using IronOcr;

var Ocr = new IronTesseract();

// Specify that we want to use the Korean OCR capability
Ocr.Language = OcrLanguage.Korean;

// Create an OCR input, loading the image from the specified path
using (var Input = new OcrInput(@"images\Korean.png"))
{
    // Use the OCR engine to read the text from the image
    var Result = Ocr.Read(Input);

    // Once reading is complete, extract the text from the result
    var AllText = Result.Text;
    // AllText now contains the text recognized from the image
}
// Ensure you have installed the IronOCR Korean language package
using IronOcr;

var Ocr = new IronTesseract();

// Specify that we want to use the Korean OCR capability
Ocr.Language = OcrLanguage.Korean;

// Create an OCR input, loading the image from the specified path
using (var Input = new OcrInput(@"images\Korean.png"))
{
    // Use the OCR engine to read the text from the image
    var Result = Ocr.Read(Input);

    // Once reading is complete, extract the text from the result
    var AllText = Result.Text;
    // AllText now contains the text recognized from the image
