How do i understand the meaning of this sentence correctly? (the sentece uses "Indirect Quotation") I have a sentence like this: 김 씨가 요즘 시험 준비하느라 빠쁘대요 i think there are 2 ways to understand the sentence: 1. Kim said that he is busy because of preparing for the exam 2. I heard (somebody said) that Kim is busy because of preparing for the exam Because the sentence has "대요", i don't know "대요" means " Kim said that" or "i hear (somebody said) that". Which ways to understand this sentence correctly? Can you explain it to me? thank you.
