Dear Japan

I wish hanja was still commonly used like 20 years ago. It makes reading a lot quicker. In fact academic books, journals and essays even now use a lot of hanja.

So do Koreans have to learn Kanji to read academic books?

Try using spaces, Pokemon for the 3DS uses only kana and the kids ain't complaining.

>Pokemon
It's a fucking game for kids.
Of course it's easy to understand the context.

Any learned person should have a decent knowledge of Chinese characters, but most people nowadays can barely write their own name. But even if they can't read/write Chinese characters, sino-korean vocabulary is used almost exclusively when trying to sound smart or formal.

why mixed characters (hanja and hangul and kanji and kana) look more aesthetic than just chinese???

The same reason you still using imperial mesures
