Hyun-ju : 미안해. 

I’m sorry. 

Do-kyum : 누나가 왜 미안해. 

나도 이번 연재 끝내고 본격적으로 여친 찾기 들어가야겠다. 

미안하면 누나도 적극 협조하든가. 콜?

Why are you sorry? I’m going to start looking for a girlfriend as soon as this project is finished. If you’re sorry, you can actively help me with that. How does that sound? 

Hyun-ju : 콜...

Sounds good.
