First Claim
1. A message transmission method in a system connected to a plurality of user terminals through a network, the message transmission method comprising:
- a) the system receiving user ID information and a wireless telephone number from a first user'"'"'s terminal having a client processing device;
b) the system performing first authentication on the first user depending on whether the user ID information is stored in a database for storing information on users who are available for a service;
c) when the first authentication is finished, performing second authentication on the first user in cooperation with a portable terminal having the wireless telephone number;
d) receiving a message and at least two receiving designated information from the client processing device of the first user terminal having undergone the first and second authentication; and

Abstract
The present invention relates to a bidirectional message transmission system and method. The system performs first authentication on a first user based on user ID information provided by a first user terminal connected to the wired Internet, and performs second authentication in cooperation with a first portable terminal having a wireless telephone number provided by the first user terminal. The message provided by the first user terminal having undergone the first and second authentication is transmitted to at least two second users'"'"' terminals. The second users'"'"' terminals include a wireless terminal and a wired terminal. Therefore, the bidirectional communication service for concurrently transmitting the message to at least two other terminals is allowable based on stable and reliable authentication.
