Wanted: Korean translators
|
Seoul, Republic of Korea (K Herald): Experts say that Korean literature should enter the global stage. To that end, more Korean novels and poems should be translated into English and other foreign languages. The trouble is that translators do not receive due respect in Korea. Worse, translation is perceived as something that anybody who knows some foreign languages can do. Brother Anthony of the English department of Sogang University in Seoul said that to improve the quality of translations, Korea needs more non-Korean translators who enjoy working on Korean literary work.
