In South Korea, interpreting between Korean-English has been most common due to the long bilateral relations and contacts of more than 60 years between the two countries. However, mistakes made in interpreting top US officials' remarks into Korean have been nothing new. The reason is quite simple: interpreters from the US side, mostly Korean-Americans, are not professionally trained. While all interpreters affiliated with the US State Department are required to be US citizens, it is not easy to find American citizens professionally trained as an interpreter for Korean and English languages.
On the contrary, Korean-side interpreters are usually either professionals trained hard at a master-degree interpreting school, or diplomats who made themselves semi-interpreters with their own linguistic talents and through self-training. Those diplomats have an advantage in that they interpret their usual tasks at the Foreign Ministry. It is why diplomats sometimes sound better than professional interpreters, because they know what they interpret better than anyone else including freelance interpreters.
Reports or critics on the US-side interpreting of English into Korean have become more active with live TV coverage of press conferences between the two countries. After the flawed performance of Secretary Rice's interpreter in 2006, Korea's Foreign Ministry had lamented that the US-side interpreting remains a great challenge to be solved. The fundamental problem, however, lies in the fact that Washington does not regard the issue as serious. Similar cases of misinterpreting will continue to happen as long as the US does not change its attitude of indifference, which seems to be rooted in its sense of superiority over other countries and other languages than English. If Washington cannot find US nationals with Korean background who have necessary skills and experience in interpreting, it should break tradition and instead, call on professional interpreters, for example, those working for the US Embassy in Korea, who received proper training at graduate schools of interpreting in Seoul. Only then will the shameful history of poor interpreting end.
