I find summaries better than the original text, and videos are easier to find than text.
For dangerous adults thrown into a lazy world
Literacy Prescriptions from Korea's Top Literacy Experts

This book is for 'people who want to read properly.'
In particular, it focuses on reading for life, reading for work, and reading for communication, focusing on the literacy of adults.
We report on the current state of literacy among adults in our country and examine practical examples of misreading that we experience at least once in our daily lives, along with interesting quizzes.
And we will explore the meaning and structure contained within it and discover together how we fall into the error of 'misreading'.
This is a workbook of sorts, written by Korea's top literacy experts for anyone who wants to read properly.

Even in this day and age of smartphone dominance, the environment for reading books, the situations requiring writing, and the context for producing and sharing information have all changed, but literacy remains a problem for us living today.
Here, the word 'problem' implies something very 'important' before it becomes a headache.
It is clear that any problem that someone must ponder, analyze, and solve, in other words, is of equal value to us.
“I don’t read books anymore, and I don’t need to read them anymore.
But you're still living well.
Literacy is only necessary for children to take exams and get into good schools.
It's hard to readily agree with the easy excuse, "It would be nice if we could do it, but we don't have to."
Literacy remains a valuable skill for adults, and its meaning and value need to be continually re-evaluated to fit our changing lives.

In fact, email communication places greater responsibility on the writer.
If you are an email writer, you should listen to the claim that “many people suffer from being bombarded with emails at all times.”
I have to keep in mind that my emails may be stressful for some people.
Anyone who writes emails for planning, market research, merchandising, advertising, sales promotion, or public relations for their company's products should pay more attention to this claim.

How would you feel if you saw the phrase, "You may be charged a surcharge of up to 37,500 won, which is up to 30 times the normal subway fare of 1,250 won." Would you appreciate knowing exactly how much you'll have to pay if you fare evade? In fact, the primary purpose of such language isn't to provide accurate information using numbers, but rather to serve as a warning to deter fare evasion.
If we were to go a step further and say, "For fare evasion, we may charge a surcharge of up to 3,000%," wouldn't the surcharge for fare evasion seem even more significant? Expressing it as a percentage is more quantifiable than expressing it as a multiple.

Many of the materials you frequently see online are difficult to verify, including basic information like who the author is, who shared the information, and whether the photos or materials used in the article are authentic.
So we need to look at who is behind the information we're seeing, what expertise and perspective they have, and what interests they have in the matter.
Even if we can't answer such questions precisely right now, such reasonable doubts guide us into a process of careful reading that examines the material more closely.

Reading the premise means reading what you and the other person are basically assuming.
At this time, the key is to read what is similar and what is different in each other's premises and assumptions (the premises and assumptions of the writer and the premises and assumptions of the reader).
By looking at each person's assumptions through the examples above, we can understand what each person assumes when judging their own writing ability.
Furthermore, it can provide insight into how people approach their own views on writing ability.
And we can also see that connecting different premises to understand the premise can be a great help in understanding the complexities of controversial issues.
Some people believe that writing ability can be judged solely on school test scores, but analyzing other people's claims reveals another premise.
Preliminary reading is a powerful way to approach specific problems and topics from different perspectives that I hadn't considered before.

As we go about our daily lives, there are countless contracts we agree to without even realizing it.
Many people habitually agree to something without even knowing exactly what the contract is or what the contractual relationship is.
Not only in online shopping malls, but also in various financial contracts including insurance contracts and savings accounts, we habitually agree to 'all (full) consent' and that is how contracts are made.
However, when a contract is formed by habitually giving 'all (or all) consent' to save immediate effort, it becomes legally binding.
In the worst case scenario, you may suffer financial, material, and emotional damage that was completely unexpected at the time of the transaction.
Even if it's a hassle, reading one more line can reduce the loss.

So how should we read the law? First, it's important to check the details.
When we read, we see details so quickly that we don't even notice them.
However, when reading the details of the law, it is better to slow down your reading speed and check the contents slowly and accurately.
Because the law is a very elaborately crafted text.
Misunderstanding or missing seemingly minor details, or even applying the law incorrectly, can lead to unintentional harm or even further confusion.
The sophistication of the law makes it difficult to read, and a reader who knows it needs to check the details of the law accurately and meticulously.
