Thank you very much for this interview. She is quite the fun person, and I like her jab at the Gom director.

What did it mean, translation requested by her? She specifically asked for this article to be translated for foreign sources to pick up?

She has been e-mailing me articles that she wants translated for an international audience.

After the first few articles went up on TL, Jessica/Ka-Yeon personally read through the comments in the topic, and noticed a lot of people were asking about what game she was involved in and to what capacity. So she asked me to translate this for the international fans.

SlayerS Clan want to reach out to foreign fans as much as possible and I think that she believes that TL is the best place to do that right now.

Nice!!! Keep up the good work!

It's interesting to see that she is involved that much in the MMO scene, its nice to know.

Although I never played Lineage, I played WoW for like 6years (since the beta till the beta of sc2) and "wars" are definitly the funniest thing to do (ie raiding the shit out of innocent people and ruining everyone's day).

Okay, just did.

There are two ways of romanising Korean. I tend to think that Ga-yeon is more accurate and closer to the pronunciation, but the Korean government seems to have adopted the other one as being "official", but make exceptions like with "Gimpo Airport"

So you have a lot of Korean translators trying to decide which one is more correct.

That's the topic on the subject - check through it to see if you think it's good enough
There seems to be a lot of comments not directed at her or BoxeR, really.
I'm sure she'll have a scan through it.

BoxeR and Jessica do "Naughty" things hahahaha

Nice read, I'm actually impressed that she can openly come out to the public and talk about her gaming life like this, takes some metaphorical balls for a high profile lady like her to pretty much come out to the foreign audience like this. Is there any chance for this game to be translated into English?

Commonly, in names, the K sound is written with a G character (not sure of the reason for this). 김 is read as "kim" even though it's spelled "gim", for example. Ka-yeon is probably correct but I'm not a translator and have only rudimentary knowledge of hangul =)

that always bothered me. 김 is pronounced Gim, not Kim. Kim is written 킴.
i'd martyr and say the proper way is Kim(already too late to spell it Gim) Ga-Yeon

I especially like her closing comments, overall she seems very ambitious and confident. Good luck to her, and props for sticking up for the games she enjoys.

A professional actress beating on scrubs all day? Only in Korea lol.

Imagine someone like Emma Watson saying "in between my Harry Potter movies, I pvp with my friends and troll lowbies in mmos".

Very nice article. Made me laugh =)

If Boxer hadn't got her we wouldn't know her in the first place though ^_^
A game where the first thing you do is scout with a “worker”. Does that make any sense? Who scouts with a “worker”? That’s like sending out the janitor to perform recon, what general would do that? Retarded game.
