Li Haizhen, founder of South Korean Internet giant Naver, found that the 311 earthquake in Japan caused many people to be unable to contact their families in time, so she launched LINE instant messaging software in Japan, and its "read" function is designed to ensure the safety of people in the event of a disaster. If the message sent shows that it has been read, it means that the other party is temporarily safe and can open the phone to see the message you sent.
