Description

I am a Korean to English translator and editor with more than ten years of experience.

Alongside translation, I work in linguistic quality. In-house, I review and edit medical translations, evaluate linguists against client standards, and maintain glossaries and translation memories.

My work falls into two main areas:
• Medical and healthcare: translation and review of medical content, with strict handling of confidential data
• Media and culture: subtitling of K-dramas, films, documentaries and variety shows, and marketing transcreation

Services: translation, editing and review, linguistic QA, subtitling, transcreation
CAT tools: Trados Studio, memoQ, Phrase (Memsource), XTM

Published work includes translations of diaspora and oral history narratives for PEN (North Korean Writers in Exile) and the Jeju 4.3 oral history project.
