Korean-to-English webtoon translator focused on dialogue localization, line editing, and proofreading nuance.
AlgeriaWhat I'm looking for
I’m a Korean-to-English webtoon translation applicant with four years of personal manhwa translation and proofreading practice since 2022. I focus on Korean-to-English localization for dialogue-heavy stories across fantasy, romance, revenge drama, action, and imperial political scenes.
I bring strong English line-editing instincts and a clinical psychology background, so I pay close attention to character voice, emotional nuance, pacing, SFX, and panel context. My workflow is research-driven (titles, honorifics, cultural context, and genre) and consistency-focused for names, ranks, factions, and scene continuity.
I also build translation-ready formatting habits for bubble dialogue, narration boxes, thoughts, on-screen text, and translator/editor notes, with a feedback-friendly revision process and deadline awareness. I’m available for remote freelance Korean-to-English webtoon translation tests and proofreading tasks.
