About me

I am a South Korea based linguist with over 6 years' translating experience in English to Korean.

I am good at especially humanity translation which requires natural, beautiful, and elegant expressions. I am also comfortable with translating computer-related documents, having studied computer science in the States.

Besides many different projects, I have worked on translating a number of tourism articles written by various writers from a travel magazine of Hachette Ein's Media for over a year. I have also translated and proofread a couple of books on culinary art and Christianity. This experience has made me fall in love with my native language deeper than ever. I take a great care in readability and style, while retaining the original meaning.

I mostly use American Heritage Dictionary 4th ed., Oxford English Dictionary, Korean Dictionary of the National Academy of Korean Language 2008, and English-Korean Dictionary, as well as databases on the net.

I work fast, but in a complete manner.

The CV above is the latest one. (You might need to log in to view it.)
