Bio

I am a Korean native speaker who can also speak Japanese very fluently. Through sufficient experience of studying and working in highest-level institutions both in Korea and Japan, I am very familiar with business/industry terminology or expression in various fields.

I think the translator should put first the success of clients by contribution through language. The completion of translation itself should not be the final purpose. I always think how I can convey the exact meaning of original contents as well as the speed of work.

-. M.A. degree at the University of Tokyo as a scholarship student for the Japanese government.

-. Bachelor's degree at Korea University.

-. Currently in Korea, but I had lived in Japan for nine years, including recently. 

-. Score 980 at JPT out of 990 ; Test of Japanese proficiency for Korean.

-. Have Level 1 at JLPT.

-. Rank top 0.08% of the advanced Korean language test for Korean native speakers. 

I worked for several global conglomerates for 18+ years and for most of that period I was in business between Japan and Korea. As a former marketing manager and management director of electronic appliance companies, I am especially proficient in trading, financial or legal issues, manufacturing, IT things as well as the products themselves.

And I am obsessed with correct and natural expression both of Japanese and Korean, good enough as a professional translator. I majored in Communication and Journalism, published a book (co-writing) in Japanese, having very high score in language test of course.
