Seok Sun Sihn

Professional, reliable & smooth
My name is Seok Sun Sihn (alias Sunny), and with over 20 years of experience (since 2004), I operate at the intersection of language, law, and science. My foundation was laid with a Master of Arts in Dutch Studies (Leiden University) and a Bachelor's in English Language and Literature.
Specialist in high-quality inspections and audits
Korean-Dutch and Korean-English Interpreter
Since 2009, I have been regularly deployed as an interpreter during complex quality inspections. I have specialized in sectors where quality requirements are extremely high and where error-free communication is crucial.
Pharmaceutical Industry & Medical Devices
A significant part of my work consists of supervising GMP (Good Manufacturing Practice) inspections. Major pharmaceutical players such as Pfizer , MSD , Novartis and Johnson & Johnson are among my regular clients. In addition, I have extensive experience with audits for medical devices (ISO 13485).
Food Safety & Agro sector
In addition to the pharmaceutical industry, I am a sought-after interpreter for inspections and audits throughout the entire food chain. My expertise extends from medical devices to the agricultural sector, with a specific focus on meat, dairy, eggs, and crops. Thanks to my knowledge of industry-specific terminology and quality standards, I work on a regular basis for food authorities such as the Dutch NVWA and the Belgian FAVV.
My expertise is also internationally recognized by the Korean MFDS (Ministry of Food and Drug Safety). At their recommendation, I was invited by the Lithuanian Food Safety Authority to act as an interpreter during official inspections. These recommendations at the government level underscore the quality and reliability of my interpreting services.
The Value of In-Depth Subject Matter Expertise
Technical interpreting requires more than a bilingual vocabulary—it demands a thorough grasp of the regulatory landscape. Because I am well-versed in specific industry protocols and legal frameworks, I act as a seamless bridge between the inspector and the organization. This level of expertise minimizes risks, saves valuable time, and provides the precision necessary for successful compliance.
