*beheaded: 참수당하다
[4] As he took his first steps into Jeju International Airport, he knew his life would not be in danger because it was “normal” to be safe here in South Korea. But at the same time, he was at a loss.

2. Govt. vows ‘soft-landing’ of shorter workweek amid confusion
기사요약: 오는 7월 1일부터 실시 되는 주 52시간 근로제도를 앞두고 김동연 부총리 겸 기획재정부 장관이 올해 말까지 단속보다는 제도정착에 힘쓰겠다고 밝혔다.
