Understanding Korean MPE files
Standard South Korean, based on Seoul speech, dominates broadcast media and is what most speech recognition models are trained on. Regional dialects such as Gyeongsang, Jeolla, and Chungcheong differ in intonation and vocabulary, and Jeju speech is divergent enough that linguists often classify it as a separate language.

Frequently asked questions
How to improve the accuracy of your Korean transcripts?
Start by improving the quality of the Korean MPE file that you upload to Sonix. Please use high quality recording equipment, recording in a quiet environment, and ensure that your speakers are speaking clearly to ensure that your transcript is as accurate as possible.
Any advice for the Korean MPE file that I upload?
Yes, please do not over-compress or over-filter the audio track of your Korean MPE file. By uploading a high quality version of your audio, we can give you the best level of accuracy.
Aside from MPE, do you support other types of audio/video files?
Yes, we do! You can convert the following file types in Korean with Sonix:
Is an MPE file the same as an MPEG file?
Effectively yes — MPE is an alternate extension for MPEG video, so the contents are the same kind of MPEG stream. Renaming the file to .mpg or .mpeg usually lets software that expects those extensions open it.
Why won't my MPE file play on my computer?
Some modern players do not recognize the .mpe extension even though they support MPEG video. Renaming the file to .mpg or opening it in a player such as VLC usually resolves the issue.
Can Sonix transcribe Korean audio and video files?
Yes. Upload your Korean recording and Sonix generates a transcript in Hangul that you can edit in the browser alongside the synced audio, then export to formats like DOCX, PDF, and SRT.
Does Korean transcription handle regional dialects like Gyeongsang or Jeolla?
Automated models are trained primarily on Seoul-standard Korean, so they generally handle regional accents but strong dialect speech may need more editing. You can review and correct those passages in the synced transcript editor.
Can I translate a Korean transcript into English?
Yes. After transcribing, you can translate the Korean transcript into English and other languages within Sonix, then export the translated documents or subtitles.
Trusted by professionals worldwide
It really accelerated my work and I was amazed by the accuracy, especially given that the video featured only non-native speakers.
Seriously the best transcript I’ve ever seen. And the synchronized editor is amazing. I will be using again and I will be sharing with my friends :)
