Chaeyoung M.
Comicbook & Webtoon Localization Typesetter
I’m a freelance webtoon typesetter and localization artist based in Seoul, South Korea. Over the past 3 years, I’ve worked on over 40 titles in multiple languages—including Japanese, English, Spanish, and Chinese—across platforms like Tapas, Manta, KakaoPage, and Piccoma. I specialize in font styling, title localization, and visual editing for scroll-based webtoons as well as JPG-based manga typesetting, which involves cleaning, retouching, and localization. I’m open to both individual and corporate clients, and I’m also interested in working on original (non-localized) typesetting projects. For clients exporting comics from English or Japanese into Korean, I can provide proofreading and second-stage editing during the typesetting process to improve the natural flow and accuracy of the language. Tools: Photoshop (primary), Clip Studio Paint, Illustrator Languages: Korean (native), English (working), Japanese (reading level for typesetting) Let’s work together to make your story shine—visually and culturally :)
