Is Korean really a low-resource language?
By Wonik Cho, Youngsook SongThe claim that Korean is "low-resource" is only half true: the data is not missing, just scattered, closed off, and poorly known. Drawing on the Open Korean Corpora report, this article sorts 100 open Korean corpora into 10 categories and marks each by three criteria—documentation, usage, and redistribution. The result is a single map that lets anyone see, at a glance, what Korean data exists and how it can actually be used.1 July 2026
