Hello, my name is Ki-moon Hong, and I am a Korean currently residing in Seongnam, South Korea. I am pursuing a major in Translation and Interpretation at Seoul University of Foreign Studies for my graduate degree. 

After graduating from University, I served as a military officer. Following the completion of my military duty, I started working at the largest Korean food company as a store manager, and then as a supervisor of bakery franchise stores in the company.

 During my 8-year tenure at the company, I learned how to communicate effectively with store owners and obtained a certificate as a Fair Trade Attorney, which required me to have special knowledge of the Fair Transactions in Franchise Business Act in Korea. I am familiar with legal terminology, and I believe that my various social experiences can be a strength in better understanding and translating various circumstances in the world.

 Above all, my greatest strength is that I have professionally learned translation and interpretation at the best institution, Seoul University of Foreign Studies(SUFS). After working for 8 years at the company, I decided to quit my job because I truly love translation and interpretation. I studied hard and finally entered graduate school(SUFS), where I continue to study every day and night to become a professional translator and interpreter. I genuinely love this work.

 Overall, I am very passionate about translation work and confident that I can provide diligent and sincere service.

Please find my attached resume for more details about me.
