 Replying to [comment:2 nilovelez]:

 I believe that full translation of every element isn’t necessary, but
 there are key interface elements in the Photo Directory where Korean
 localization would significantly improve the user experience. For example,
 I would prioritize translating:

 Category, Color, Orientation, Sorts

 In fact, units like "px" or other standard values don’t need to be
 translated. Also, since English and Korean concepts don’t always have a
 1:1 mapping, there are times when keeping the original term actually helps
 with clarity.

 However, from a user experience perspective, even bilingual users often
 find localized UI labels more approachable and welcoming. So I think it's
 worth considering partial localization focused on key interface labels.

 > Right now It might not be the best moment, given the current shortage of
 meta contributors, but in the long term it might be a good idea to
 translate:
 > * Frontend strings: it is a small project
 > * Alt texts: those are context-less, easy to translate strings
 > * Tags and categories?: I have my doubts with these
