A friend needed a standard document translated to visit Korea, so I figured I'd upload it here for anyone else that is visiting Korea and can't read Korean.
It's for a personal guarantee. Many countries require that you have a guarantor to visit. That is, you must be invited by someone or a company; you cannot just show up and expect to get it. This of course differs for different nationalities for different countries. This document is only for certain foreign nationals that are visiting Korea. If you are one of them, you should already know. If you don't know, visit the Korean immigration web site for more information.

The original Korean is in there as well. The translated document is on top of the Korean, and cannot be used to send in to the Korean consulate for a visa. Print and use the Korean one.
Oh yeah... And enjoy Korea~! Seoul is one kick-ass city!
