I'm looking for an adjective!

0 Hi everyone! 02br
02br
00Lately, I've been bothered because I couldn't explain a situation. I looked it up in a Korean-English dictionary, but truely I don't believe the dictionary. (Frankly it almost always sucks..;;) 02br
02br
00Anyway, I wonder how to explain a situation or things that is usually not easy because I have to take care of a lot of things in order to solve the situation or do things. 02br
02br
00That's not enough describing, I think. Let me give some examples. 02br
02br
00If you apply a visa and the embassy asks you a lot of documents, how do you feel about applying visa? 02br
02br
00You are hungry in the middle of night but you don't have anything too eat instantly. Call the pizza hut? >_02br
00Korean-English dictionary suggests "(be) troublesome; cumbersome; irksome; vexatious; annoying; complicated; involved; entangled; intricate " for that. 02br
02br
00I think "complicated" is suitable for first example. But I feel like that there is something different between "complicated" and what I want to say. 02br
02br
00Please help me, guys!! 0-

00"tiresome" is what I want exactly to say! 02br
02br
