정은: 여보세요.

Jung-eun: Hello?

강우: 정은 씨. 무대 다 봤죠?

길게 얘기 안 할게요. 정은 씨 투표는 이 전화로 하는 겁니다.

다섯 후보 중에 한 사람한테 투표 해주세요.

Kang-woo: Jung-eun. You’ve seen everything?

I won’t talk long. You’re going to vote through this phone.

You just need to vote for one person out of the five.

정은: 지금 이렇게요?

Jung-eun: Like this right now?

강우: 네. 이 전화 지금 다 같이 듣고 있어요.

근데 부담되면 안 해도 됩니다.

무기명투푠데, 정은 씨는 누굴 뽑았는지 모두가 알게 되니까요. 그냥 기권하면..

Kang-woo: Yes. Everyone’s listening to this call.

But, if it’s too much, you don’t have to do it.

It’s an anonymous vote, but everyone will know who you voted for. You can just abstain…

정은; 아뇨, 할게요. 인정해주신다면, 저 투표하겠습니다.

Jung-eun: No, I’ll do it. If you recognize it. I’ll vote.
