Chapter 169

"What does 'hokkomman isibseoge' mean?"

The phrase "Honjeo Opseoye" is one of the more famous Jeju dialects.

It has also been introduced through various video media.

But the dialect that came up in the next question was something I had never heard before in my life.

"Ho, hokkomman?"

"What is that?"

"Siyoon hyu―, Siyoon, do you know this?"

Heo Yu-bin, who barely managed to stop himself from saying Hyung, looked at Kang Si-yoon, who had solved the first problem, with hopeful eyes.

However, Kang Si-yoon also shook his head while touching his forehead.

"I didn't see anything like that in the Jeju Island vlogs I watched."

"Guys, let's put our heads together and discuss this. You said the answer is in the problem, right?"

Chae Eun-gyu tried to utilize the power of collective intelligence, but Manager Hyung quickly stopped him by imposing a time limit.

"Okay, there are 10 seconds left! Anyone can guess, so try quickly."

"Wha, what should I do?"

"In times like this!"

While everyone was panicking about what to do, Kang Si-yoon suddenly turned his head and grabbed my shoulder.

"Do it, Karis!"

"What, all of a sudden?"

"Hurry up! You're really good at these things! I want to eat mackerel!"

Perhaps it's because of the quiz-solving skills I showed in <Idol Producing Simulation>.

Of course, I was confident in guessing people or proverbs, but I had no confidence in guessing a dialect that I am hearing for the first time in my life.......

'For a moment.'

A fact that I had momentarily forgotten came to mind.

The 'Foreign Language Magician' skill was said to clearly increase my understanding of all languages.

Of course, Korean will be included in all languages.

The Jeju dialect also belongs to the Korean language.

'Just a little. Just a little.......'

As I continued to repeat the words, something began to form in my head.

Since it is clear that the answer is in the question, it must have something to do with pronunciation.

If I think about it as much as possible, paying attention to consonants and vowels.......

"5, 4, 3!"

As the countdown began, I raised my hand and said the correct answer.

"Can you please wait a moment?"

[조금만 기다려 주세요? <jogeumman gidalyeo juseyo?>]

"Even if you ask him like that, I don't think he'll be able to give you more time―?"

"What do you mean, Siyoon?"

"Huh?"

I said again with a calm face.

"This is the correct answer. Please wait a moment."

"Hey, hey. It wasn't for nothing that Siyoon asked you to do this. Correct answer!"
