Dialogue

I can't believe it's already been a year.

Yeah I know. Time flew by so fast.

I wish we had more time here. ~했었더라면 좋았을텐데

Me too, but I'm also excited to see my family and friends again.

What are you going to do before you leave for Korea? ~로 떠나다.

Well, I'm going to eat everything that I can't have in Korea,

and then go to some places that I haven't been yet.

That's a good idea, tonight's party is going to be a lot of fun, too.

Yeah, I can't wait to see everyone at the party.

I'm going to miss everyone so much.

I now understand why my friends said I might cry.

Hopefully, some of us can visit you in Korea.

That'd be great, and you can show us how Korean people have a great time.

Awesome. I hope you all do. But, don't come during the winter,

I think the summer or fall is the best time.

A lot of people are out, and there are a lot of events going on.

Okay, I'll try to organize it with everyone. 

I guess there's no reason to be sad at the party now! ~할 필요가 없다.

Great! Hey, let's get going!

We're going to be late to our own farewell party!
