[Beginner] Mastering MySQL, from Basics to Practical Application

This course is designed to help even those new to MySQL understand it easily, starting from the basic concepts of DBMS and progressing step-by-step to the ability to write SQL that can be applied in real-world practice. To solve the problems learners frequently encounter (e.g., SQL syntax is difficult, not knowing how to write queries, or not understanding the flow of data processing), the course is structured with repetitive theory and practice, helping you naturally build your skills through a hands-on approach. In particular, the focus is not on simple memorization of syntax, but on understanding "why it is written this way" through the process of handling actual data.
