Translate a Korean video into Japanese subtitles
Korean to Japanese is one of the pairs where a dictionary gets you most of the way and then stops. Going from Korean to Japanese means moving from 해요체 into です・ます, which usually shortens the line slightly. The cue length does not need to change.
You get an SRT you can edit, or a copy of the video with the line already burned in.

What happens to your video
- Upload the file or paste a public link. Phone footage (HEVC/MOV) is read as it comes off the phone.
- The audio is transcribed first, with word-level timing, so every cue starts where speech starts.
- Each line is translated on its own. Timecodes are copied through and never rewritten.
- Download the SRT, or a copy of the video with the subtitles burned in at the original resolution.
Notes on the audio
- Going from Korean to Japanese means moving from 해요체 into です・ます, which usually shortens the line slightly. The cue length does not need to change.
- Korean also puts the verb last, and the verb ending sets the tone (formal, casual, written). The translation has to pick one register for the whole video.
- Japanese subtitles usually run one line per cue. When the English translation does not fit, break it into two cues rather than shrinking the font.

Questions
Do you translate through English?
The engine works from the Korean audio and produces Japanese directly; the English gloss is only for this page.
How accurate is it?
Korean subtitle lines tend to break around 14-16 characters. The English translation of the same line usually fits in 38-42 characters. On top of that, review proper nouns by hand before publishing.
Can I keep the Korean line as reference?
Yes, bilingual output keeps both lines in one file.
