it can't be helped, since ~

In every one of these lines 어쩌다 appears only inside 어쩔 수 없다, 'there is nothing to be done about it', with -(으)니까 supplying the reason: 인간이니까 어쩔 수 없어 (we're only human, so what can you do). The tone is resigned acceptance rather than complaint. The adverbial form 어쩔 수 없이 means 'unavoidably, with no choice in it'.
