hi @do12siwu!

To help make things easier, can you avoid pasting in images and use the code feature to paste in your code? This makes it much easier for us to replicate.

Can you explain what you're trying to accomplish? I saw you changed `for span in eg.get("span", []):` to `for span in eg.get("REGEX", []):`. What are you trying to do here?

The problem is in your examples -- I assume `koText` is a set of annotations from `ner.manual` -- doesn't have a "REGEX" key. The [`get` method](https://www.w3schools.com/python/ref_dictionary_get.asp) is will get the key with the accompanying key name.

This is what an example annotation looks like for the `ner.manual` recipe:

```python
from prodigy.components.db import connect
db = connect()
examples = db.get_dataset("ner_manual")
import pprint
pprint.pprint(examples[0])
{'_input_hash': -136499144,
 '_is_binary': False,
 '_task_hash': -986839541,
 '_timestamp': 1662560235,
 '_view_id': 'ner_manual',
 'answer': 'accept',
 'spans': [{'end': 33,
            'label': 'PRODUCT',
            'start': 22,
            'token_end': 6,
            'token_start': 5}],
 'text': 'First look at the new MacBook Pro.',
 'tokens': [{'end': 5, 'id': 0, 'start': 0, 'text': 'First', 'ws': True},
            {'end': 10, 'id': 1, 'start': 6, 'text': 'look', 'ws': True},
            {'end': 13, 'id': 2, 'start': 11, 'text': 'at', 'ws': True},
            {'end': 17, 'id': 3, 'start': 14, 'text': 'the', 'ws': True},
            {'end': 21, 'id': 4, 'start': 18, 'text': 'new', 'ws': True},
            {'end': 29, 'id': 5, 'start': 22, 'text': 'MacBook', 'ws': True},
            {'end': 33, 'id': 6, 'start': 30, 'text': 'Pro', 'ws': False},
            {'end': 34, 'id': 7, 'start': 33, 'text': '.', 'ws': False}]}

```
