Spotting a Translation Error in Encounter


Together with my Basic Korean Class G 2018 classmates from the Korean Cultural Center in the Philippines, we were able to ascertain that there was a translation error in Episode 9 of Encounter aka 남자친구, which stars Song Hye Kyo (송혜교) and Park Bo Gum (박보검).

The translation error occurred at around 5:56 when the first winning raffle number was announced. The number twenty (20) or 이십, was mistakenly translated to two (2) or 이, probably due to the confusing visual when the actor held up two fingers.

The Korean numbering system is tackled in KCC's Basic Korean class.

감사합니다 classmates, especially 틴 씨 and 빈스 씨! A shout out to 방 선생님!

The video is from the Viu website. Thanks Viu! #ViuItRight
