How to Add Korean Subtitles in DaVinci Resolve
Korean is written in Hangul and often drops English brand names and loanwords straight into a sentence, so a caption tool has to handle both scripts in the same line. Caption Pro transcribes your timeline with Whisper AI and lets you review the text before it is placed, so the Hangul and the occasional Latin word both come out right.

Unlike Japanese and Chinese, Korean does put spaces between words, but the spacing rules are strict and easy to get slightly wrong, which is one thing the review step is good for. Whisper transcribes Korean well, and where it mixes in an English word or a number, the review pass lets you confirm it before captions are placed, changing only the line you touch.
Hangul syllable blocks render with a font built for them: Noto Sans KR is a solid choice and displays cleanly in DaVinci Resolve Text+ templates, including lines that switch between Hangul and Latin characters. Line breaks fall between syllable blocks, so captions stay readable at short-form sizes.
This works for Korean YouTube, vertical short-form, K-content subtitled for a wider audience, and client delivery. You can also transcribe in another language and translate into Korean, or start from Korean and translate the captions into 100+ languages.
