I'll explain South Korea's document format war's winner 'hwpx', the HWP Issue.
In South Korea, Both OWPML(hwpx) and ODF are Document format standards in the public sector.
The Republic of Korea government adopted OpenDocument Format as a part of Korean Industrial Standards KS X ISO/IEC 26300 in 2007. Also, IT adopted OWPML(hwpx) format as a part of Korean Industrial Standards KS X 6101 in 2011.
But, In South Korea's academic field, the public & private sector, It is ?widely using HWP as a document standard. They are still made and distributed in .hwp format. But, Since 2021, the South Korea government has started to choose 'hwpx' instead of 'hwp' format.
This year, Many of the South Korea government's ministries and state-own agencies widely use 'hwpx'.
So, I briefly talk about 'hwp' and 'hwpx' file format structures
