Ryan, your clothes are a little wet today? Did something happen?
Ah, I came outside this morning. Suddenly it started raining, so I was flustered.
Oh my! You didn't have an umbrella? Didn't you check the weather forecast this morning?
No, I didn't check. I left my umbrella at the front door at home.
Oh dear! You left your umbrella at home, so your clothes got all wet!
That's right. So today, I prepared Korean expressions to use on rainy days.
That's a really great topic! Let's look at 6 basic Korean expressions often used on rainy days.
Yes, today's most important key expression is 'I forgot my umbrella'.
Right! And in a moment, we will also share a fun story about convenience store vinyl umbrellas.
Wow, I'm really looking forward to it! Shall we start right now?
Yes, let's start with excitement! There are so many interesting expressions.
Ryan, when you left home this morning, how was the weather?
In the morning, there were many clouds in the sky. It was really cloudy, like the expression 'The weather is cloudy'.
When the weather is cloudy, it can rain. Didn't you bring an umbrella?
Yes, I forgot and just left. But when I arrived at the subway station, it started raining!
Wow, it started raining from the sky! Did you realize then that you didn't have an umbrella?
Yes, when I looked in my bag, there was no umbrella. I left my umbrella at home!
Oh dear, that must have been really tough! Did you just go outside?
I walked a little bit, and my clothes got wet. Just like the expression 'my clothes got wet', my clothes were all soaked, so I immediately entered a convenience store.
So you bought a new umbrella at the convenience store!
Yes, inevitably, I bought an umbrella, just like the expression 'Buy an umbrella' at the store.
Korean convenience store vinyl umbrellas are really such helpful umbrellas, right?
That's right! When I went to the store, there were really many clear vinyl umbrellas.
In Korea, when it suddenly rains, everyone goes to convenience stores and buys vinyl umbrellas.
I already have five vinyl umbrellas at home too!
Right, doesn't everyone have a huge pile of vinyl umbrellas at home?
Yes, if you are Korean, this is a story everyone knows well.
Leaving the umbrella at home again, you end up buying another vinyl umbrella!
That's right. Thanks to the vinyl umbrella, I moved safely without getting rained on.
Vinyl umbrellas are cheap and really convenient.

Convenience stores in front of subway stations sell umbrellas really well on rainy days.

Right? Here, I have something I'm curious about Ryan. Do you usually check the weather forecast?
I don't check the weather forecast much. When it rains, I buy an umbrella at a convenience store then.
Ah, so Ryan buys one as needed! Every morning, I check the weather forecast and take an umbrella.
Mia, your preparation is really thorough!
So our habits are different! If you tend to buy an umbrella when needed like Ryan, you are Team Ryan.

Listeners, are you Team Ryan or Team Mia?
I'm curious what everyone does when it suddenly rains.
Then Ryan, let me ask a quiz here! How many people have left an umbrella on public transport?

No! According to a survey, I heard it is as high as seventy percent!
Wow! Seventy percent? Really many people leave their umbrellas behind!

Ryan, I will describe situations, so try saying the appropriate expression!

First situation. In the morning, when you look out the window and the sky is dark with many clouds, what do you say?
In this case, I immediately say 'The weather is cloudy'!
Correct! Second situation. Walking down the street when raindrops fall from the sky, what do you say?
Naturally, I should shout out 'It is raining'!

Very well done! Fourth situation. Having no umbrella so you got rained on and your clothes got wet, what do you say?
At that time, I should immediately say 'My clothes got wet'!
Exact! Fifth situation. Because it rains, when you enter a store to buy an umbrella, what do you say?
