★ Hangul (Korean Word Processor)
HWP format is still used by many writers, including government offices, and it is a paid word processing program. However, it has many features, including tables, pictures, and various other functions, which makes it not simple. Recently, online services have also been provided. You can also save documents in the basic cloud and edit or view Korean documents for free.
★ Scrivener
This is the most famous paid writing program chosen by most writers. It seems particularly useful for writing and moving texts in units of chapters or for creating outlines. The price is a bit high. As of September 1, 2023, the Standard Licence for Windows and iOS is 88,000 won. Educational Licence is 74,800 won. Even if you apply a coupon with scrivener discount and buy it, it is a somewhat burdensome amount. It is possible to use it for free for one month, so you should try it out and purchase it officially if you like it. Recently,Scrivener for Beginnersa Korean book has also been published, so it would be good to refer to the book.

★ Darkroom (Writing Editor)
You can write in full screen. It is optimized for English, so Korean is a bit unstable. Anyway, when you run it, you can write in a black background with fluorescent green font. It seems good for coders, but anyway, it creates concentration and you can enter settings by right-clicking. It seems that it is not updated anymore... But why do I recommend it? Because it's beautiful.
★ FocusWriter (Writing Editor)
This is also similar to Darkroom, but it has a gray background. The menu appears when you hover the cursor over the top, and you can adjust various things. It has a timer + alarm function and you can set daily goals, but it is based on English typing, so it may be meaningless.
★ Typora (Writing Editor)
It is simple and free, so it is worth trying once. As of September 1, 2023, it has been commercialized and is provided for $14.99 (excluding tax) and a 15-day free trial is available. It supports MacOS, Windows, and Linux.
★ Evernote (Reference Material DB Construction)
Evernote provides apps, web, and PC programs. It is partially free and has a capacity limit. You can pay to use it if you want to add more capacity or add devices. Similar programs include Notion and Obsidian.

★ PicPick (Screen Capture)
It is good to save screenshots from PicPick to Evernote and briefly organize your thoughts and categorize them in a separate scrap folder, if you are not allowed to scrape text, if you need to see it with a picture, or if you need a layout. It is provided free of charge to all users, including corporations, organizations, and individuals. After installation, a fixed icon appears in the lower right corner. If you need to capture, right-click and select Screen Capture Mode > the mode you want to capture, and the window will open immediately. You can easily modify it without opening Paint, and there are no unnecessary ads.
