Ensuring Quality Repair Information on iFixit
The translation team works hard to provide iFixit’s content in multiple languages. Learn more about how content is reviewed to ensure the best quality of information.

Hello! My name is Christian Kim. My time with iFixit started in July 2017. I translate popular contents such as Apple and Samsung devices' Repair Guides and Teardowns from English to Korean. Working mostly remote, I am proud to say my contribution will help change the world once device at a time.

Moving from the South Korea, I attended Burbank High School. Studied and took multiple science courses in the field of Computer Science and Electrical Engineering at Cal Poly San Luis Obispo. However, settled and graduated with B.S. Crop Science. While working in San Luis Obispo, I commuted to Mill Valley, CA (about 4 hour drive, one way) for about three years and earned Master in Theological Study from Golden Gate Baptist Theological Seminary (now Gateway Seminary).

I am not an expert repairer. I regularly replace oil and fluid for my cars at home. I have replaced batteries and screens for apple devices. Water faucet replacement is on my to do list. I admire professionals and experts who extends devices' life.

I enjoy watching movies and collecting physical media: DVDs and Blu-rays. I grow several vegetables in pots: green onion, peppers, sesame, and tomatoes. Every a few years I visit Korea for a month.
