Traditionally, no punctuation marks were used in Korean. It was possible to separate sentences from each other according to the specific final form of predicative. However, it is easier to read text with full stops, commas, etc. For that reason, different punctuation marks can now be used:
Full stop (period)
저는 서울에서 살고 있습니다. "I live in Seoul."
Comma
그럼, 극장에 가자. "Then, let's go to the theater."
Quotation mark
"제가 실수를 했군요. 죄송합니다." "I made a mistake. I'm sorry."
Exclamation mark
엄마! "Mother!"
Question mark
오늘은 무슨 요일입니까? "What is the day today?"
