It is built from:

• 보상 = compensation
• 받다 = to receive

So 보상받다 literally means to receive compensation, and in natural English often means to be compensated or to get reimbursed.

In this sentence, 보상받았어요 is the past polite form, so it means received compensation / got reimbursed.

A very literal breakdown is:

• 보상받았어요 = received compensation
• more natural English = got compensated / was reimbursed

That is exactly the idea. Korean often expresses this situation from the point of view of the person who gets the money or compensation.

So instead of saying:

• Someone compensated me

Korean often says:

• I received compensation

That is why 받다 is very natural here.

Compare:

• 보상했어요 = (someone) compensated (someone/something)
• 보상받았어요 = (someone) received compensation

So this sentence focuses on the person who had the repair costs and got reimbursed for them.

비싼 is the form used when an adjective directly modifies a noun.

The dictionary form is:

• 비싸다 = to be expensive

When it comes before a noun, it changes to the noun-modifying form:

• 비싼 수리비 = expensive repair costs

This is similar to how English changes structure from:

• The repair cost is expensive to
• the expensive repair cost

For Korean descriptive verbs/adjectives, you often use -ㄴ / -은 before a noun.

So:

• 비싸다 → 비싼
• 작다 → 작은
• 좋다 → 좋은

수리비 means repair cost, repair fee, or repair bill.

It is a compound noun:

• 수리 = repair
• 비 = expense / fee / cost

So:

• 수리비 = repair expense

Depending on context, it can refer to:

• the amount you had to pay for repairs
• the repair bill
• the money needed for repairs

In this sentence, it means the money spent or charged for repairs.

This is a very common point of confusion for English speakers.

In Korean, the thing that gets covered, reimbursed, or compensated is often marked as the direct object with 을/를.

So:

• 수리비를 보상받다 literally looks like
• receive compensation the repair cost

But the real meaning is:

• receive compensation for the repair cost
• get the repair cost reimbursed

Korean and English package this idea differently.

A few similar patterns:

• 치료비를 지원받다 = receive support for medical expenses
• 손해를 배상받다 = receive compensation for damages
• 학비를 지원받다 = receive support for tuition

So 를 here does not mean you literally received the repair bill itself. It marks the expense that was compensated.

모두 means all or completely.

In this sentence, it means that all of the repair costs were compensated, not just part of them.

So the nuance is:

• 수리비를 보상받았어요 = got compensated for the repair costs
• 수리비를 모두 보상받았어요 = got compensated for all of the repair costs

It is adding the idea of total coverage.

You can think of it as modifying the whole compensation event:

• all of the repair bill was reimbursed

Yes, 모두 is somewhat flexible.

The given sentence is natural:

• 비싼 수리비를 모두 보상받았어요

But you may also hear:

• 비싼 수리비를 전부 보상받았어요
• 수리비를 모두 보상받았어요

The important thing is that 모두 is showing totality: the whole amount was covered.

Korean word order is more flexible than English, especially with adverbs like 모두, but the version you were given is very standard and clear.

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

So this sentence could mean:

• I got reimbursed for all the expensive repair costs
• We got reimbursed for all the expensive repair costs
• They got reimbursed for all the expensive repair costs

The subject is left out because Korean does not need to state it every time if the listener already knows who is being talked about.

This is one of the biggest differences from English. In Korean, leaving out the subject is extremely normal.

보상받았어요 is:

• past tense
• polite speech
• specifically the -아요/어요 polite style

Breakdown:

• 보상받다 = to receive compensation
• 보상받았- = received compensation
• 보상받았어요 = polite past

This style is very common in everyday conversation when speaking politely but not formally.

Compare:

• 보상받았어요 = polite everyday
• 보상받았습니다 = more formal
• 보상받았어 = casual / intimate

Not exactly in a strict grammar sense.

It is better to think of 보상받다 as a verb meaning to receive compensation, rather than as a simple passive of 보상하다.

Compare these:

• 보험사가 수리비를 보상했어요.
  = The insurance company compensated the repair costs.

• 수리비를 보상받았어요.
  = (I/they) received compensation for the repair costs.

The second sentence feels passive in English because we often translate it as was compensated, but in Korean it is built with 받다, meaning receive.

So it is often called a receive-construction rather than a basic passive ending like -이/히/리/기- or -되다.

Yes, but the nuance is different.

• 보상받았어요 focuses on the person or side that received the compensation.
• 보상되었어요 focuses more on the cost or damage itself being compensated.

Compare:

• 비싼 수리비를 모두 보상받았어요.
  = (I/they) got reimbursed for all the expensive repair costs.

• 비싼 수리비가 모두 보상되었어요.
  = All the expensive repair costs were compensated.

The second one sounds a bit more impersonal or formal. The first one sounds more natural when talking about your own experience.

Yes.

• 보상 is a broad word for compensation, often for loss, damage, or expenses.
• 배상 is often used when someone is legally or morally responsible for damage and must pay for it.
• 환불 means refund, usually returning money that was paid for a purchase or service.

So with repair costs:

• 보상받다 = got compensated / reimbursed
• 배상받다 = got damages paid, often with a stronger legal-responsibility feel
• 환불받다 = got a refund, which would not usually fit normal repair-cost compensation

In your sentence, 보상받다 is a very natural choice if the idea is that someone such as an insurer, company, or responsible party covered those repair expenses.
