You have a point there. I've been disappointed that Korean has been stuck in the 'In Progress' state. The Korean tech giants already have APIs to do common speech recognition. I hope more Korean grassroots efforts focus on tools that are open and accessible so it can be built scalable and better.

It looks like Korean still needs a fully localized interface and a sufficiently large collection of sentences to record. You can help by translating the interface https://pontoon.mozilla.org/projects/common-voice/ and collecting public-domain sentences https://commonvoice.mozilla.org/sentence-collector/ and of course by getting Koreans you know excited about the project so they'll help, too.

Thank you for pointing it out, I had no idea but I'd happy to contribute on this one. There is indeed a decent korean natural language process engine but it's severely tied to own ecosystem AFAIK.
