Dub Korean to English while it is still playing
Live streams, variety shows, gaming broadcasts and business calls, translated into English about a second behind the speaker. No upload, no processing wait, no subtitle track required.

A live stream, a broadcast replay, a lecture, or a meeting.

Then pick subtitles, spoken dubbing, or both.
Live streams are the whole point
A huge share of Korean video that people actually want is live: streams, broadcasts, launches, matches. None of it has a finished file to upload to a dubbing service, which is why batch tools are simply the wrong shape for it.
AnyDub starts translating from the moment audio plays and stops when you close the tab, so a six hour stream costs you nothing but the minutes you watch.
Install on ChromeSpeed and slang handled from the audio
Fast conversational Korean, heavy slang, and the constant borrowing from English that runs through gaming and entertainment content all arrive as sound rather than as a transcript someone else got wrong first. Honorific levels shift mid-conversation and that is fine too.

Reactions, timing and tone are most of the entertainment value in live Korean content. The mixer keeps the original audible at any level underneath the English track, so you follow the words without losing the moment.

Why Korean subtitles always arrive late
Korean entertainment is subtitled well and subtitled slowly. Fansub and official teams turn around an episode in hours or days, which is remarkable work and still means the live broadcast, the launch event and the stream go by untranslated.
Business is the quieter half. Korean manufacturing, semiconductor and display suppliers run internal briefings and technical sessions in Korean, and the partners who need to follow them are not going to get an interpreter scheduled for every call.
Both cases want the same thing: translation now, at the moment of watching, rather than a better translation later. That is the trade this makes, and it is explained in more detail on the tools comparison page.
Questions about this language pair
Does it work on Korean live streams?
Yes, and that is the case it is built for, since a live stream has no finished file for a batch dubbing tool to process.
Do I need Korean subtitles on the video first?
No. AnyDub transcribes and translates the spoken audio directly.
Does it cope with slang and fast speech?
Yes. It works from the audio rather than from someone else's transcript, so casual, fast and slang-heavy speech is translated as spoken.
Can I hear the original Korean too?
Yes. The mixer sets the source voice anywhere from muted to full volume.
Does it work on Korean business calls?
Yes, on Zoom, Google Meet, Microsoft Teams and Webex.
What does it cost?
There is a free tier. Paid plans add monthly minutes and never restrict languages.
