First & foremost kind appreciation on all the translation you did on Episode 48, must have took you many hours

"I didn't know there's this 56 percent alcohol content sorghum wine called Kaoliang. I only know Maotai (茅台) and thought it is THE highest alcohol content chinese wine out there (but it's only 53 percent). I've tasted it before and really disliked it. However, in China and some chinese-populated areas, it is so widely popular as a coveted drink of choice, in business entertaining or business gifting"

Kinmen Kaoliang ( 金門高粱酒 ) from Taiwan is 58% alcohol content. I usually will drink it with adding rock sugar (冰糖) or add some sour plum ( 酸梅 ) for some "diffuser" to its potent taste & will always drink it warm, never chill or iced. This taste better than Moutai (the bottle always reminds me of a Brasso Metal Polish)

But I drank Grappa that had 60% alcohol content, there are some vodka that is up to 80%

Although I will never been see looking like them after drinks

Episode 48

Chairman Choi "later" written statement had been taken to analyse, they will get the results next week

HK: I had heard that day that Abeonim (Chairman Choi) had taken sleeping pills & went straight to bed, it is not possible for him to return to the Prosecutor Office again, also he is a great user of the fountain pen

BS: Then what you are implying to say that the suppose "later" statement that was made with the Prosecutor is a fake statement

HK: Probably is.....

BS: This is preposterous....that wretched brat (Prosecutor Kim)...Yah!....That brat had been promoted, now he is the Chief Prosecutor

HK: What is there.....it will not be long, that he will be disrobe from his robes (dismissed as Prosecutor)

MTS working at strawberry picker, when a foreign worker address him as "Kim Chi" & he had to correct her as Kim ssi then she gave MTS some cold medicine & a bottle Ssanghwatang (쌍화탕) is a Korean herbal drink that is commonly drank in the colder month of the year as a natural cold cure 

HK on the hint on Lawyer Ha whether a house dog could have misplace the lens prompted HK to search Hana (4288's daughter) toy box & found the lens & thanked Hana that she had save her mother. HK later finds out that the optical lens (Zeiss) lens is imported from Germany with the prescription of "minus 400" which means the Chinese restaurant owner is short-sighted

The water dispenser guy Geum Gan San who gave SR a bowl of 2 fishes then sang a tune that Geumgansan ( 金剛山 ) had 12,000  pinnacles therefore he name the fishes 10,000 (il man, 일만) & 2,000 pinnacles (yi cheon bong 이천봉)

JE dressing HK wounds as HK caress JE hair

JE: Don't do that

HK: Don't want to

JE: I say, don't do that

HK: I say...don't want to....

JE: Sigh!

HK: A woman that you are not acquainted with...aren't you somewhat too cordial with her...I don't think I will like a man that is too cordial with such woman...a woman that you had no recollection (cognisance) with that you are getting cordial, wouldn't that be risky...I will not give you anymore headaches again...Your head that had been throbbing (with anger), I will not render that to you again....I will do exactly what you want me to.....I will grab hold tightly to your hands...I will give my all to you...I will....hmmm...Yeobo?....Oh!...Choi Jin Eon?....Choi Jin Eon ah!.....

JE: Tonight...you & I will sleep (together)....hmmm

HK smiles

" JE: Dong Chuan Bird's Nest Stew. What is this"

Tong Cheon Jaeb Bi Jib (통천 제비집), is just a fancy name for the dish

 Tong Cheon 통천(通川) is a county in Gangwon-do. 

Bird Nest (Jae Bi Jib (제비집, Sino Korean name Yeon Wa 연와, 燕窩)

"Then, this 'fried pork in scoop', what is it? You don't know this too? What about 'eight treasures porridge', do you know"

JE asked HK what is the signature dish ( Myeong Pum 명품 ) in this restaurant

"Fried Pork in Scoop" or Double cooked Slices Pork (Kkwo Ba Ro Woo, 꿔바로우,鍋包肉) is commonly known in Korea as Tangsuyuk (탕수육) 

The Eight Treasure Porridge (팔보죽,八寶粥) in Korea don't look dainty like your picture. This is what you get when you order in a Korean Chinese restaurant

" HW: Ah...what's up? Don't be angry. Why are you mad at me? Hey, punk! It's 56 degrees. Drink slowly."

56 degrees ( do,도, % is the ABV, alcohol by volume). JE is drinking the Chinese wine (白酒) had 56% alcohol content. The strongest soju you can have is 45%. The Chinese wine made from sorghum (고량, 高梁 ) that comes to mind with the content of 56% will be "Ergoutou"  ( Yi Gwa Do,이과두 二鍋頭 ) & you can normally order this wine in Chinese restaurant in Korea

"HK: To Buamdong to get some clothes, then to Po Hay Place(sound like. It's an orphanage.). My friend's daughter is sick. I've to take a look at her condition so I can let the child's mother know. That's why the minute I was discharged, I went to Po Hay Place right away.

Bo Yook Won (보육원,保育院) is a general term for Group homes, child centre, nursery or orphanage. You might hear that HK had pronounce the word as "Bo Yoo Kwon", she had carried the "k" sound to the last word

With some regards to Korean Chinese cuisine (Junghwa Yori, 중화요리,中華料理) is a distinctive cuisine only to Korea. Dishes are based on influence of the Northern-eastern style of Chinese cuisine of Beijing & Shandong, due to geography proximity. Most of these restaurant are run by Korean rather than ethnic Chinese & it is also the forerunner in home delivery or take away that analogues to pizza delivery in the US or the Indian take-away in the UK

Most famous food that comes out from these restaurant is the Jjajangmyeon  (짜장면)

I personally am not fond of this cuisine & will declines the offer, if they suggest to take me to a Chinese restaurant in Korea

I don't have the time to do sentence by sentence translation, therefore will only give you a brief summary. Most of the have been cover in the text preview

20일 방송되는 SBS 주말 특별기획 ‘애인있어요’(연출 최문석, 극본 배유미) 에서는 다시 한번 사랑을 완성하려던 진언(지진희 분)과 해강이 또 한 번의 이별을 맞는 모습이 그려진다.

The SBS drama "I have a lover broadcast on 20th (PD Choi Mun Seok, Scriptwriter Bae Yoo Mi), once again JE is given a chance to accomplished (complete) his love for HK but yet again ended in separation (farewell)

해강은 진리(백지원 분)와 김 변호사가 꾸민 거짓 자술서로 인해 ‘시아버지가 자신에게 죄를 덮어 씌웠다’는 오해로 크게 실망한다. 하지만 그런 아버지를 가진 진언의 슬픔을 공감하고 항소도 포기한 채 법정 구속된다.

HK is sadly disappointed over JR falsehood charges against her through Prosecutor Kim & her father in law (Chairman Choi) revised statement to cover his "rear". However HK empathy to consider JE feelings for his father, give up her appeal against her sentence

이를 뒤늦게 안 진언은 놀라움과 괴로움으로 어쩔 줄 몰라 하면서도 자신에게 이를 숨긴 해강이 원망스럽다. 백석(이규한 분)은 오해만 하는 진언을 향해 "당신 식구들을 해강한테서 제발 치워"라며 "해강이 그렇게 하는 것은 해강의 문제가 아니라 당신한테 문제가 있는 것"이라고 일침을 날린다.

JE  wonders in distress over the reason HK disappearance (hiding) & is upset with her. BS laments/begs to JE is someone to asked that his own family kin comes clean with their misapprehension acts or it will prove to be dampening for HK chances

1년의 세월이 흐르는 동안, 진언은 해강을 그리워하면서도 멀리하며 속상함과 미움, 그리움 사이에서 고통의 나날을 보낸다. 출소날이 가까워지자 백석과 진언은 ‘누가 해강을 마중할 것이냐?’를 두고 사소한 다툼을 벌이기도 한다.

A time pass of a year, JE spend his time vexed in upset over HK & yet longing & yearning. The day HK release from prison, BS & JE bickers who will pick HK

 Chul So (출소,出所,出訴) means release from prison

관계자는 "해강이 보고 싶어 미칠 것 같으면서도 자신의 마음을 숨기는 진언과 여전히 해강을 온기라 부르며 해강 바라기인 백석의 미묘한 줄다리기가 인상 깊게 펼쳐질 것"이라고 전했다. 이어 "출소 뒤 해강의 행보는 뜻밖의 형태로 이뤄질 예정으로 기대 바란다"고 덧붙였다

For all concern party, will this unfold whether HK equally had long & miss JE or do we yet to see another unexpected revelation as HK is release from prison

"does anyone know what is the centre that WJ, HK and JE visited? so do you colour the fishes and that is projected onto a screen? is that how it works? kind of cool place to take the kids? is this like a family centre or something"

It is called Sketch Aquarium or in Busan it is called Art Aquarium. It is a media gallery that exhibits pictures of sea animals where paper template of sea creature drawn & colour by children. Once drawn & coloured, it will be scan on the screen display in animation where their fishes will be swimming

 

To my knowledge, the only place I know that had this facilities is Busan Sea Life Aquarium ( 부산 아쿠아리움 )

You actually can do a day trip to Busan via KTX from Seoul in 2 hours 40mins, fare approx W54,000

BS Father thinks of going to Seobaeksan, as he had an offer for a Principal post in an Environmental Education (Ja Yeon Hak Gyu, 자연 학교  ) school 

Sobaeksan ( 소백산, 小白山) lies between Danyang County in Chungcheongbuk-do province & the city of Yeongju, Gyeongsangbuk-do province

As of 1995, Environment as a school subject was included as an optional course for junior high school students in the national curriculum to focus on values & attitude change. With rapidly increasing national concern about environmental issues & with an increasing number of schools teaching "environment" as a subject, it is expected that environment education in Korea will move more efficiently & profoundly

" JR is yelling at HK in the Choi house and throws something at her"

It will be salt, that JR is throwing at HK

In Korea superstition salt is use to cast away evil spirit & misfortune, or some form of purification (like in Japan, Sumo wrestlers will throw salt before entering the ring for purification purpose) therefore throwing salt directly at the person, means that they don't wish for that person to return, practically banishing or casting them away as unwanted company

" And who sent the new lady lawyer to Baek Seok's office?  Who is "Senior Park --- Is he the Driver's son, that Prosecutor? "

There is a Korean saying or claim, that if a stone is thrown from the top of Namsan, you are bound to hit a person with the surname Kim or Park. One in every 5 Koreans had the surname Kim in a population of just over 50m radius

One in 10 had the surname Park. The current President is President Park Geun Hye

The common Korean surname Kim, Yi (Lee) or Park, the 3 surnames account to almost half of the population in South Korea. There is little diversity in Korean surnames. China & Chinese have 100 common surnames (known as 百家姓, although there are more than 4,000 recorded surnames), in Japan you have 280,000 distinct family names

Therefore with so many Korean with common surname, to distinguished one's lineage from those of others with the same surnames, the place of origin of a given clan (bon-gwan, 본관, 本貫) ) was often tagged onto the surname. For the surname KIm, there is around 300 distinct regional origins (for those who seen sageuk, you have famous Kim clans e.g. Gyeongju Kim, Gimhae Kim, Andong Kim)

The limited pot of names meant that no one was quite sure who was a blood relation, so in the late Joseon period, the King enforce a ban on marriages between people of identical Bon-gwan, the restriction that was only lifted in 1997 where DNA test superseded Bon-gwan as an indication of one's lineage.
