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.
