Here is the sentence broken down:

• 자판기 = vending machine
• 에서 = at / from, marking the place where the action happens
• 음료 = beverage, drink
• 를 = object particle
• 사요 = buy / am buying / will buy, in a polite style

So the structure is basically:

• 자판기에서 = at/from the vending machine
• 음료를 = a drink
• 사요 = buy

에서 is used because buying is an action happening at a place.

A very common basic distinction is:

• 에 = to / at / in, often for destination or location
• 에서 = at / in / from, where an action takes place

So:

• 학교에 가요 = I go to school
• 학교에서 공부해요 = I study at school

In 자판기에서 음료를 사요, the action of buying happens at/from the vending machine, so 에서 is the natural choice.

를 marks the direct object of the verb.

Here, the verb is 사요 = buy, and the thing being bought is 음료, so 음료를 means the drink or a drink as the object.

Compare:

• 음료를 사요 = buy a drink
• 책을 읽어요 = read a book
• 빵을 먹어요 = eat bread

In casual speech, Koreans sometimes drop object particles, but in standard textbook-style Korean, keeping 를 is normal and helpful.

Korean often leaves out the subject when it is already understood from context.

So 자판기에서 음료를 사요 can mean:

• I buy a drink from the vending machine
• I'm buying a drink from the vending machine
• sometimes even He/She buys a drink..., depending on context

If you want to make the subject explicit, you can add one:

• 저는 자판기에서 음료를 사요 = As for me, I buy a drink from the vending machine
• 제가 자판기에서 음료를 사요 = I am the one who buys a drink from the vending machine

Omitting the subject is very common in Korean.

Korean usually follows subject-object-verb order, and the verb normally comes at the end of the sentence.

English:

• I buy a drink from the vending machine

Korean:

• I from the vending machine a drink buy

So 자판기에서 음료를 사요 is a very normal Korean word order.

A rough pattern is:

• place + object + verb

That is one reason Korean sentences can feel backward to native English speakers at first.

The dictionary form is 사다, which means to buy.

Korean dictionary forms usually end in -다.
To make it polite in the 해요 style:

• 사다 → stem 사-
• add -아요
• 사아요 contracts to 사요

So:

• 사다 = to buy
• 사요 = buy / am buying / will buy

This kind of contraction is very common.

Because Korean often contracts vowels to make speech smoother.

For 사다:

• stem: 사-
• polite ending: -아요
• expected form: 사아요
• contracted form: 사요

So 사요 is the normal form.

A similar example:

• 가다 → 가요, not 가아요

It can mean any of those, depending on context.

The -아요 / -어요 form is a non-past form, so it does not mark English-style tense as exactly as English does.

So 사요 can mean:

• buy
• am buying
• will buy

Examples:

• right now: 지금 자판기에서 음료를 사요 = I’m buying a drink from the vending machine now
• habit: 저는 자판기에서 자주 음료를 사요 = I often buy drinks from vending machines
• near future: 잠깐만요, 자판기에서 음료를 사요 = Wait a moment, I’ll buy a drink from the vending machine

Context tells you which meaning is intended.

사요 is polite, but not the most formal style.

It is in the 해요체 style, which is very common in everyday conversation. You can use it with:

• strangers
• coworkers
• store staff
• people you do not speak casually with

Other levels:

• 사 = casual, intimate
• 사요 = polite everyday style
• 삽니다 = formal, more official or stiff

So 자판기에서 음료를 사요 sounds polite and natural for normal conversation.

Korean does not have articles like a, an, or the.

So 음료를 can mean:

• a drink
• the drink
• sometimes just drink/drinks, depending on context

The listener figures it out from the situation.

If you want to be more specific, you can add words for number or type, for example:

• 음료 한 개를 사요 = I buy one drink
• 그 음료를 사요 = I buy that drink

But without extra words, Korean often leaves this kind of detail unstated.

Yes. 음료 is correct and natural enough, especially in learning materials or general statements.

But in everyday conversation, Koreans also very often say:

• 음료수 = drink, beverage

And in real life, people often use the specific drink name instead:

• 물 = water
• 커피 = coffee
• 콜라 = cola

So all of these can sound natural depending on context:

• 자판기에서 음료를 사요
• 자판기에서 음료수를 사요
• 자판기에서 커피를 사요

음료 is usually pronounced more like 음뇨, not a careful letter-by-letter 음료.

So:

• 음료를 sounds like 음뇨를

This happens because in this word, the sound changes in normal pronunciation.

A rough English-style guide would be:

• 자판기에서 ≈ ja-pan-gi-e-seo
• 음료를 ≈ eum-nyo-reul
• 사요 ≈ sa-yo

So the whole sentence sounds roughly like:

• ja-pan-gi-e-seo eum-nyo-reul sa-yo
