Glossary Drift in Korean Messaging Rollouts
By Noah Briggs
Glossaries seldom die loudly; they rot through silent Google Doc forks. We fix this via weekly bilingual diff rituals.

Use audio snippets sparingly yet deliberately to capture tonal nuance; text alone hides sarcasm bleed.
Retire superseded phrases with archival tags instead of deletes so analytics queries remain attributable.
