    This paper analyzes four English translations of Kim Dong-in’s short story “Gamja” to examine their differences, find related problems in translation, and thereby suggest proper strategies for future translations of Korean literary works. Though evaluations on translation differ according to critics or readers, this paper focuses on the differences in expressions rather than elaborating on translation theories. The story of an ill-fortuned lady named Bok-nyeo, “Gamja” is one of the best-known stories in Korea and an excellent representative of modern Korean literature from the early 20th century. Various translation strategies adopted in the translation of this short story boil down to two methods: literal (word-for-word) translation and free translation. To what extent translators depart from the stylistic norms of a source text depends totally on the freedom of the translators. Though translators have a certain leeway in choosing the linguistic forms, they should devote themselves to conveying the author’s intended meanings rather than merely transferring the text at a linguistic level. Key points found during the analysis of the translations of “Gamja”include the necessity of resolving the ambiguity of the Korean language in the translations, the importance of understanding Korean culture and particular contexts of the original text, as well as mastering the language.
