🚲自転車乗り🚲

私は毎週木曜日、日本語の会話会に参加している。歩いて25分程度だけど、暑くなってからはバスで通い、今日は久しぶり自転車に乗って行った。

韓国では近年、自転車とキックボード🛴をアプリで簡単に借りられる、「個人の移動手段のレンタルサービス」がたくさん出来た。今日私が借りたのはソウル市の運営する、「タルンイ」だったけど、普段運動をあまりしないので疲れてしまい、日本語をあまり喋れなかった🫠

私は日本留学に行った時、友達と一緒に家を借りるために不動産屋に行ったことがある。「自転車に乗れますか」と職員さんに聞かれて、私は笑顔で「自転車乗るの好きです」と答えた。私は人がいない空き地で自転車に乗って遊ぶのが好きだったからだ。

しかし、職員さんが先頭に立って、私たち3人が並んで出発したところ、職員さんは狭い道をクリネズミのように猛スピードで走り出した。出発して10分くらいで後悔し始めて、20分になっては先頭のグループを見失ってしまった😨

家の人との待ち合わせだから、職員さんと1人の友達だけが家に着き、結局私ともう1人の友達は泣きながら自転車を引きずって、不動産屋まで戻って来た😭
それで、日本人に「自転車に乗れます」とは強いて言っちゃいけないと分かった。


자전거 타기 

나는 매주 목요일 일본어 회화 모임에 참가한다. 걸으면 25분 정도 거리인데, 더워지고 나서는 버스로 다녔고, 오늘은 오랜만에 자전거를 타고 갔다. 

한국에는 근래 자전거, 퀵보드를 앱으로 손쉽게 대여할 수 있는, 이른바 “개인형 이동수단 공유 서비스”가 넘쳐나고 있다. 오늘 내가 빌린 것은 서울시가 운영하는 “따릉이”인데, 평소 운동을 거의 안하는 탓으로 너무 지쳐버려서, 일본어 대화를 거의 못했다. 

내가 일본 유학을 갔을때 친구랑 같이 살 집을 임대하기 위해서 부동산에 갔던 적이 있다. “자전거 탈 수 있나요?” 직원이 물어서, 해맑게 “자전거 타는거 좋아해요”라고 대답했다. 나는 사람이 별로 없는 공터에서 자전거 타고 노는걸 좋아했기 때문이다. 

그런데 부동산 직원을 선두로 나란히 친구 3명이 자전거로 출발했는데, 직원은 좁은 골목길을 다람쥐처럼 빠른 속도로 내달렸다. 출발하고 10분이 넘어가니까 후회가 되기 시작했고, 20분을 넘어서는 결국 선두 그룹을 놓쳐버렸다. 

집주인과의 약속시간에 맞춰 직원과 친구 1명만 임대할 집에 도착했고, 나랑 다른 친구 1명은 울면서 자전거를 끌고 부동산으로 되돌아왔다. 
이후로는 일본인 앞에서 “자전거 탈수 있어요”라고 함부로 말하면 안된다는 걸 알았다.
