3/4 Talk about dok-seo-sils in Korea.

Many Korean students make use of a dok-seo-sil to get some serious studying done.
* make use of: ~을 사용하다.
ex> I have a land line, but I hardly make use of it because I have a cell phone.
cf> land line: 유선전화

You can either purchase a daily-pass or pay a lump sum for a monthly pass.
* daily-pass: 일일 이용권
* monthly pass: 월 이용권
* pay a lump sum: 목돈을 지불하다.
ex> You may get a discount if you pay a lump sum up front.

They are filled with individual study carrels.
* study carrel: 개인용 열람실
ex> My school library has individual study carrels for students to use.

You're assigned a specific carrel for personal use.
ex> The students were assigned a paper, which is due at the end of the week.
ex> The locker are rented out to the gym members for personal use.

Most private dok-seo-sils are frequented by middle and high school students.
* frequent: 자주 이용하다.
ex> This traditional Korean restaurant is frequented by tourists throughout the year.

@ We tossed ideas back and forth.  여러가지 생각을 이리저리 나눠 봤어.

1. If you pay a lump sum, you can get a discount.
2. Each student is assigned his or her own study carrel.
3. You can use this locker for personal use.
4. This restaurant is frequented by foreigners.
