About Me

       Greetings! Thanks for visiting my profile. I'm Sang Min, a native Korean born and bred in Busan, South Korea but with some experience living abroad in the UK and the US. I have been exposed to English media for as long as I can remember, with my first English program (that I can remember) being Wheel of Fortune & Jeopardy! syndication which was broadcast on Armed Forces Network Korea (AFKN) in Seoul when I was a wee lad. Now, with over 25 years worth of English knowledge at my disposal, I'm helping English and Korean speakers to get their points across others (so long as they're not particularly... pointy).
                  

When I'm not translating as part of my job, I work on my "passion" translation projects, such as contributing to user-created modifications for indie games and making subtitles for obscure British comedies. When I'm not translating for either my job OR my passion projects, I immerse myself in video games or films (good or bad, so long as they're entertaining)


What I Did

    Back in the mid-2010s, before I became a translator, I worked on and off for BeFM, a Busan-based local English radio station, writing, editing, and even starring in local affairs programmes (by the way, I signed up mostly to help out with admin work and expected to do anything BUT the things I've mentioned.)

    After becoming a translator, I worked on company presentations for overseas automobile clients, provided English translations for a webzine, and translated websites into English. Have a look at my sample translation section!
