This study presents a case study on designing and implementing the "Translation Talent Training Course" commissioned by the National Institute for International Education under the Ministry of Education, to cultivate critical foreign language translators for Korean cultural content. Targeting both critical foreign language majors and the general public in response to the growing global demand for K-content, the program incorporates unique cultural content translation education. The program encompasses genre-specific translation education, providing students with opportunities to engage with diverse text types, and the evaluation process emphasizes enhancing competencies in translation education, assessing the content and outcomes of cultural content translation. The study underscores the need for developing foundational language skills and a comprehensive understanding of the foreign culture, highlighting the extraction of cultural elements from translated texts to achieve functional equivalence and the importance of considering the contextual and purposive aspects of translation in conveying the surface and deep-seated meanings of Korean cultural elements accurately in the target language.
