As a result, they were active in code conversion of various phenomena occurring with the inflow of foreign civilizations that cannot be expressed in Chosun Language (Korean) into foreign language. It was possible that Korean language had Josa(postposition), Eomi(the ending of a word) and Jeobmisa(suffix) which allow easy accommodation of foreign languages. Intellectuals often showed their face-saving formulas and their feelings accompanied by the message in code converted vocabularies, which is frequently found in the analysis of conversations of multi-language users.
