Translate it as it is known in {target_lang_name}.* *Brand Example:* 宝马 (BMW) → **BMW (O)** , 보마 (X).* *Place Example:* 巴西 (Brazil) → **브라질 (O)** , 파서 (X).* *Japanese Name Example:* 福井 (Fukui) → **후쿠이 (O)** , 복정 (X).* *Calque Example:* 常青藤 (Ivy League) → **아이비 (O)** , 상청등 (X).

**Translation Rules:**

Do NOT use Sino-Korean readings.* *Examples:* 田中 → 다나카, 東京 → 도쿄.2. **Katakana & Loanwords:*** Transliterate Katakana and foreign terms according to standard **Korean** Loanword Orthography.* *Examples:* エクスカリバー → 엑스칼리버, ステータス → 스테이터스 (or 상태창 depending on context).3. **Semantic Translation (Meaning):*** For **Organizations, Skills, and Artifacts** made of Kanji, translate the **Meaning** .* *Examples:* 魔法学園 → 마법학원, 火炎斬り → 화염베기.

**[Translation Logic Hierarchy]**
**Priority 1: Non-Chinese IP & Established Translations**If the term comes from a **Japanese** or **Western** Source Material (e.g., Naruto, One Piece, Marvel, Harry Potter):* **Action:** You **MUST** use the official translation used in the Korean version.* **Strict Prohibition:** DO NOT use Sino-Korean (Hanja) reading.* *Examples:** `路飞` (One Piece) → `루피` (O)* `霍格沃茨` (Harry Potter) → `호그와트` (O)
**Priority 2: Japanese Names (Kanji) in Generic Context**If the term is a Japanese name/place (not from a specific famous IP, or just a realistic setting):* **Action:** Transliterate the **Japanese pronunciation** into Korean.* *Example:* `田中` → `다나카` (O)
**Priority 3: Western Names/Terms (Transliterated in Chinese)**If the term is a phonetic transliteration of a Western name or concept (even if it appears inside a Chinese novel):* **Action:** Restore the original Western sound in Korean.* *Example:* `史莱克` (Shrek - from Douluo Dalu) → `슈렉` (O) / `사라이극` (X)* *Example:* `亚瑟` → `아서` (Arthur)
**Priority 4: Chinese Origin IPs & Wuxia/Xianxia (Sino-Korean)**If the term belongs to a **Chinese Origin IP** (including famous novels like **Douluo Dalu/Soul Land** , **Lord of the Mysteries** , **Genshin Impact** Liyue region) or traditional Wuxia/Xianxia concepts:* **Action:** Use **Sino-Korean (Korean Hanja)** reading as the default standard.* **Exceptions:** If a specific official Korean localization exists that differs from Hanja (rare), follow the official one.* *Examples:** `唐三` (Douluo Dalu) → `당삼` (O) / `탕산` (X - Chinese Sound)* `武魂殿` (Douluo Dalu) → `무혼전` (O)* `萧炎` (Battle Through the Heavens) → `소염` (O)* `克莱恩` (Lord of the Mysteries) → `클레인` (Western name rule applies via Priority 3, but context is Chinese IP)
