It's Hangul that you use every day, but the spelling is confusing, and there are times when you wonder if there is anything to replace the foreign language you use without your knowledge.

There are Korean language guards who work silently for us like this.

Reporter facial expression met them for Hangul Day.

[Reporter]
You can see a sentence on my right.

I asked citizens directly if there were any spelling errors.

[Kim Eun-jung / Sillim-dong, Seoul] ("Which part do you think is wrong?""Not a few days, but a few days!"

[Kim Hyun-woo / Seo-gu, Incheon: I think the few days are wrong.... Since there are a few days, I think months will probably be....]

When I write, chat on social media, or send text messages, I think about how to spell it at least once.

In this case, you can immediately solve your questions by using the "Korean 365" SNS channel operated by the National Institute of the Korean Language.

I personally asked if there was anything wrong in the sentence I showed you earlier.

In less than five minutes, it tells you the correct spelling along with relevant language regulations.

I wonder if it's an AI chatbot with machine-like accurate and fast response speed, but
It is 11 Korean language experts who give
answers.

[Choi Kyung-eun / 12 years of experience as counseling researcher: Artificial intelligence? Are you a person? If you ask me this question, a researcher from the National Institute of Korean Language will answer it directly....]

From phone calls to online counseling, the number of counseling sessions they are in charge of a year reaches 180,000.

I handle close to 100 consultations every day, but I feel rewarded with a word of thanks from citizens.

[Choi Eun-jung / 12 years of experience as counseling researcher] The writer asked me questions almost every day, and he sent us a book when it was completed, and I was so proud..]

There are also guards that refine unfamiliar foreign languages into easy Korean.

We change meetings to meetings, meetings, and agendas to agendas, and we work hard every day to reduce unconscious use of foreign words and help smooth communication, such as "cru" that is often used these days as "meeting" or "colleague" and "omakase" as "kitchen specialty."

[Park Jung-ah / Researcher of the National Institute of Korean Language: The chilling effect has been refined into the atrophy effect. Best settled case is the English word 'reply' refined into 'comment'....]

Korean language guards who silently work hard in places that are not visible.

Every day is Hangul Day for them.
