[Agnes Choi | The 15 Mins Online Team ]
The Open Translation Project gives me

2
00:00:09,399 --> 00:00:10,877
pleasure from collaborating with people

3
00:00:10,877 --> 00:00:13,496
and a chance to strengthen my English

4
00:00:13,512 --> 00:00:16,683
[Donghyun Kim | Video Translator]
The fun from working together

5
00:00:16,683 --> 00:00:21,232
And the feeling of getting
better and better every step

6
00:00:21,232 --> 00:00:23,317
These are the benefits 
from working on this project

7
00:00:23,317 --> 00:00:26,461
The concept of 
the 'Open Translation Project' was

8
00:00:26,461 --> 00:00:28,463
kind of interesting to me
'The 15 Minutes'

9
00:00:28,463 --> 00:00:30,096
where you get to spread your ideas

10
00:00:30,096 --> 00:00:35,436
[Steven Butler | English Consultant]
is something that I really believe in.
The free spread of education and ideas

11
00:00:35,436 --> 00:00:38,551
is something that 
I think should be worldwide

12
00:00:44,272 --> 00:00:46,693
One of the best ways 
to change the world is

13
00:00:46,693 --> 00:00:52,033
to spread the strong will of people

14
00:00:52,033 --> 00:00:55,262
[Inhyuk Song | The 15 Mins Curator]
who want to walk their own paths

15
00:00:55,262 --> 00:00:58,953
And to make a chance 
for them to participate together

16
00:00:58,953 --> 00:01:01,458
[Donghyun Kim | Video Translator]
While participating in the project

17
00:01:01,458 --> 00:01:07,231
I thought it was really meaningful 
to make quality Korean content available worldwide

18
00:01:07,231 --> 00:01:09,800
I think the true meaning of 'globalization' is

19
00:01:09,800 --> 00:01:14,517
more than just spreading content 
into foreign countries

20
00:01:14,517 --> 00:01:17,767
[Agnes Choi | The 15 Mins Online Team ]
There is a lot of quality Korean content

21
00:01:17,767 --> 00:01:21,017
that also has language and cultural barriers

22
00:01:21,017 --> 00:01:24,147
'Globalization' means 
removing those barriers

23
00:01:24,147 --> 00:01:27,767
in order to enable more people
to acceess that content

24
00:01:27,767 --> 00:01:32,324
and even to add more value
to that content

25
00:01:32,324 --> 00:01:34,601
because it can be fresher 
and more exotic outside of Korea

26
00:01:34,601 --> 00:01:37,694
I think that is 
what true 'globalization' means

27
00:01:43,099 --> 00:01:45,823
When you translate it 
into other languages

28
00:01:45,823 --> 00:01:47,471
unlike when you just listen to it

29
00:01:47,471 --> 00:01:50,606
[Inhyuk Song | The 15 Mins Curator]
when you translate it sentence by sentence

30
00:01:50,606 --> 00:01:54,422
you can have the chance
to thoroughly go over its history

31
00:01:54,422 --> 00:01:56,447
and the will to achieve the goal

32
00:01:56,447 --> 00:01:59,682
which makes myself think

33
00:01:59,682 --> 00:02:01,553
about 'How to live my own life'

34
00:02:01,553 --> 00:02:03,739
And, just like I did myself

35
00:02:03,739 --> 00:02:06,357
I can spread the same opportunities

36
00:02:06,357 --> 00:02:08,489
to people all over the world

37
00:02:08,489 --> 00:02:12,763
I think one of the greatest ways
to positively influence the world is

38
00:02:12,763 --> 00:02:15,199
participating in the 'Open Translation Project' 
by The 15 Minutes

39
00:02:15,199 --> 00:02:20,570
Most of time
after finishing translating

40
00:02:20,570 --> 00:02:26,865
[Donghyun Kim | Video Translator]
and seeing my work on TV

41
00:02:26,865 --> 00:02:29,434
I never saw my name 
at the ending credit of the program

42
00:02:29,434 --> 00:02:32,541
However, unlike my past experiences,
I could see my name on this

43
00:02:32,541 --> 00:02:34,600
- On the video of 'The 15 Minutes'?
- Yes

44
00:02:34,600 --> 00:02:37,914
I could see my name 
at the end of the video

45
00:02:37,914 --> 00:02:40,689
When I saw my name
at the ending credit

46
00:02:40,689 --> 00:02:42,427
I literally felt touched

47
00:02:42,427 --> 00:02:45,667
As a foreigner, I think
it's a great way to work together

48
00:02:45,667 --> 00:02:48,917
with Koreans and
to work together with other people

49
00:02:48,917 --> 00:02:50,461
[Steven Butler | English Consultant]
And also to learn Korean a little bit

50
00:02:50,461 --> 00:02:52,062
and I think anybody who lives in Korea

51
00:02:52,062 --> 00:02:54,675
and I think anybody who lives in Korea

52
00:02:54,675 --> 00:03:00,681
and the foreigners would benefit a lot 
if they were able to help participate 
in these kinds of translations

53
00:03:00,681 --> 00:03:02,897
I feel grateful
to be participating

54
00:03:02,897 --> 00:03:07,397
in a great project like this
from the start

55
00:03:07,397 --> 00:03:11,813
[Agnes Choi | The 15 Mins Online Team ]
I hope people around the world 
can participate in this project

56
00:03:11,813 --> 00:03:14,295
and use this opportunity 
to create globalized content together

57
00:03:14,295 --> 00:03:19,220
as well as make a worldwide network of 
participants who share values
