바람과 함께 푸짐한 반찬들의 알싸한 김치 냄새가 코끝을 자극했다. 수줍은 미소를 띄며, 지원은 서진과 민지, 자신의 친구들을 안내했다.En: With an adorable expression, Ji-won entered a vast traditional Korean restaurant where not even a single ant could be found. Along with the autumn wind blowing from outside, the savory aroma of abundant side dishes, particularly the pungent smell of kimchi, tickled his nostrils. With a shy smile, Ji-won guided his friends Seo-jin and Min-ji.Ko: 모든 것이 고요할 때, 지원은 자신의 앞에 있는 김치를 집었다. 그는 입안에 김치를 담아서 웃음을 혼자 남기며, 그 맛이 상큼할 줄 알았다. 그러나 즉시 그의 얼굴은 놀라움으로 변했다. 미묘한 단맛 대신, 김치에서는 예상치 못했던 맵기가 입안을 침략했다.En: When everything was calm, Ji-won picked up the kimchi in front of him. He expected it to have a refreshing taste as he put the kimchi into his mouth and chuckled to himself. However, his expression immediately turned to astonishment. Instead of a subtle sweetness, an unexpected spiciness invaded his mouth.Ko: 서진과 민지는 지원의 변색된 표정에 대한 웃음을 참을 수 없었다. 지원은 얼굴을 찡그리며 물병을 잡아든다. 그의 갑작스런 반응에 둘은 빵터졌다. 하지만, 지원의 눈에서는 익살스럽게도 고집스런 불꽃이 빛났다.En: Seo-jin and Min-ji couldn't help but burst into laughter at Ji-won's change in expression. Ji-won grabbed the water bottle, his sudden reaction causing them to startle. However, mischief sparkled in Ji-won's eyes.Ko: 그는 매운 맛에 놀라긴 했지만, 얼굴 끝이 다시 붉어지며 매운 김치를 다시 집어올렸다. 뜨겁고 알싸한 그 맛을 아무렇지 않은 듯 먹었지만 땀은 이마에 줄기차게 흘렀다. 서진과 민지는 지원이 매운 김치를 다루는 것을 보며 더 크게 웃었다.En: Although he was surprised by the spiciness, his face turned red and he picked up another bite of spicy kimchi. He casually ate the hot and savory taste as if it was nothing, but sweat streamed down his forehead. Seo-jin and Min-ji laughed louder as they watched Ji-won handle the spicy kimchi.Ko: 그러나 지원은 결국 그 매운 맛을 이겼다. 그것은 고생이었지만, 그렇게 한 그릇의 김치를 비웠다. 서진과 민지는 그런 지원을 보고 뭔가 존경의 눈길을 보냈다. 그들은 그의 익살스러움 뒤에 숨겨진 그의 끈기와 용기를 볼 수 있었다.En: However, Ji-won eventually conquered the spiciness. It was a struggle, but he finished that plate of kimchi. Seo-jin and Min-ji sent a gaze of admiration towards Ji-won. They could see his determination and courage hidden behind his mischief.Ko: 이야기가 끝날 때, 지원은 아직도 웃음을 잃지 않았다. 그의 입맛은 아직 그 매운 김치의 맛을 기억하고 있었다. 그리고 그는 그것을 영원히 잊지 않을 것이다. 그러나 그것은 그를 더 강인하게 만들었다는 것을 그는 알았다. 그는 그 짧은 시간 동안 얼마나 많은 것을 배웠는지 깨닫게 되었다. 그의 이야기는 여전히 그의 두 친구의 웃음 소리와 함께 그 광활한 한식당에 울려 퍼졌다.En: As the story came to an end, Ji-won still hadn't lost his laughter. His taste buds still remembered the taste of that spicy kimchi. And he knew he would never forget it. But, he also knew that it made him stronger. In that short time, he realized how much he had learned. His story continued to echo in that vast Korean restaurant, accompanied by the laughter of his two friends.Ko: "그래, 이것이 바로 내 이야기야. 오늘 난 무언가를 이겼어. 그것은 매운 맛이었지만, 나를 더 강하게 만들어줬어. 그래서 나는 웃고, 그 맛을 기억할 거야."En: "Yeah, this is my story. Today, I conquered something. It was the taste of spiciness, but it made me stronger. So, I will laugh and remember that taste."Ko: 지원의 이야기는 요령있게 매운 맛에 대한 고군분투를 다룬 것이지만, 그것은 또한 우리가 각자의 삶을 살아가는 과정에서 부딪히게 되는 여러 도전에 맞서는 용기와 끈기에 대한 이야기이기도 했다. 우리 모두가 지원처럼 어떤 도전을 겪든 간에, 고군분투하고, 극복하고, 결국에는 그것을 딛고 웃을 수 있길 바란다.En: Ji-won's story skillfully portrayed the struggle against spiciness, but it was also a story of courage and perseverance that we all face in the challenges of our own lives. Like Ji-won, may we all face any challenge, struggle through it, overcome it, and eventually be able to laugh about it.

Spiciness and depth, with good acidity Key Areas Burgenland: Center of red wine culture in Austria Südburgenland:majority are hobby winemakers, or supplement their income with another job or profession, wines sold in Buschenschank (local taverns) Eisenberg DACis fantastic for lighter style Blaufränkisch with mineral notes Leithaberg DAC–cooler sites away from lake. Often blends of Blaufränkisch with up to 15% Zweigelt, St. Laurent. Fuller bodied with mineral notes. Neusiedlersee: Near Lake Neusiedl. Styles range from unoaked and fruity to oak aged and big, can be blended Niederösterreich, Carnuntum: Aromatic, dark berry notes, peppery spice, licorice and tar with bright freshness Vineyards in three principal hilltops south of the Danube Hot summers and cold winters, an influence that in combination with the moderating effects of the nearby Danube and (Lake Neusiedl) ripen grapes   St. Laurent Origin: From Niederösterreich. Name probably refers to St. Lawrence whose Saint’s day falls on 10 August, when variety veraison begins. In the vineyard: mid-ripening, needs deep soils or irritgation or at risk from late frosts, can develop rot in the fall – very finicky. Low/erratic yields. Can be delicious, ripens earlier than Pinot Noir, can grow on more diverse sites than Pinot – better grape for growers Flavors: Aromatic, velvety/silky, good color, good tannin with sour or dark cherry, blackberry, smoke and black pepper spice. Like a powerful Pinot Key Areas: Mostly SE of Vienna in Burgenland’s Neusiedlersee Thermenregion: Name from thermal, sulphuric water springs. Cistercian monks revitalised viticulture during the Middle Ages West of Vienna in Weinvertel – large region   Zweigelt Origin: 1922 at the Teaching and Research Centre for Viticulture and Horticulture (LFZ) in Klosterneuburg. Cross of Blaufränkisch x St. Laurent. Grandchild of Gouais Blanc and Pinot (like Burgundy) Most widespread red in Austria, in all wine-producing regions In the vineyard: Early budding, earlier ripening than Blaufrankisch, yields are high, have to manage vigor. Demands little from the soil Flavors: Spiced cherry and raspberry withexotic spice, floral notes, and cinnamon.Can be early-drinking with no oak OR stronger wines from barrel aging Can be blended -- with Cabernet and Merlot or with Blaufränkisch and St. Laurent Can be like Beaujolais. Style depends on yield and vinification: bigger yields, simple; low yields -- full-bodied, can age Key Areas: Mostly Niederosterreich -- Kamptal is very good, marketed under the designation of "Niederösterreich". In Weinviertel north of Vienna Best wines from Neusiedlersee, Burgenland: reflects the region's climate and soil Pinot Noir One to watch.

My perpetually tricky friend told me that while she was walking through town she saw four particularly vibrant houses. There was an auburn one, a brick one, a cherry one, and one the shade of dogwood rose. She wanted me to figure out the order of the houses. She said that the the auburn came before the the brick one while the cherry one came before the dogwood rose, but the cherry and the dogwood rose were not adjacent. I told her that she hadn’t given me enough information, so she just laughed and told me that she could tell me the color of the first one or the color of the last one, but it wouldn’t help if she did either one. // What color was the second house? // Spiciness: *** out of **** // Note: Not having paper makes this one especially difficult.

A friend of mine told me that she can walk a mile south, a mile east, a mile north and end up back home. I first thought she lived at the north pole, but she laughed and told me that, since there was no land there, she would be unable to make the walk. She asked me to try again, so I thought for a few minutes before finally saying that I knew how to get within a few minutes of her house, but couldn’t give her an exact location. // Where does she live? // Spiciness: * out of ****

Working alone, I put two coats of paint on a wall, one before lunch and one after. Yesterday, I began at the usual time. Two hours before lunch I was joined by my good friend Aidan, who paints at the rate of 600 sqft per workday, and who left just as the first coat was finished. I promptly began the second coat, and had lunch at the usual time. One hour before quitting time, I had painted a second coat everywhere except where Aidan had painted that morning. If we each have the same workday, and if each of us works at a constant rate (albeit not necessarily the same rate as the other), what was the area of the wall? // Spiciness: *** out of ****

Earlier this week I was rob...er...exploring tombs and I accidently triggered a trap that locked me in a room. With me are a pair of plates, a few thousand tiny statues of gnats and a puzzle that should lead to my escape. I need to place specific numbers of gnats onto each of the two plates. The number of gnats on the left plate needs to be a 3-digit palindrome, while the number on the right needs to be a 4-digit palindrome, with a difference between them of 22. I remember that a palindromic number is one where if you read it forwards and backwards, it looks the same. For example, 43534 and 5885 are both palindromes. // Please send in solutions; I want to get out of here. // Spiciness: ** out of ****

For years you were a lonely prisoner here. But earlier today, you were brought to a courtyard to join the others, where you are all addressed by the Warden. There have been budget cuts, he explains, and the one hundred of you need to leave this facility. Whether you will be sent to another high-security facility, or set free, depends on whether you pass the following test of cleverness and teamwork. // There is a secret room not far from here, and like your individual cells, it is soundproof, lightproof, and in all other ways impervious to communication. The only object in this room is a single light switch, not connected to anything. It is currently in the off position. // In an hour, you will each be sent back to your cells. One of you will be selected at random to visit the room. While there, that prisoner may choose to flip the switch or not. No other actions will be permitted. Then another prisoner will be chosen at random. And again and again and again, over and over, always at random. // At any point, any of you may declare that all of you have visited the room. If the declaration is true, you will all go free. If not, then you will never again see the light of day. // You have one hour to formulate your strategy. // How will you arrange for everyone to go free? // Note: you have no idea how often prisoners will be sent to the room. Any solution whereby you try to “run out the clock” will be considered incorrect. A correct solution is one for which a declaration proves that all prisoners have visited the room at least once each. // Oh, one last thing: if it’s still not enough of a challenge for you, try solving the variant in which the switch starts in a random position. // (Spiciness: **** out of ****)

A friend of mine has pictures of his three daughters on his mantle. He took the pictures when each of the girls was a particularly adorable age — the same age for all three of them, as it happens. Unfortunately, this made it impossible for me to determine which was the oldest. So I had to ask him. Since my friend is a puzzle junkie, however, he declined to answer directly, telling me only that the product of their current ages was 72. “However,” he added, “since that isn’t enough information to determine their ages, I’ll also tell you that the sum of their ages happens also to be the number of our street address.” (Of course, I understood that each daughter’s age was to be considered a whole number for purposes of this puzzle.) I darted outside to check the number on his mailbox. I was daunted to discover that I still didn’t have enough information to determine their ages, and I returned to tell him so. “That is an astute observation,” he said, smiling. “So you’ll be glad to know that my oldest daughter prefers strawberry ice cream.” Finally! I knew their ages. Do you? // Spiciness: *** out of ****
