Welcome to Three Step Korean Practice by KoreanClass101.com. In this lesson, you will practice how to ask about the price of an item at a shop.
Let’s look at the main dialogue.
Yeona Yu and Gisu Gwon are having a conversation. Yeona Yu has asked Gisu Gwon how much one of the paintings in the store costs.
어떤 그림이요? 이거요?

Which painting? This one?
네, 그거요.

그림 두 개에 95,000원이에요.
Geurim du gaee guman ocheonwonieyo.
It’s 95,000 won for two paintings.
그림 두 개에 (geurim du gaee) refers to the two paintings. After that, 구만오천 (guman ocheon) is the price, 95,000 won. The "구" in "구만" is 9, and the "만" is 10,000. So, "구만" is 90,000. After that is "오천." The "오" is 5, and "천" is "1,000." So, "오천" is 5,000. Finally, "원" is the currency of Korea, so all together 95,000원 (guman ocheonwon) is "95,000 won."
