The content I'm going to show you this time Translation of current affairs and culture genresThis is it. Here are two videos from Papa Travel, a YouTube channel that focuses on domestic travel and focuses on family travel in particular.
Please take a look at how the Gicon Studio creative translation team did the translation, focusing on examples.
Leek is Chive in English
Jeonggu-ji/Sol/Sol/Sole such
What is the translation of the other word for chives?
The video translated by our Gicon team introduces pensions and restaurants near Jirisan in Namwon, Jeonbuk, and
It was a video introducing tourist destinations in Gangwon Province, focusing on Donghae and Samcheok. The channel name is Papa Trouble.
though Instead of saying PapaTravel, I translated TravelPapa more naturally from the perspective of a native speaker.
A feeling (?) For the sake of translation, I won't miss even the slightest part~
✅ Difficult to difficult overlook the fields of tuna at a glance
👉 It was probably getting there, but we finally decided at today's guesthouse
If you watch the actual video, the above narration comes out when you have already arrived at the place where the daffodil fields unfolded. So I omitted repeated expressions, but made use of the context to convey the meaning. The expression “Dharanginon” was first translated as a terraced patty field, but after inspection, it was translated as rice field..
✅ Hehehe, that's amazing. The air conditioner is important for you
👉 “hehehe it's important because air conditioning is so important”
Gicon Studio creative translation that kindly translates even voices without subtitles ✌️
✅ We ordered Jirisan black pork in advance.
👉 We pre-ordered the Jirisan Black Pork
By the way, pork belly and miso stew take advantage of proper names such as samgyeopsal (samgyeopsal) and Doenjang jigae (miso stew)
It's better to translate it.
✅ This alone is enough to make a bowl of rice dripping
👉 this alone is enough to finish a bowl of rice
The expression tuckle is a nuance that ends in an instant. I translate it using finish to give the impression that I've finished a bowl of rice. It's a translation that cares about translation, Gicon Studio creative translation. 🤓
✅ Leek (standard language), Jeongguji (Gyeongsang-do), Sul (Chungcheong-do), Sol (Jeolla-do)
👉 Leek (standard), Jeongguji (Geongsang), Chol (Chungcheong), Sol (Jeolla)
There are cases where a single word, such as chives, is called differently depending on the region. Actually, chives are called chives. However, I expressed it as Leek to give the nuance that each region is called differently. When a single word is called by various namesWeapons with standard languageIf you show it, it can help readers understand it a little more. too Comply with foreign language notationIf you write it like this, you can give readers a little more confidence. So I translated Jol as Chol instead of zol or jol.
Other than that, let me introduce a completely different translation expression,
✅ Meat or something The expression Like meat
✅ sue The expression aromatic
I translated it like this.

Top 4 taking into account the arrival languageIt makes the most of the nuance as natural as possible.
✅ This is the filming location for the first Bangbang Beach and the BTS Butter Album jacket.
👉 First, Maengbang Beach. BTS filmed their album Jacket of 'Butter' here.
What is Gicon Studio creative translation Use carefully selected terms recommended by the Korea Tourism Organization or the National Institute of Korean LanguageI will. If there's no misunderstanding, I follow the agency's guidelines that set language standards as much as possible.
✅ Ah~ If I do this, I'll leave...
👉 Ah... what a shame...
[Korean Dictionary] Nagari: 1. It means that no one won the battle in Hattu, so the game was ruined.
2. A phrase that refers to a time when a plan or promise is broken or interrupted and comes to nothing.
In the video, I visited this place on purpose, but the ambassador came from an unfortunate situation due to bad weather. I translated it as What a Shame, the most commonly used expression in the Anglo-American world.
✅ The fourth and final destination is Beauty Falls, also known as Milky's Falls and Ponta Falls.
👉 At last, it is likely the “Milkis” waterfall or the “ice cream” waterfall. It is Miinpokpo.
Milk kiss is a drink that has been around for a long time and can often be found overseas. Therefore, even if it is translated as a proper noun, it is less likely to be misleading. However, foreign readers don't know what ponta is. Therefore, as close as possible, Ponta Falls is translated as Ice Cream Waterfall. Beauty Falls followed its proper name.
Other than that, let me introduce a completely different translation expression,
✅ SNS Is more commonly used in the Anglo-American region social media
It translates as
***
The limit of my language is the limit of my world. - Wittgenstein
As the famous philosopher Wittgenstein said, the limitations of one person's language soon show the limitations of the world in which that person lives. The Gicon Studio translation team, which is trying to break the barriers between languages, is still working tirelessly to translate one line today. I look forward to better and better translations than AI, which is growing day by day.
