How to use this tool
Enter modern Korean text and choose the capitalization style. Review words where liaison, assimilation or an established proper-name spelling matters because the mapping works component by component.
Results and examples
The same syllable follows the same mapping even when surrounding sounds change. Joining words therefore does not automatically adjust the output to match all changes in spoken pronunciation.
Limitations
- This is not a complete implementation of Korean romanization rules or passport-name review.
- Unsupported punctuation may be removed, so compare spacing and symbols with the original.

Frequently asked questions
Are contextual sound changes reflected?
The same syllable follows the same mapping even when surrounding sounds change. Joining words therefore does not automatically adjust the output to match all changes in spoken pronunciation.
Is the result an official passport spelling?
This is not a complete implementation of Korean romanization rules or passport-name review. Unsupported punctuation may be removed, so compare spacing and symbols with the original.
