Simple. I need to add quotation marks or parenthesis to a word or paragraph automatically.
Thank you!

Styles can't add characters, they can only format them. What you need will have to happen with some form of Find/Change. Depending on what conditions need the glyphs added, it might be achievable with a GREP Find/Change.

Clear and concise answer!

… However, when I smugly type the name Jongware into ID, automatically, it becomes "Jongware", the quotation marks appearing automatically by magic!

I think Obi-Wan is advertisign his scripting services again. It could be done with a script.
