A Pynchon translator that wasn't

[Tofuman]

The publisher holding the rights in Korea contacted me 2 years ago
about translating GR into Korean and they just kept contacting and
abandoning me. I couldn't bear any more disappointment and just sent
the publisher that they will have to find another translator if they
still want to go ahead with the job.

It would've been cool (that's an understatement) to have my name on a
Pynchon book but I guess it's not to be. They said they couldn't find
a translator willing to do the job beside me because the book is too
long so I guess the chance of a Korean publication is pretty slim.
