Why are my search results inaccurate in Korean?

Since Algolia’s relevance matches words in the query with words in the records, it needs to identify which set of characters represent a word for a given query.

When we receive a query in Korean, we segment it into its composing words. However, Algolia's word segmentation is not fully supported in Korean at this time, the words are not properly identified by the engine, the search results can be inaccurate when only a few characters are typed.
