Our Korean translation and localisation services are of the highest standard. Only the best Korean translators will work on your content. Each of them is an accredited language expert, have in-depth knowledge of the nuances of the Korean language, can identify and incorporate cultural differences in the translated content and have excellent knowhow of your industry. We guarantee that the message you want to communicate to your audience will make perfect sense to them. The flow of language, tone and messaging will remain intact in the translated content.
At Jonckers, we follow a three-step process to identify the ideally suitable translators for your content. Each of them undergo an extensive training, testing and certification process. This is carried out to determine their compatibility with the task at hand.
Our job doesn’t end with assigning the best translators to work on your content. We have developed a translation platform called WordsOnline. It has a number of built-in algorithms, specifically tasked with quality assessment. It tracks the translation of your content and identifies content that can potentially be mistranslated or incorrectly localized. You can see our prime translation services here. This content is subjected to quality assessment checks to eliminate any mistakes.
We do not deliver run-of-the-mill word-for-word translation. We put a lot of emphasis on localizing the translated content, keeping in mind both the audience and the industry the content belongs to. The translation of content meant for retail or e-commerce will be different from that meant for travel and tourism. These subtle attention to detail help us stand apart.
