Live Korean translation for your church service
First-generation members in Korean, the English ministry in English, and everyone in the same sanctuary.
Korean American churches often run two congregations in one building: a Korean-language service for the first generation and an English ministry for the second generation and beyond. Joint services — Easter, Thanksgiving, anniversaries, a visiting speaker — bring them together, and someone always ends up listening in their weaker language.
Live translation lets each person follow in their own. When the senior pastor preaches in Korean, the English ministry listens in English on their phones; when the English ministry pastor preaches, first-generation members listen in Korean. Families with an English-speaking spouse or in-laws can sit together at every service, not only the joint ones.
Which engines support Korean
| Engine | Translates into Korean | Korean-speaking preacher |
|---|---|---|
| Natural Voice (default) | Yes | Yes |
| Live Interpreter | Yes | Yes |
Both live engines translate into Korean. Natural Voice is the default; Live Interpreter mirrors your speaker's own voice and is one click away on every plan. Korean also works as the speaker's language on both engines. Listeners hear the translation seconds behind the speaker; the delay varies by engine, language, speech pace and connection.
When the sermon is in Korean
A Korean-language sermon translated into English is one of the most natural uses of the platform: set Korean as the speaker's language and enable English. Korean captions for the room are free on every plan.

How Korean speakers join on Sunday
- Your church shares its listener link: the QR code printed from the dashboard for the bulletin, a slide or the door, or the link itself in a text or an email.
- They open it in their phone's browser and choose Korean.
- They listen with earbuds or headphones, or read the live Korean captions on screen.
- Nothing to install, no account to create and no limit on listeners — and anyone can switch languages with one tap.

Can our joint Korean and English services use this?
Which engines support Korean?
Can we put Korean or English captions on the screen?
Each translated language uses one of your plan's language slots (Starter includes 2, Growth includes 4, Pro includes 6); captions in your speaker's own language are always free. Plans start at $39/month, and your first 4 service hours are free.
