베일에 가려있다 keep under wraps

A : 이번에 새로 부임하는 사장님은 어떤 사람일지 궁금하다.
    I wonder what the incoming CEO is like.

     I hear he's got what it takes, with a strong drive to get
     things done.

A : 아주 젊다고 들었는데, 미혼인가?
     He's supposed to be really young. Is he still single?

우회적인 의사/감정표현

	아까 상호씨가 분명히 화난 것 같았는데 왜 괜찮다고 한 거죠? I was sure Sang-Ho was really angry a little while ago. Why did he tell you that he was ok?

	그 말을 곧이곧대로 들으면 안돼요. Oh, he didn't mean it literally.

	한국사람들은 실제로는 그렇지 않은데도 '괜찮아요.' '아무 문제 없어요.'라고 한답니다. Koreans say, "I'm ok," or "Everything's fine," even when that isn't really the case.
