My hat goes off to anyone who wins this award. Translation is never easy, but as someone trying to learn Korean, I know just how hard it is to capture the essence of what is meant. So translating poetry would be doubly hard.
Does anyone want to try this award? I’m thinking about it,but must be touch to get the translation done by myself, guess need one who could do proofreading. I’m about to start! If any one, let me know!
