ㅜ /u/ | u | u | u | u | |
ㅓ /eo/ | 7 | N/A | 7 | 6 | |
ㅡ /eu/ | M | N/A | i` | N/A | TRUST!! Just trust me when I say /i`/ works great for /eu/. Unfortunately, the vowel ㅢ can only exist in ZH because of this. |
/w-/ | w | w | w | w | |
/y-/ | j | y | j | j | |
ㄱ /g/ | g | g | k | k | For lax consonants, find the closest equivalent, and in the duration and strength parameter, and shorten and weaken the consonant by at least half. |
ㄷ /d/ | d | d | t | t | ^^^ |
ㅈ /j/ | c | j | ts` | N/A | ^^^ |
ㅂ /b/ | b | b | p | p | ^^^ |
ㄲ /kk/ | g' | g | k | k | For tense consonants, find the closest equivalent, add /cl/ before the consonant, shorten /cl/'s duration by at least half. |
ㄸ /tt/ | d' | d | t | t | ^^^ |
ㅉ /jj/ | c' | j | ts\ | N/A | ^^^ |
ㅃ /pp/ | b' | b | p | p | ^^^ |
ㅋ /k/ | k | k | kh | kh | -For the aspirated consonants, find the closest equivalent. You usually don't need to edit it. |
ㅌ /t/ | t | t | th | th | ^^^ |
ㅊ /ch/ | ch | ch | ts\h | N/A | ^^^ |
ㅍ /p/ | p | p | ph | ph | ^^^ |
ㅅ /s/ | s | s | s | s | For ㅅ, weaken the consontant by at least half. For ㅆ, strengthen the consontant fully to 100%. |
ㅆ /s/ | s' | s | s | s | ^^^ |
ㅅ /sh/ | sh | sh | s` | N/A | ^^^ |
ㅆ /sh/ | sh' | sh | s` | N/A | ^^^ |
ㅎ /h/ | h | h | x | h | |
ㄹ- /r/ | r | r | l* | l* | If you need /r/ when you're using ZH or YUE, shorten /l/ to around 30~20%. |
ㄹ- /l/ | l | N/A | l | l | |
-ㄹ /l/ | rp | N/A | z` | l | If you're using /z`/, lower the strength paramter all the way down. This prevents /z`/ sounding too much like an english R, /ɹ̠/. |
ㄴ /n/ & /np/ | n & np | n | n | n | |
ㅁ /m/ & /mp/ | m & mp | m | m | m | |
ㅇ /ng/ | Np | N | N | N | |

Language Priority!
Q:What should be my base language for my SVP?
A: As long as it's JPN, ZH, or YUE, there's no problems. HOWEVER, I will give some advice based on my experience on making a shit ton of kpop covers. For any song before Gen3 K-pop, you should use ZH or YUE, for any song after, use JPN.
Q: When do I switch to other languages?
A: It depends with each hangeul block, and wither or not if the phonemes are unique to JPN, ZH, or YUE
eg 1: If the hangeul block was "간", use JPN, as "간" has phonemes that are not unique to JPN.
eg 2: If the hangeul block was "려", use ZH or YUE, as "려" has phonemes that are unique to JPN.
