And in Chapter 3, this study examined the use of punctuation marks analyzed the use of the exclamation mark introduction of punctuation marks at that time, focusing on the first issue of “Changjo (1919),” a magazine in the 1920s when punctuation marks were widely used after Ridel's Grammaire Coreenne (1881), which refers to the punctuation mark among domestic grammar books for the first time, and "Joseon Language Grammar (1925)” by Lee Sang-chun who mentioned the punctuation mark for the first time among our scholars. Through this, this study attempted to reveal the historical context in which there is a disagreement about the problem of the separate setting of the sentence type of exclamatory sentence as well as the change from the punctuation mark rule of the written language centered to that of the spoken language centered.
