Does anyone know of the link for the Naver English-Korean online translator? or dictionary?

I've heard it's much better than google's (Which wouldn't take much) but I am having a hard time finding it.

Thanks

All of those translators are highly innacurate and give some funny results.

I've definitely found naver dictionary to be better than google translate.

Last week for example, I told a friend I couldn't meet him for dinner as planned, but that if he went out dancing I'd see him there. He replied that he'd see me there, then, and said "고민중임". I looked up 고민중 on google translate.. nothing. 고민 gave me "worry/anguish". I sent him back a message asking him what was worrying him... and in the meantime checked naver's dictionary, which told me 고민중 meant "debating".

Turns out he had just been debating whether to go dancing, but since I said I'd go, he would too.. except that I was thinking he had some problem. He got a really good laugh out of it and I definitely had a learning moment. Among other things, that naver dicitonary is better. I've had a few other times that I also noticed better translations from Naver, but none quite so funny.
