안 내면 진 거, 가위바위보!
Okay, I know 가위바위보. 
Scissors, Rock, Paper. Right?
But what is 안 내면 진 거?

안 내면 If you don’t participate
진 거, you lose.

Actually, this is just for a warm-up before 가위바위보.
The meaning is not that important but we do it 
because this rhythm makes us ready.  
So try to get used to the rhythm and melody

So if you play 가위바위보, just try it!
안 내면 진 거, 가위바위보!


무슨 말인지 알겠어요? You got it?
That’s it!
다음 시간에 만나요! See you next time!
