Improving Korean NER model accuracy by including particles in entity annotations

Body:

When training a Named Entity Recognition (NER) model for Korean using spaCy, I've encountered an interesting phenomenon that significantly affects the model's accuracy. I'm using the updated NER pipeline to create the configuration file.

Issue:
The model's accuracy improves substantially when I include particles (조사, josa) along with the annotated nouns in the training data.

Example:

Lower accuracy: 김철수가 왔다.
Higher accuracy: 김철수가 왔다.

In the second example, the particle "가" is included within the entity annotation.

Questions:

Is this a known behavior for Korean NER models in spaCy?
Are there any best practices or recommendations for handling particles in Korean NER annotations?
How might this affect the model's performance on texts where particles may vary or be omitted?
Are there any potential drawbacks to this approach that I should be aware of?

I would appreciate any insights, explanations, or suggestions on how to best approach this issue while maintaining the integrity and flexibility of the NER model for Korean language processing.
