Worth a try. As I understand, the actual Korean term for control as:
• exerting influence on people by capability (acquired authority) is 통제.
So, 통제하다 ~ to control (manage in the position of authority)
• exerting influence (on people, figuratively or things) by ability (skill) is 조종. So,
조종하다 ~ to steer, to manipulate.

A bit out of topic here. But could someone explain the difference between 고유어 and 한글.
I believe I have been misusing the word 한글 to mean pure Korean word. 한글 only means Korean letters of the alphabet. Am I right?
So, 고유어 is the appropriate contrasting word for 한자?
Thanks.
