| | 이제 남은 것은 마지막 직선코스뿐입니다! | Explanation:
예전에 Dave Johnson이라는 스포츠 캐스터가 경마에서 시합이 200미터 정도 남아 있을 때 잘 쓰던 말로 다른 경기에서도 종종 쓰이고 있습니다.
Stretch 는 결승점 앞의 직선 코스를 의미하므로 다음과 같이 번역하시면 좋을 듯 합니다
“이제 남은 것은 마지막 직선코스뿐입니다!”
“이제 직선코스만 남았습니다!”
“이제 마지막 직선코스만 남았습니다!”
다른 곳에서 쓰였다면 비유적으로 해석하시면 될 것 같네요.

Thank you for your advice. But, you are wrong. As you said, this is a global community. Any languages are welcomed. English alone does not mean "gloabl". |
