When you say "first(1st)/첫 째(1)/첫 번째, second(2nd)/둘 째(2)/두 번째, third(3rd)/셋 째(3)/세 번째, ...", you are using numbers called an ordinal number. When you say "one/하나(1), two/둘(2), three/셋(3), ...", you are using numbers called a cardinal number. I studied^^ She's the second missing person in this city. = 그녀는 이 도시에서 두 번째로 실종된 사람이다.

1st = 하나 = 한번(횟수를 나타낼때 count) = 한개 (수량을 나타낼때 quntity) 2nd = 둘 = 두번 = 두개 3rd = 셋 = 세번 = 세개 she's the second missing person in this city. 그녀는 이도시에서 실종된 두번째 사람이다.
