Why are you showing the title in Korean?

I don't understand. I don't want to see Any Korean in IMDb.

Please, Fix this problem.

The iPhone app has the same problem.

@DOYOON Thanks for the problem report. Since you are seeing this problem on both the site and the iOS app, the most likely explanation is that we do not have the English titles for the titles which you are seeing in Korean. 

Please provide 2-3 links to the title pages on IMDb where you are still seeing Korean titles and we will take a look.

Please note that language settings on IMDb require both a country and a language so we presume you have selected US-English, in which case the titles will require an AKA title for the US to be recorded in IMDb for the English title to be displayed.

@DOYOON​ Thanks.  This is strange.  It is possible that one of the steps on https://help.imdb.com/article/imdb/common-issues/why-is-imdb-displaying-differently-on-my-browser/GF2ZAR69V859XLHF will help here.

Please can you upload a screen-grab of https://www.imdb.com/preferences/general if the above does not help.

No problem on PC. It's probably a cache issue with my browser.

However, on the iPhone, it appears in Korean as shown in the screenshot in the link below.

@DOYOON​ Good to hear that the site itself is now fine.  Please check the settings in your iPhone app by taping the “You” tab in the lower right of any page, then tap the settings icon in the upper right and select “Display” from the menu.  You should set the “Region” menu to United States (optionally you can set the “App Language” to English too, but it is the “Region” setting which controls the title display):

If you prefer to see the original titles in the country of origin you can leave Region / App Language on South Korea / Korean and instead enable “Show titles in original language” on the same page. 

Hope this helps.
