‘Star translator’ Hwang Seok-hee‘s workroom revealed for the first time... Even her manager is a former translator (All-Knowing Interfering View)

Star translator Hwang Seok-hee revealed her workroom for the first time.

On the 335th episode of the MBC entertainment program ‘Point of Omniscient Interfere’ (planned by Kang Young-sun / directed by Kim Yoon-jip, Jeon Jae-wook, Lee Kyung-soon, Jeong Dong-sik, Lee Da-woon / written by Yeo Hyeon-jeon / hereinafter ‘Point of Omniscient Interfere’), which aired on the 22nd, the daily life of Hwang Seok-hee, a star translator with 20 years of experience who has left her mark on the translation industry, was revealed.

On this day, translator Hwang Seok-hee revealed for the first time her workroom, which was fully set up with translation equipment such as a mechanical keyboard and large dual monitors. Hwang Seok-hee, who has worked on over 600 pieces, carefully selects words using AI and conducts research on pieces, showing off her own work routine.

The relationship between Hwang Seok-hee and her manager, Oh Jong-hyun, who started out as a translator, also drew attention. Manager Oh first met Hwang Seok-hee at a translators’ meeting and has been with her for 20 years. The deep friendship between the two, who have relied on each other as friends, drew attention.

Translator Hwang Seok-hee met with Manager Oh and went to the press call for the musical ‘Once’. After a while, Hwang Seok-hee answered questions about the lyrics from the actors and explained the song along with the translation intention, which was a refreshing move that only a translator can do. In particular, the stage for the representative song ‘Falling Slowly’ from the movie ‘Once’, which was reborn in Korean with the addition of Hwang Seok-hee‘s directing and the delicate expressiveness of the actors, touched the hearts of the viewers.

After practice, Hwang Seok-hee had a meal with his manager and looked back on his life as a translator. Hwang Seok-hee’s name is a regular on the ending credits of hit movies such as ‘Deadpool’, ‘Spiderman’, ‘Venom’, and ‘Bohemian Rhapsody’. He also revealed the behind-the-scenes story of his video translation debut ‘Dr. Phil Show’.

Meanwhile, next week‘s broadcast will feature the musical world’s lovebirds Kim So-hyun and Son Jun-ho, who will reveal their real daily lives with their son Juan, as well as the backstage and stage site of the K-musical ‘Empress Myeongseong’. Also, the nation‘s grandson Hwang Min-ho, the ‘Trot prodigy’, is raising expectations by revealing his daily life as an adult(?) with a 13-year-old sensibility, living in a house with a practice room and with his biological father, who is his manager.
