This paper treats the translators’ being and role in the translators’ epilogues of translated texts which have been ignored in the mainstream translation studies. Compared to the source texts, the status of translators and translated texts has been placed as secondary, which leads and forces translators to apply limited translation strategies in the translation process. Although the translators’ epilogue is a permitted space reserved for translators, translators have used the space as a self-restraint device in the expression of their being and translation strategies. In other words, they have not taken advantage of the space properly as a self-expressive device of their being and translation strategy. In this paper, 30 different translators’ epilogues were analyzed, and six ST-oriented and nine TT-oriented factors concerning translators’ (in)visibility were found. Regardless of genre, the factors of summary and comment of the source texts, and the stimulation of reading motivation are relatively important, and the comments of translation theory, translation strategies, and translation responsibility are more frequently found in the epilogues of non-literary works than of literary ones. In contrast, translation strategies and theories occur less often in Kim, Sukhee’s epilogues. Although translators are forced to be invisible by some prominent reasons such as heterogeneity, authorship, the formation of cultural identity, or the text being a bestseller, translators have to try to devote a good deal of space to their positive being and role at least in the translators’ epilogues. There are many positive evidences in the epilogues in which translators have endeavored to give readers the true meaning of the author, and have kept as much as possible. It is also necessary for them to add their statements in some places; otherwise the book cannot be understood. The value of translators’ visibility cannot be overemphasized because it is their unique right.
