I am Ko Jeong-wook, a representative children's literature author and self-proclaimed, widely recognized as Korea's greatest writer. I have published the most books among authors with over 350 volumes, received the love of 4.5 million readers, and travel the nation 365 days a year as a top-rated lecturer and writing judge. *Guide Dog Tansil*, *The Boy Who Carries the Bag*, *My Very Special Older Brother*, *The Grumpy Jaeseok*, *One-Line Writing Class a Day for Children*... Among my works loved by so many, *The Boy Who Carries the Bag* can be considered my representative masterpiece, even being included in elementary, middle, and high school textbooks. After studying in the science track through high school and switching to the humanities track for university, I realized that writing skills can grow significantly through effort and guidance. However, in the reality of our schools, there is no opportunity for our children to receive proper guidance on writing. Even teachers tend to focus only on proofreading and editing when asked to review their work. The best way to learn proper writing is from a writer like me who has extensive experience over a long period. I will guide my child to develop a hobby for writing, thereby observing objects with curiosity, learning patience and perseverance, and fostering original and sound thinking.

<삼국지> 저자 직강 : 우리는 어떻게 살아야 할까요? '나'를 이끄는 힘을 찾는 방법을 알아봐요!
It is an honor to meet Author Go Jeong-wook at Kookoo! He is the author of my child's favorite books from childhood until now. Thanks to your books, my child was able to fill up their school reading logs to the brim. Thank you! We are also starting to read Greek and Roman Mythology this week. Thank you for making the Three Kingdoms, which we used to only read as comics, into a text-heavy book that is easy to read. Your books are so cheerful and warm, and even as an adult, I really enjoyed reading them! My child said they wanted to read the book you recommended right after class. Author Go Jeong-wook, who helped my child discover these books of a lifetime! I will always be cheering for you!

작가님께 배우자! 학교에서 바로 써먹는 4가지 필수 장르 글쓰기
The teacher led the class in a funny way, so it wasn't boring at all and was really fun. I found the point gift the funniest and liked it the most. At first, when they mentioned Shinsegae Department Store, I thought it might be a cultural gift certificate, but It was so, so funny to find out it was an all-access pass for the escalators at Shinsegae Department Store. Even if it feels a little unfamiliar at first, you'll realize this teacher is a good person as the class progresses! So, if you are reading this and haven't yet taken Author Go Jeong-wook's writing class, I highly recommend you sign up!

고정욱 삼국지 완독클럽 : 처음이니까 쉽게 읽자!
My child loves the Three Kingdoms so much that we have four different versions at home😅😅😅, but they like Teacher Go Jeong-wook's version the best. They keep asking me to buy the "Grumpy Jae-seok" version, but since they are in 4th grade😅😅 I haven't bought it for them yet, but I guess I should get it now haha. So, they have been looking forward to this class so much. They have loved it since 3rd grade and read it over and over again, but it still feels like they haven't quite organized their thoughts yet, so I hope they can enjoy organizing them through this class. They said the first class was very fun♡. They took notes too hastily, so they said they would reorganize them~
