Korean Translations (KO)
We provide the highest-quality Korean translation solutions for your businesses’ needs to access and succeed in Korea’s market
For many businesses today, Korean translations are a quickly mounting communication need, whether entering from abroad or growing to reach global markets from the Korean peninsula. Korean is the official language of both the Republic of Korea (South Korea) and the Democratic People’s Republic of Korea (North Korea). Korean is spoken by over 75 million people in total spread across North Korea, South Korea, China, Japan, as well as the United States. Recently, the Korean language has gained popularity worldwide among learners due to the rise of Korean pop culture and Korean personal care and cosmetic brands. Linguistic accuracy, in-depth cultural understanding, subject matter expertise, and localization best practices are all necessary components in ensuring success for any product or service entering the local market. Additionally, high-quality, consistent localization solutions for the Korean language requires advanced AI translation technology combined with native, in-country linguists for a quick turnaround time.
Korean Dialects and Cultural Nuances
Despite similarities to both Japanese and Chinese, there is no consensus on the origins of the Korean language. Although both North Korea and South Korea endorsed unified Korean language standards by the Korean Language Society in 1933, the two nations differ slightly in spelling, alphabetization, and vocabulary choice. In South Korea, the Korean writing system is called Hangul (han’gŭl; or Hankul), whereas in North Korea it can be referred to as Chosŏn kŭl(tcha), Chosŏn mun(tcha), or even Chosŏn mal. Additionally, when transcribed in other languages, romanization of the Korean language varies upon region. With so many different cultural nuances that vary across regions, the importance of understanding local communities is critical for ensuring success in whatever product or service is entering the market.
Through our in-country, subject matter expert linguists, and with over 20 years of experience, CSOFT understands the importance of distinguishing different dialects of Korean depending on the project.
