With some investigation that we found this issue will be reproducible after version 3.47. Once you roll-back to 3.46 or earlier, then preview / publish all working well.
I have attached the file, it's simply created a new blank Storyline, with Korean text in there.
Thanks for reaching out and sharing your file! I opened it using Update 48 and was able to Preview and Publish the slide with no errors or crashes. Here's my Review 360 link.

We are currently experiencing the same issue when creating courses in Storyline. Recently our company changed fonts and since then Storyline crashes on a regular basis, especially when previewing and publishing courses. All files with the "old" font work perfectly fine.
In our case I am using Century and Noto Sans for most languages. Have you tried using Malgun Gothic for Korean? That works quite well for me.
It depends on our client's preferences, we have been using Noto Sans series fonts for Asian languages, and all were working fine, including Korean. We seldom use Malgun Gothic, but I have give it a quick test, it's also working well.
In my test project, the two fonts were also from Google's open license fonts. And preview or publishing will crash. Those two fonts were based on our client's requirement, so it's really not our call to change to other fonts.
Thanks for following up and adding those additional details! I've opened a case on your behalf with our support engineers to do some testing with your file and the custom fonts.
Once they're done, they'll reach back out with next steps!

Hi Ren, thanks for looking into this. I have checked the build you published, indeed it "looks" good....but.....
I noticed that the font is not the one I specified in my test project.
So, I went ahead to change all the text into the default font - Gulim, and I can preview the build and can publish it without problem.
Then this make me wonder if the actual issue is with custom font.
Could you use my previous project, and install the custom font, and try it again?

Our temporary workaround is roll back to v3.46.
