I sent off the translation to the answers of the interview to Birding & TT earlier this morning. it is up to him to format it in a way that makes sense. I made a MS word file and wrote the original questions in English, then the Korean underneath it. When I got the interview answers back, I made Seo Hyo Weon's answers BOLD in Korean then the translation BOLD in English right below and sent it off back to Birding & TT.

Translation of Korean to English makes ZERO sense if you literally translate everything letter for letter word for word, so do not be surprised if I made it sound like SHW was a native English speaker. There is an art to making answers sound authentic. If I just said word for word what she said 99% of you would be scratching Ur heads big time wondering what makes sense. Don't sweat it, I kept it real and gave her some street cred with the answers. She made her most revealing answers when she talks about equipment and what kind of training and tactics are needed.

I think Birding & TT will make a separate thread for the interview. I agree as this will give everyone more attention to it and a chance to comment.

Still, Birding & TT has to read over and maybe edit some of passages I took some liberty to have it all make sense to us.

Despite the strait-laced nature of Koreans in formal situations like this interview, I truly believe this interview has the potential to be one of the most EPIC and best interviews of a TT pro... EVER!

Believe!
