"이런 문양, 기억나요?"En: Minji asked again, "Do you remember this symbol?"Ko: 진우는 고개를 끄덕였다.En: Jinwoo nodded.Ko: 그의 마음속에 오랜 기억이 떠올랐다.En: An old memory surfaced in his mind.Ko: 그 문양은 오래전에 헤어졌던 가족과 관련이 있었다.En: The symbol was related to his family, from whom he had parted long ago.Ko: 그 순간, 진우는 소포가 가족의 연락 신호일 수 있다는 확신이 들었다.En: At that moment, Jinwoo was convinced that the package might be a sign of communication from his family.Ko: 민지의 도움으로 진우는 소포의 발신인을 찾아낼 수 있었다.En: With Minji's help, Jinwoo was able to find the sender of the package.Ko: 소포는 그동안 연락이 끊겼던 아버지에게서 온 것이었다.En: It was from his father, with whom contact had been lost.Ko: 아버지는 매년 진우에게 메시지를 보낼 방법을 찾고 있었던 것이다.En: His father had been trying to find a way to send a message to Jinwoo every year.Ko: 진우는 마음이 복잡했다.En: Jinwoo felt a mix of emotions.Ko: 잊고 있던 가족의 존재가 다시 되살아났기 때문이다.En: The presence of family he had forgotten about was revived.Ko: 하지만 아버지의 진심이 담긴 소포를 받고, 진우는 가족의 중요성을 깨닫게 되었다.En: However, receiving the package filled with his father's sincerity, Jinwoo realized the importance of family.Ko: 그는 소포를 열고, 그것이 단순한 선물이 아니라 가족의 사랑이라는 것을 느꼈다.En: When he opened the package, he felt that it was not just a simple gift but that it contained the love of family.Ko: 경찰서를 나서며 진우는 생각했다. "가족이란, 잊힌 것 같아도 언제나 함께 있는 것이다."En: As he left the police station, Jinwoo thought, "Family is something that is always with you, even if it seems forgotten."Ko: 그리고 그는 오래된 가족의 연결을 이어가기 위한 첫걸음을 내딛었다.En: And he took the first step in rekindling his long-lost family connections.

Either they're using AI for the English speaker or the person speaking has absolutely no clue how any of the Korean words and names are pronounced. Not to mention the names are pronounced differently each time.
For a site that claims it is based on sociolinguistics, it seems to be missing a human component.
It was really hard to get past Jeyuungbookgoong for 경복궁.
