사전이 바로 떠서 넘 편해요!! 넷플로 외국어 공부할 때 자막 한영 같이 띄울 수 있고 특히 외국인 친구한테 한국어>영어로 설명할 때 그냥 사전이 바로 떠서 넘 편한 거 같아요! 완전 추천합니다 This extension is so convenient! When you don't know the meaning of certain Korean words on Youtube/Netflix, this extension immediately shows the word's meaning. You can save tons of time on googling!

넷플릭스나 유튜브 보면서 자막 두 언어로 설정하고 필요할 때 원하는 단어 찾아 볼 수 있어서 좋아요 번역기나 사전 들어가서 검색 안해도 되니까 엄청 편리한 듯 합니다! It's good to look up new words and phrase while I watching Netflix or Youtube contents. As a Korean speaker, It's also helpful to learn both Chinese and English without searching dictionary.

This extension is so great not only for Korean/Chinese learners but also for English learners who are Korean/Chinese speakers! Very simple, so easy to use. It's nice to be able to turn on both English/Korean subtitles when watching Netflix.
