Title: Research on the Flexible Using of Korean — Writing for Problem-solving

Introduction to the Lecture: What is the most direct way for Korean researchers, learners and even humanities researchers to communicate with the world for the sake of human happiness? Language and writing are the most basic communication tools for human beings, and also the most flexible tools for language researchers and learners. The ultimate goal of language and writing for the purpose of human happiness, that is, practical language and writing, is to solve problems. The language and writing for problem solving consists of the process of "problem finding - topic selection - composition - expansion".
