For the way I translate on here, see pinned tweet.
TTL;DR sometimes I get paid to translate for a news article. Sometimes I do it for free for a friend.

Every single translation Iโ€™ve posted on twitter has been for free.

Every single one of you, stop mentioning my friend in your replies and apologize in the comments here, on your main accounts. Their life is their own, they do not need to be dragged into this.
Money isnโ€™t the only currency my dear
Favors are my price
Guess you canโ€™t afford me. And Iโ€™m a pretty good translator too.

โ€œWorld Citizensโ€ (์„ธ๊ณ„์‹œ๋ฏผ์„ ์–ธ), a youth nonprofit that works to support citizens around the world resisting government violence, has warned they will file an injunction in court against Snowdrop.
They describe the drama as a clear insult against the efforts of those who fought dictatorship, and argue that it could signal to other dictatorships that state violence can be glorified.
The org continued, โ€œThe broadcasting of Snowdrop on major distribution platforms gives a mistaken view of history to generations who have not experienced it. It can also cause them to justify glorification of state violence in order to defend their celebrity.โ€

The family of Park Jong-cheol, who was the student who died after brutal water torture by the NSA, has spoken out about how #Snowdrop is causing harm to victims of the NSA.
Parkโ€™s family point out that there are still-living families of those who were accused of being North Korean spies and tortured, and the drama recreates the narrative that was used against victims
Essentially, it justifies why the NSA did what they did.
