I don't know how it was transcribed but some sentences seem to be mangled. I'll give my suggestions for what some of them might have been originally, but please double-check it as my guess may be wrong. 1) 부산보로간 목적이아니였어요 - It probably meant 부산 보러 간 목적이 아니었어요? ("보로" doesn't exist) - 부산 보러 간 (gone to see Busan) + 목적 (purpose) + 아니었어요 (wasn't it)? - So, literally, "Wasn't the purpose to go see Busan?". (Busan: Korea's second largest city) - Better way to say it: 부산(을) 보러 가는 것이 목적(이) 아니었어요? 2) 잠시그냥 바람보로? - It probably meant 잠시 그냥 바람 쐬러? - 바람(을) 쐬다: get fresh air. 바람 보로 or 바람 보러 (too see the wind) is not a proper expression. - So it means "Just to get some quick fresh air?". 3) 유럽 여행 계획 짭니닼 - "...짭니다" was given a little cutesiness by adding "ㅋ" at the end. - It means "We make plans for touring Europe". 4) 키만보는듯 - "키만 보는 듯(하다)". ..듯하다 is often shortened to ..듯 on the internet for space saving and effect. - Assuming "you" for subject, it means "You seem to see the height[stature] only". - (For example, someone is too keen on the height when assessing a member of the opposite sex.)
