English to Korean: subtitling General field: Other
Source text - English There was no one like Hal. He met me at a party and swept me off my feet. Blue Moon was the song was playing. Do you know "Blue Moon?" Sure. I still remember that. blue moon And one more year and I would have graduated. But I quit BU to marry him. I mean, what was I learning at school anyway? I mean, can you picture me as an anthropologist? Is that a joke? The sex was always great. Well, he was nine years older than me. He'd already made and lost a fortune. But then he made it back, and more. God, he was dynamic. Taught me everything I know about real lovemaking, not that I care to get too graphic. Believe me when I tell you. They tried six medications on me. Cocktails, they call them. The only cocktail that helped was a Stoli martini. I never trusted doctors. Doctors put both my parents in early graves. I have never been to San Francisco. And Hal and I traveled everywhere. I hear it's beautiful. I'll be staying with my sister, Ginger. She's divorced.Biologically, she's not my sister. She's adopted. We're both adopted. I couldn't stand her ex-husband. He used to hit her. That's mine. The Vuitton. My plan is to start a new life out here. Hm. Put everything behind me and start fresh. Go West. Was it Horace Greeley who said that? Go West.Oh, there's my family. It was really nice talking to you. Oh, I'll call you, maybe for lunch. I don't have your number. Who's that woman you were talking to? I was sitting next to her on the plane. She was talking to herself. I thought she said something to me.I said, "What?" But she couldn't stop babbling about her life. () Where--? Where am I exactly? You said 305 South Van Ness. Can you wait, help me with my bags?\|Sure I don't know where she is. She expected me. The plane was on time. Yes, I'm-- I'm-- You all right? I'm fine. I just sometimes get where I can't take a deep breath and when I can, it makes me panic and it makes it even worse. Okay. Could I have some privacy? Sure, sure. Hello, Ginger? Yes, I'm here.I'm right in front of the place. It is 305? Uh-huh. Ugh. Well, how long? What? Where is it? No, no, I see it. Okay. Oh, okay. Just-- Would you please hurry? My sister left the keys in the bar. Can you wait? Sure. Is that it? Thank you. Oh, thank you. Have a great day, all right? Bye-bye. So, what do you think? I love it. I made sure all the fireplaces work. I don't like when they're for show. It's so light and airy and the ceilings are so high. I don't know How can anyone breathe with a low ceiling? The view. You wanted Fifth Avenue.\| Central Park. Superb. Oh, this space is perfect. We hardly have to do a thing. You shouldn't spoil me so. Well, why not? Who else am I gonna spoil? Besides, Did I tell you my news? What? Danny is gonna be living with us permanently. Oh, honey. Oh, that's great news. I worked it out with his mom, her lawyers. Oh, he'll be so much happier when he's with us full-time.
