Ko-ToxicWebQ: Korean Toxic Web Query Dataset

Ko-ToxicWebQ is a dataset consisting of 47,714 real-world Korean web search queries annotated for harmfulness and obfuscation strategies. The queries are extracted from Microsoft Bing search logs and labeled according to culturally specific toxicity categories and linguistic evasion tactics. The dataset is designed for evaluating moderation systems and training language models to handle adversarial or sensitive inputs in Korean.

⚠️ Warning: This dataset includes explicit, potentially offensive, and legally sensitive content. Researchers must take necessary precautions when using or sharing model outputs trained on this dataset.

Ethics Statement

We recognize that providing real examples of this content may be uncomfortable or distressing. These samples, however, are critical for developing robust detection systems that can mitigate harm and prevent the circulation of illicit content. We urge researchers to handle this dataset responsibly, with appropriate safeguards for user well-being.

Since conceptions of toxic or illegal content vary widely across jurisdictions, we emphasize that our annotations are grounded in South Korean laws and societal norms. We neither endorse nor condone the content found in these queries; our sole aim is to enable the development of more effective toxicity detection methods.
