Doesn't this change it from About to Introduction?

Hi @jmeridth
Yes, you're correct. The change shifts the term from "About" to "Introduction." I made this adjustment because the direct translation of "About" into Korean ("대하여") can feel awkward without a clear subject.
In this context, "Introduction" ("소개") feels more natural. If we were to keep "About," it might work better with an explicit subject—similar to Japanese, e.g., "このサイトについて" ("About this site"), which translates to "이 사이트에 대하여" in Korean.
What do you think about changing it to "이 사이트에 대하여"?

I am good with Introduction. Thank you very much for explaining the context. Today I learned. 🙇

Most Korean websites use "소개" for "About." I believe this translation is more user-friendly for Korean users, so I'm submitting a PR.
