Overview

Korean language services

Korean is spoken by about 80 million people, and Los Angeles County has the largest Korean population of any county in the United States, anchored by Koreatown and extending through the San Fernando Valley, Orange County, and the South Bay. Korean is a California court-designated language, and it ranks among the most requested languages for medical, legal, workers' compensation, and business interpreting in Southern California.

Korean uses a system of honorifics and speech levels that signal respect and relationship, which an interpreter must render appropriately in depositions, negotiations, and patient consultations. Our Korean interpreters are trained in both consecutive and simultaneous modes and regularly support corporate meetings for Korean technology, automotive, and entertainment companies with California operations.

Korean is written in Hangul, an alphabet that is straightforward to typeset but requires native fluency for accurate translation. Certified Korean translation covers family relation certificates, resident registration documents, contracts, patents, clinical documentation, and marketing content, each delivered with a certificate of accuracy and, where required, notarization.

  • Korean is a California court-designated language; court-certified interpreters are available.
