Unlike the mix of Hangeul and Chinese characters used in the official documents during the time of ruling under Japanese imperialism, which included one syllable dependent Chinese character roots, paragraphs in Chinese characters, and one syllable adverbs and determiner acting as an affix, the mix of Hangeul and Chinese characters used in the letters and memo were mostly independent Chinese characters labeled in Chinese characters. The style of mixed Hangeul and Chinese characters used in the letters and the memos were influenced by the mixed style of Hangeul and Chinese characters used in the official documents, written by the translators. The Hangeul letters and memos written by the translators used Hasyosyeo style of writing to show the reader the honorable respect. The sender used the Hasyosyeo style of writing to everyone, regardless of their rank, their work experience, and their job title. The sender put the receiver and their organization on the highest honor while putting themselves at the bottom. This type of writing style was formed while the translators took the responsibility of treating diplomacy issues and relationship between the nations with the highest honor.
