Korean Proofreading and Editing Job

Company

Wordvice – Global Editing & AI Language Solutions Leader

Job Description

Wordvice, a leading international editing and language services company, is seeking a Freelance Korean Editor to join our global team. This role focuses on refining Korean-language content—including marketing copy, website text, and client-facing communications—so that the final output is polished, persuasive, and professional.

Unlike simple proofreading, this position requires editors to actively rewrite and adapt content to make it sound natural, engaging, and audience-appropriate in Korean. Many of the projects will involve marketing and web content where style, readability, and cultural nuance are just as important as grammatical accuracy.

Responsibilities

Key Responsibilities – Editing & Rewriting
  • Edit, rewrite, and adapt Korean texts to ensure fluency, clarity, and impact.
  • Transform literal or awkward passages into idiomatic, compelling Korean prose.
  • Enhance tone and style for marketing, web, and business audiences while preserving the author’s intent.
  • Deliver polished content suitable for publication on websites, landing pages, promotional materials, and other client-facing platforms.
  • Additional (Optional) Responsibilities – Translation & SEO Review
  • Compare source English texts with their Korean translations (AI-generated or human-translated).
  • Identify and correct mistranslations, omissions, or inconsistencies.
  • Ensure that the target content accurately conveys the meaning, intent, and nuance of the source.
  • Review web and marketing content from an SEO perspective (keyword usage, readability, localization nuances) to enhance visibility and engagement.
  • Qualifications

  • Native proficiency in Korean.
  • Strong command of English preferred.
  • Professional experience in editing or copywriting, especially for marketing, business, or web content.
  • Proven ability to not only correct language errors but also restructure and rewrite for fluency, readability, and audience engagement.
  • Strong attention to detail and commitment to producing high-quality, client-ready content.
  • Why Join Us?

  • Work with a global network of editors on diverse, high-impact projects.
  • Flexible freelance schedule with competitive pay.
  • Opportunity to shape multilingual marketing and web content for international clients.
  • Contribute to an innovative AI + human hybrid editing solution that combines speed and quality.
  • Position Type

  • Freelance, remote-based role with flexible hours.
  • Compensation

  • Please indicate your expected pay rate when submitting your application.
