How to Set Up
Summary: [Preferences] → [Language & region] → Select [Korean] from the [Language] list.
When the language is already Korean: [Settings] → [Language & Region] → Select [Korean] from the [Language] list.
1. Click on the Slack workspace name in the top left corner.
A Slack workspace refers to the name of the new workspace you create in Slack. ('Slack workspace' is not the official term.)
A menu will appear with options such as 'Invite', 'Create Channel', 'Settings', and 'Administration'.
2. Click on [Preferences].
3. Click on [Language & region].
4. Select [Korean] from the [Language] list.
Other Notes
When you change the language, the help documents and settings screens that appear on the web page are also changed to the corresponding language.
In other words, if you set it to English, the help documents and settings screens will be provided in English, and if you set it to Korean, the help documents and settings screens will also be provided in Korean.
It also affects system notifications, Slackbot messages, and join emails.
