Thank you for this very helpful app. However, I would like to request a setting to see the notifications in original Korean. The English translations are actually very bad and hard to understand. There are many foreigners (like me) that can use a little Korean. With the option to see the original Korean, we can translate the parts we don't understand by ourselves. Currently, I believe most foreigners will not be able to understand the poor English translations and this could be dangerous.

EDIT: Thank you for responding! Please make it more obvious for what areas I'm getting notifications (like a map), and use regular notifications rather than your custom full-screen ones. ORIGINAL: Ridiculous. I get a full-screen notification of some "emergency" every 30min. It turns my phone on in bed and in my pocket and keeps the screen on. And the alerts are machine-translated so half the time they don't make any sense. I'm reviewing this while the COVID-19 Coronavirus outbreak is happening, but this is complete overkill. The notification "XYZ location is getting regularly disinfected" should go away, or be a regular notification, not full screen blocking everything.

Overall, a good apps for foreigners who is living in Korean. It successfully delivers all important messages from the government. Although the translation occasionally is not grammatically correct, it is not a big deal. Necessary apps for crisis time, like in Covid-19 pandemic.
