Power Expressions
Kristen: We’re going to be talking about side hustles today. Okay?
Cameron: Oh,
Kristen: Cameron, what is wrong?
Cameron: More work. More work. So, I guess we should define side hustle.
Kristen: Okay, so our topic now, every Fridays, is going to be growing microgreens as a side hustle. Okay, so what microgreens are… 마이크로그린
Cameron: Oh, they just use the English in Korea. Yeah, that’s right. Oh.
Kristen: And it is a side hustle. So you’re not a farmer. You’re a part-time farmer.
Cameron: Kind of, I guess.
Kristen: Oh, what does this mean?
Cameron: Right. So first, microgreens are just tiny greens, tiny vegetables, I guess. But a side hustle is kind of a second job that isn’t like your main. So it’s not your main job, but it’s not even the amount. So Monday through Friday, you do your regular job. Maybe on the weekends for 10, 15 hours on the weekend, you’re doing something else to make more money. A
Kristen: Okay, so that’s a side hustle and we know a lot of people are really like doing a lot of side hustle these days.
Cameron: To survive, everyone.
Kristen: It’s so expensive.
Cameron: Yeah.
Kristen: You can’t survive on just one job.
Cameron: You want you want to live in Seoul? I need three jobs.
Kristen: Oh my fosh, you need, like, many hustles. Oh, yeah.
Cameron: Okay.
Kristen: All right, here are the expressions that we’re going to focus on. If you are health conscious.
Cameron: It means that you take interest in your health. You’re trying to be healthy by exercising and eating well.
Kristen: How about you start off?
Cameron: Start off is when you’re beginning something, beginning a process, beginning a journey.
Kristen: Okay. And how about walk someone through something?
Cameron: You’re guiding someone through a process.
Kristen: Okay, got it. All right, let’s go ahead and listen to our dialogue.
Power Dialog
Theresa: Hey, Blake, I noticed some lights through your basement window. You might want to turn them off.
Blake: It’s okay. Those lights are on a timer. I need them for my microgreens.
Theresa: I knew you were health conscious.
Theresa: But I didn’t know you grew your own food.
Blake: Well, I started off growing them just for me, but now it’s a business.
Theresa: That’s exciting. Can you show me how you do it?
Blake: Sure, I’ll walk you through the whole process. Follow me.
Kristen: Okay, Theresa begins, hey Blake, I noticed some lights through your basement window. You might want to turn them off. Okay, now, here, you might want to is our power pattern.
Cameron: Yes.
Kristen: And it’s kind of tricky.
Cameron: Oh, yeah.
Kristen: I don’t really know what it means. Well, I know what it means, but a second language learner, you want to, you might want to?. I don’t know. Right?
Cameron: Yeah. So, the actual meaning is this might be a good idea. This might be something good for you to do. But it’s not really used in that way. There is, it’s, how do I explain this? It’s a suggestion. It’s a suggestion. Kind of. But sometimes it’s more than a suggestion, I feel.
Kristen: Yeah.
Cameron: Like, my mom would say this a lot to me. And like, if your mom says you might want to, it isn’t really like a choice. It is actually a command.
Kristen: So here. Okay. So I feel like depending on who says this to you, like if it’s your mom or if it’s your boss, it’s like they’re saying it in a nice way that you should do something.
Cameron: Is it nice, though? I mean, yes, I agree. There are instances where it’s a nice way of saying, you need to do this. There are other times when it feels like a mother or father, a husband or wife is kind of trying to say, hey, you need to do this or I’m going to get mad. Or, hey, you need to do this or you’re going to get hurt.
Kristen: It’s so interesting how it seems harmless. You might want to but when you look at the intention? Right. It’s a little aggressive.
Cameron: Right, so for example, my dad might say, Hey, you might want to turn off the car before you put gas in it. Right? Obviously, you want to turn off the car before you put gas in it, or it could like explode. Right? But they may phrase it in this way. Yeah. So don’t think it necessarily as an option or just polite.
Kristen: It is just another way of saying you need to do this.
Cameron: You need to do this.
Kristen: What does Blake say?
Cameron: It’s okay, those lights are on a timer. I need them for my microgreens.
Kristen: Okay, so in the basement window, the light is on, and the reason why is he needs them for his microgreens. What are microgreens?
Cameron: Small.
Kristen: Little, yeah.
Cameron: Baby greens.
Kristen: Be-be-be-
Cameron: I mean, which, so I guess it’s like sprouts. It’s basically 나물. Kind of.
Kristen: A little bit.
Kristen: They’re like little, you know, little, little veggie-like things.
Cameron: Yeah, but they’re only like weak or so old.
Kristen: Right, they’re like baby greens.
Cameron: Pop out, yeah.
Kristen: Theresa says, I knew you were health conscious, but I didn’t know you grew your own food. So, Theresa says, oh, I know you’re health conscious, but wow, you grow your own food? What? If someone is health conscious, and it’s c-o-n-s-c-i-o-u-s. Okay. What kind of person are you?
Cameron: Annoying.
Kristen: So I must be annoying.
Cameron: Oh, no.
Kristen: I am very health conscious.
Cameron: Not at all. Yeah. Health conscious is a person that is thinking about their health very often. They’re trying to eat clean.
Kristen: Right.
Cameron: They’re often exercising. Maybe they’re taking supplements or other things. They often stay away from things like sugar or alcohol, things like tobacco. They don’t do those things because they health is very much like a number one priority.
Kristen: Yep, that’s right. That’s right. So if you are health conscious, it’s probably because maybe you’re older or maybe you had surgery and you need to change your diet and lifestyle. So Theresa’s like, oh, I knew you were interested in well-being and health. Yeah. But, oh, you grow your own food. And Blake says.
Cameron: Well, I started off growing them just for me, but now it’s a business.
Kristen: In the beginning. Actually, it was just for him.
Cameron: Yes.
Kristen: I started off doing something. What does this mean?
Cameron: So here, you could just say ‘start.’ You don’t need ‘off.’ I started growing them just for me. However, started off has an extra feeling of growth. Going on a journey, going in a direction. So, you’re starting a process. You don’t need the off to make this sentence work, but adding the off gives this extra feeling of like you were in a boat and you went out into the ocean. There’s this extra feeling of direction by having off. (off를 추가하면 성장, 여정, 방향, 출항하다라는 의미가 더해짐)
Kristen: Right. So I started off is kind of the beginning of the journey.
Cameron: Yeah. Okay. The beginning of the process. The process. The beginning of the history of my microgreen life.
Kristen: Right. So Blake didn’t get into this business right away. And Theresa says, that’s exciting. Can you show me how you do it?
Cameron: Then Blake says, sure, I’ll walk you through the whole process. Follow me.
Kristen: So to walk someone through something.
Cameron: This is to guide them to show them and if anyone watches video game Videos online there are often a walk-through thing where people will play the video game, showing you what step to do, this is how you beat the boss, this is how you go to the next level. Those are called walk throughs. So when you walk through a process you are guiding or showing them how to do something.
Kristen: Okay, very good. So here, walk through, and oftentimes, you know, when you start a new job and everything is new, you will have someone walk you through the various duties or responsibilities.
Cameron: Yeah, how to get on your computer, how to do payroll, how to ask for a day off.
Kristen: Ha ha!
Cameron: How to give your letter of resignation.
Kristen: There you go. All right, let’s go ahead and listen to that one more time.

Power Note
1. Health conscious: 건강에 관심이 있는
Kristen: It’s time for Power Note. Let’s look at our first expression, health conscious. It means that you are very interested in health. Yes.
1)
A: Pete, you’re pretty health conscious. What advice could you give me?
B: If you’re trying to get fit, eat less and move more. It’s pretty simple.
That’s my health voice. That’s my fitness voice.
Kristen: Can we hear the regular voice?
Cameron: If you’re trying to get fit, eat less and move more. It’s pretty simple. I don’t know. Okay.
Kristen: So, yes, I am health conscious. Cameron is…
Cameron: Not. I know what I’m supposed to do. I just don’t care sometimes.
Kristen: You’ll get there.
Cameron: Yeah, I guess when we have, a lot of people have what’s called a health scare (건강 염려증). That’s like whenever something bad, like the first bad thing that happens, it could be, you know, like for many, some people it’s like a heart attack.
Kristen: Yeah, stroke.
Cameron: Yeah, or they get a bad number on their health exam.
Kristen: Oh my god! Yeah, I could die.
Cameron: Yeah, you have a health scare and then you get health conscious. You become health conscious. I don’t think I’ve had that health scare yet.
Kristen: Yeah, I think that’s why. And I think also because you’re younger. But, you know, they do say that the younger generation, you know, is more vulnerable, like open to diseases more because of, you know, all the environmental factors and stuff like that and, you know, technology and things. But I think you’re okay for now.
Cameron: I mean, I know what I’m supposed to do.
Kristen: I know. We all do. I’m health conscious, but, you know, give me, like, a big cake, and I’ll eat it. All of it by myself. Oh, yeah. Okay.
2) I wasn’t very health conscious until my doctor told me I had high blood pressure.
Cameron: Oh, that could be a…
Kristen: 검진, Your checkup, right? Oh, you’re pre-diabetic (당뇨 전단계). Or like your blood pressure is so high you need medication. Like then you start.
Cameron: Yeah. Like, yeah. That’s the health scare.
Kristen: Yeah, it’s the health scare.
Cameron: It gets you health conscious.
Kristen: That’s right. So, but it would be good to try to be a little bit more health conscious in the future, Cameron.
Cameron: It’s so much easier in Korea though. It’s so easy to eat vegetables here. True. I feel like in America I would have to put a lot more effort.
Kristen: Yeah, that’s true.
Cameron: To eat healthily?
Kristen: Yeah.
Cameron: I feel it’s much easier here.
Kristen: Absolutely. And let me tell you, and I saw on this post on Instagram and it was an article about a Korean school lunch and an American school lunch.
Cameron: Oh, night and day, completely different.
Kristen: Oh, I’m like, you know, our culture, the Korean culture, the food culture is already health conscious.
Cameron: Already? Oh yeah.
Kristen: But in America?
Cameron: In America, school children, they’re like prisoners.
Kristen: Poor, poor, poor babies.
Cameron: It’s awful.
Kristen: It’s terrible. Okay.
2. Start off: (긴 과정, 긴 여정)을 시작하다. 발을 디디다.
Start off means basically you’re it’s the first step of a journey or a project or a process.
1)
A: How did you learn French so fast?
B: I started off by taking five lessons a week and watching a French movie every night.
Kristen: Okay, now you’re becoming French.
Cameron: I just have a French accent all the time.
2) We started off on our hike, but then we saw lightning in the distance and turned back.
So, again, you start off with something, but there is a long process.
Cameron: Yes.
Kristen: Or a journey that you need to finish.
Cameron: There’s like a direction.. That’s why. So in both of these, you don’t need off.
Kristen: Yeah.
Cameron: Started off adds the extra like, 출발! like it’s kind of that, let’s go. So you’re going in a certain direction.
Kristen: So in America, you can actually change your major. You can start off as a computer major, computer science major, and then you can graduate as a psychology major.
Cameron: Ah, so you changed direction.
Kristen: You change direction.
Cameron: You started doing one thing.
Kristen: You started a thing and then you finished with something different. Okay. Let’s have one more example to start off.
Cameron: Start off. So you can even use this in a meal when you’re ordering. Oh, yes. I think we’ll start off with the caprese salad.
Kristen: Yes.
Cameron: We’re going to begin this experience, begin the meal, begin the experience of the meal. We’re going to start off with. Right. That’s our appetizer.
Kristen: When you’re in a business meeting.
Kristen: The key speaker could say to start off because this is going to be a longer meeting, like a one hour meeting. We’re going to talk about this and then we’ll talk about that and then we’ll end talk about and in the end, we’ll talk about this. we’ll finish the meeting with this.
Cameron: Or you can talk about your career. Oh, I started off as an English teacher. But then I got a job at EBS. Yeah.
Kristen: Or I became a voice actor. Yeah. Yeah, that’s me. Okay. Okay,
3. walk someone through something: –에게 차근차근 알려주다.
Cameron: You’re guiding them, you’re instructing them on the process.
Kristen: Okay,
1)
A: I’ll walk you through everything you need to do while I’m gone.
B: Thanks. I’d hate to overwater your plants or give your fish too much food.
Kristen: Show like someone is house sitting for you. Someone is going to come over and take care of your house and your cats or your dog. Right. So you walk them through everything. Showing them.
Cameron: This is where you find the water. This is where you find the fish food. Right. This is how much you give. This is the light switch. Yeah.
Kristen: All of those things.
2) I’ll walk you through how to make a pizza from start to finish.
Yeah. That’s a process. Like if you’re going to start with the dough, the pizza dough. You have a long way to go before you make a pizza. Right? That’s why it’s walking you through it. So that word through is key. Yeah. Because you have to go through it.
Cameron: Yeah, you’re going through the process.
Kristen: Yes.
Cameron: So, and it’s not always actual walking. No. So, you know, Bob Ross, he’s a very famous painter in America. He would walk you through how to do a painting. Oh, wow. Do you know Bob Ross?
Kristen: I do not know.
Cameron: He’s very calming. He had like big brown hair and he would just like, he had, it was on public television and he would just paint. He would tell you how to do the painting. He’s like, if you’re following at home, this is the color.
Kristen: Is this like a long time ago?
Cameron: Yeah, it’s like from the 70s.
Cameron: ‘Cause he’s like so calming.
Kristen: I see his picture. I know who you’re talking about.
Cameron: Even if you didn’t know how to paint, as you’re watching the show, if you paint along with him, you can create your own picture.
Kristen: Oh, my gosh.
Cameron: Cause he walks you through the process.
Kristen: All right, very good.
4. You might want to: — 하는 게 좋을거야
Okay, you might want to means like you should do it. You need to do it.
1) You might want to call your sister today. Hey.

Microgreens are healthy, edible plants like spinach, lettuce, radish, and broccoli that are only a few days to a week old. Some can also be referred to as sprouts.
Kristen: Do it. Okay, micro green is our power vocab on page 36. That’s all the time we have for today. Thank you so much for studying with us and we’ll see you next time.
