Koreans are using Hangul, but many people are using it wrongly these days. They use Korean words that are out of the original Korean language, such as slang, abbreviations, and coarse language. Some people have a habit of it, but others often think it is great to look strong. So, Guyeong Middle School in Ulsan has a Korean Love Project for its students on Hangul Day.

The purpose of this Hangul Love Project is to provide awareness of the correct use of Hangul and its current status. Hangul Love Project is for all first and third graders of Guyeong Middle School. There are many projects for love in Hangul, including writing a backlog, making a book, making a song, making a poster, making an advertisement, and many more. Hangul Love Project is a one-day project, but in one day, most students produce very good works. Whatever the activity you want to do in Hangul Love Project is to be in line with your aptitude, and you should participate voluntarily.

Before the project, all students will watch videos related to Hangul love. In order to do the Hangul Love Project, most students need to know how to use Hangul. Also, they should know how Hangul came into being. In doing so, students will wonder how they are using Hangul, and if their friends are using Hangul correctly. Therefore, after the Hangul Love Project, many students will reflect on their actions towards Hangul and improve their behavior and habits.

There are many ways to change students' language habits, but this project is indispensable, especially for students who use a lot of slang, coarse language, and abbreviations. After this project, many students will have behavioral changes, and their perceptions will change. Many other schools besides Guyeong Middle School are carrying out a similar project even if it is not Hangul Love Project.
