2. Your main point seems to be that you are a qualified translator because you are a big fan of English literature, talented Korean writer and majoring in EIT.
3. These particular words or lines struck me as powerful:

>There is no better way to show your ability than a certificate or an award. I see that you are talented enough to become a literature translator.
4. All of your sentences are clear to me.
5. The one change you could make that would make the biggest improvement in this piece of writing is:
Your writing is well-organized and has credible explanations for your qualification. But the introduction part is not that interesting. It would be better if you add some nice hook to catch readers’ attention!
Thank you! :)
