Mai Trang (Joo)
Hi, I’m Mai Trang. My 'creator' name is Joo.
I create content and translate stories that sit at the intersection of language, culture, and everyday life. On YouTube and social platforms, I share what literature reveals about a society beyond its surface.
As a translator, I’m building a growing collection of sample translations in Korean literature, hoping to collaborate with publishers who care about nuance and voice.
I also connect with creators, researchers, and organizations interested in literature, Korean culture, storytelling, and education.
This space gathers my work so far, a quiet record of the path I’m shaping toward a deeper study of Korean Language and Literature, and the partnerships I hope to form along the way.

I earned my master’s in marketing through a full Korean-language program, where I studied, wrote, and defended my thesis in Korean. This helped shape both my research habits and my relationship with the language.

Bachelor's in Finance–Banking
My background in finance and banking helped me develop strong analytical discipline and a calm, methodical way of understanding problems.
