Korean Advertising, PR, Marketing, Transcreation and Translation

We work with a lot of creative marketing and advertising companies providing Korean language versions of adverts, strap lines/end lines, tag lines, concepts, posters, brochures, slogans, online content, tv scripts and radio scripts. Our task is to deliver the message irrespective of language and culture.

Korean translation of advertising, PR and marketing material

If required, our specialist Korean translators can provide a faithful translation of the original source copy. During this process, the linguists will of course take into account localisation and cultural factors to ensure the material is just as appropriate to its new audience as it was to its original audience.

Our Korean translators’ experience in this sector means you will be able to use marketing material that’s as effective in the target language as it is in the original language.

Korean transcreation of advertising, PR and marketing material

Transcreation is the creative adaption of copy in the target language, so the text will be completely re-written in a foreign language. We have a team of Korean copywriters specialising in transcreation and adaption working in over 100 markets.

As part of the process, it will be important for us to understand your communication objectives as the meaning of the original message may change in the Korean language version, but the persuasive effect must remain as forceful.

Unless otherwise instructed, all Korean transcreations are reviewed by another linguist, and are back-translated. Any number of draft versions can be supplied for your feedback and comments until we get it just right.

Korean brand name linguistic analysis

Because some brand names and slogans have unexpected cultural connotations, we also have an experienced team of Korean brand checking analysts. They can ensure your logo or slogan will not be misinterpreted.
