# Headline → Supporting Points / 한 줄 메시지 → 근거 나열

- English name: Headline → Supporting Points
- Korean name: 한 줄 메시지 → 근거 나열
- Selection category: synthesis
- Use when: Use when one strong headline or thesis can organize several supporting points.
- Avoid when: Avoid when the topic is exploratory and the thesis is not settled.

## Writing Pattern

**Use a fixed major-section sequence and build with this structure**

- **Introduction**: Present the headline—your one-line core claim
- **Body**: Provide 3–4 supporting points for the message
- **Conclusion**: Reaffirm the headline and give an action or proposal
- Use credible sources for support: objective data, statistics, cases, expert quotes, analogous comparisons.

**Each major section should include**

- Section heading
- Core paragraph purpose (1–2 sentences)
- Ensure the supports connect naturally so the reader clearly understands and accepts the headline.

## Example Writing Outline

1. **Headline**: Remote work is an innovation that raises both productivity and employee satisfaction. (Headline)
2. **Support 1 — Productivity**: 78% of companies adopting remote work report productivity gains. (Supporting Point)
3. **Support 2 — Lower Attrition**: Flexible work environments increase loyalty and tenure. (Supporting Point)
4. **Support 3 — Cost Savings**: Smaller office footprints can cut annual operating costs by 30%. (Supporting Point)
5. **Conclusion and Proposal**: Remote work is essential for sustainable transformation; adopt it in phases.

## Writing Notes

- Make the headline strong and concise; it should attract attention.
- Ensure support points are diverse, credible, and organically tied back to the headline.
- In the conclusion, synthesize the support and present a clear action or decision path.
- Avoid vagueness—prefer concrete numbers and cases.
