Dear professor,
I know you are busy, but I'm writing to you about the
assignment for our Intermediate English
Composition class. I am going on an urgent
business trip to Singapore for three days, so I cannot
submit my assignment this week. Can I submit it
next week? I have included an attachment with
copies of my plane tickets.
Best,

교수님께,
바쁘싞데 연락 드려 죄송합니다. 중급영어작문 수업 과제

출장 일정이 생겨 3일 동안 다녀오게 되어 이번 주에
과제를 제출하지 못 핛 것 같습니다. 과제를 다음주에
제출해도 될까요? 비행기 티켓 사본을 증빙자료로
