수령인 means the recipient or the person who is supposed to receive something.

It is a fairly formal, administrative-sounding word, so you often see it in:

• delivery notices
• forms
• official documents
• customer service messages

In everyday conversation, Koreans are often more likely to say:

• 받는 사람 = the person receiving it
• 받는 분 = a more polite version

So 수령인 is correct and natural here, but it sounds more like notice/service language than casual speech.

부재중 means absent, not present, or unavailable because the person is away.

It is a very common word in formal or semi-formal situations, especially in:

• delivery messages
• office notices
• phone systems
• door notices

Examples:

• 부재중입니다 = The person is absent / unavailable
• 부재중이라 전달하지 못했습니다 = We could not deliver it because the person was absent

Also, -중 often gives the sense of in the middle of or currently in a state of, so 부재중 literally has the feeling of being in a state of absence.

Because 부재중 is treated like a noun expression, not a regular descriptive verb/adjective.

To say because it is X with a noun, Korean uses:

• N + 이라 / 라
• or N + 이라서 / 라서

So:

• 부재중이라 = because the person was absent
• 학생이라 = because someone is a student
• 의사라서 = because someone is a doctor

Since 부재중 ends in a consonant, it takes 이라.

You could also say:

• 부재중이라서

That is also correct. The version without 서 is just a little shorter and very natural in written notices.

Because the sentence has two clauses, and each clause has its own subject.

1. 수령인이 부재중이라
   = because the recipient was absent

2. 배송 기사가 전화했습니다
   = the delivery driver called

So the subjects are:

• 수령인 for the first clause
• 배송 기사 for the second clause

This is very normal in Korean. English often does this too:

• Because the recipient was absent, the driver called.

Each part has its own subject.

Using 이/가 makes the sentence sound like a neutral statement of fact.

• 수령인이 부재중이라 배송 기사가 전화했습니다 = a straightforward report

If you changed them to 은/는, the sentence could sound more topical or contrastive, depending on context:

• 수령인은 부재중이라 배송 기사가 전화했습니다

That might sound like:

• As for the recipient, they were absent, so the delivery driver called
• or it may suggest some contrast

In service messages and factual notices, 이/가 is very common because it simply presents the information.

Yes, 기사 has several meanings in Korean.

Common meanings include:

• news article
• driver
• technician/operator

In 배송 기사, it means delivery driver or courier.

So:

• 배송 = delivery
• 기사 = driver/person doing that service

Together:

• 배송 기사 = delivery driver

The meaning is clear from context. In this sentence, it definitely does not mean a news article.

Because it is a noun phrase made of:

• 배송 = delivery
• 기사 = driver

Korean spacing can sometimes feel inconsistent to learners, but writing this as 배송 기사 is normal.

You may also see other similar phrases:

• 택배 기사 = parcel delivery driver
• 버스 기사 = bus driver
• 택시 기사 = taxi driver

So it is helpful to think of 기사 as a noun that combines with another noun describing the kind of work.

Korean often leaves out information that is understood from context.

So 전화했습니다 just means:

• called
• made a phone call

The sentence does not explicitly say who the driver called. Depending on context, it could be:

• the recipient
• the sender
• the customer
• someone listed on the order

In English, we often want to know the object right away, but Korean frequently omits it when it is obvious or not important.

If you wanted to specify it, you could say:

• 수령인에게 전화했습니다 = called the recipient
• 고객에게 전화했습니다 = called the customer

전화했습니다 is the formal polite style.

This style is very common in:

• notices
• customer service messages
• delivery updates
• written announcements

So the sentence sounds like something you might read in a tracking message or official delivery notification.

Compare:

• 전화했습니다 = formal polite
• 전화했어요 = standard polite, more conversational
• 전화했어 = casual

In a message from a delivery company, 전화했습니다 is very natural.

Yes. The original sentence is natural, but it sounds somewhat formal and service-oriented.

More everyday versions could be:

• 받는 사람이 없어서 배달 기사가 전화했어요.
• 받는 분이 안 계셔서 택배 기사님이 전화했어요.

These feel more conversational.

Rough differences:

• 수령인 → formal
• 받는 사람 / 받는 분 → everyday
• 부재중 → formal
• 안 계시다 / 없다 → more conversational
• 배송 기사 → neutral/formal
• 택배 기사님 → very common in everyday speech when talking about parcel delivery

So the original sentence is perfectly good Korean, especially for a delivery notice, but not the most casual way to say it.
