1. [News Analysis] Lee's defeat opens uncertain future for liberal bloc

기사 요약: 이재명 당선 패배로 불확실해진 민주당의 미래는?

The Democratic Party of Korea faces a perilous path ahead after the defeat of its candidate Lee Jae-myung, as possible investigations and political actions could undermine its dominant position in South Korean politics.

* Perilous: 아주 위험한
* Undermine: (권위 등을) 약화시키다


Lee's defeat signifies that voters have eventually chosen to prioritize holding the current administration to account, underscored by Yoon Suk-yeol of the conservative People Power Party over Lee's assertions that he would be able to bring about a national recovery.

* Signify: 의미하다, 나타내다
* Hold something to account: 누군가에게 책임을 묻다

* Underscore: 강조하다 
* Assertion: 주장

Although Lee's supporters emphasized strong leadership and economic recovery to overcome the COVID-19 pandemic, a greater number of voters decided to back Yoon, lending their support once again for a candidate emphasizing justice and impartiality.

* Emphasize: 강조하다
* Overcome: 극복하다
* To back: 도와주다, 지지하다

Lee will have to brace for a tough few months, as the numerous allegations brought against him in the run up to the election see almost certain to be investigated.

* To brace for: ~에 대비하다
* Numerous: 많은
* Against: ~에 반대하여

Netflix’s global megahit drama “Squid Game” won two trophies at the 27th Critics Choice Awards held in Los Angeles on Monday.

** Megahit: 대히트

The show’s lead Lee Jung-jae won best actor in a drama series for his role as Gi-hun, a down-on-his-luck middle-aged man who takes part in the deadly “Squid Game.”

* Be down on one’s luck: 재수가 없다, 운이 나쁘다
* Middle-aged: 중년의
* Take part in: ~에 참여하다


Director Hwang Dong-hyuk’s nine-part series “Squid Game” depicts a story about Gi-hun and hundreds of other cash-strapped people who are invited to be part of a deadly children’s game in which the sole survivor gets 45.6 billion won.

* Depict: 그리다, 묘사하다
* Cash-strapped: 금전적으로 어려운

Following its release in September last year, it quickly reached the No. 1 spot on the streaming charts of 94 countries, and became the most-watched Netflix show of all time.

* Streaming: 재생
* Most-watched: 가장 많이 시청된
