Dr Jisue Park

I am a current PhD student in Translation Studies in the University of Surrey, working on the process of translating metaphors in comics and the quality of final translation. My research interests include translation process research, cognitive aspects of translation, translating metaphors in different contexts, and machine translation post-editing. I received a Master's Degree in Translation Studies in Hankuk University of Foreign Studies, Seoul, South Korea, where I focused on the translation of metaphors in proverbs from Korean into English from the perspective of conventional equivalence. Before joining the University of Surrey, I worked as an hourly paid lecturer, translation project coordinator as well as project assistant. I was involved in The National Institute of Korean Language's project of translating the Korean-Foreign Language Learners' Dictionary which provides parallel translations to 10 different languages.
