Unless you’ve been living under a rock, you would have heard about the Korean-language Netflix series, ‘Squid Game’. One of the many discussions sparked by this series has been about the challenges of translation.

  1. Squid Game: why you shouldn’t be too hard on translators

  2. Squid Game and the ‘untranslatable’: the debate around subtitles explained

Enjoy your studies!
