Bio
I acquired a degree in molecular biology and translated biology-related papers for several years. Also, I translated unpublished web novels and introduced them to the Korean web novel community. In addition to that, I worked on various subtitles such as games and movies.

I have written a novel in Korean. So, my understanding of Korean is higher than other Korean translators. I think the most important thing in translation is how to translate the context, not only meaning, but also nuances and styles of the source text to the culture of the target language. From this perspective, it is a clearly advantage to have Korean writing skills that write novels.
