Machine translation in Korea

Se-Young Park, Gil-Rok Oh


Abstract
This report introduces the current situation of machine translation in Korea. Recently, the need for further developing machine translation has been generally recognized. Although a few machine translation softwares for Korean have been released on the market, they do not sufficiently meet the need of users. As a result, the Korean machine translation field is only a niche market. However, several projects are underway in Korea which include world-wide technical cooperation. This report surveys the history of machine translation in Korea and describes the current market, R&D status, and current technical difficulties.
