Disclosed is a microcapsule encoded depending on the kind of a target substance included therein. The encoded microcapsule has a hydrophilic liquid core including the target substance and a hydrophobic shell surrounding the liquid core. The encoded microcapsule includes graphical codes introduced on the surface of the shell. 1. A microcapsule encoded depending on a kind of a target substance present therein , comprising:a hydrophilic liquid core comprising the target substance;a hydrophobic shell surrounding the liquid core; andgraphical codes formed on a surface of the hydrophobic shell.2. The encoded microcapsule according to claim 1 , wherein the target substance is a chemical substance or a biological substance.3. The encoded microcapsule according to claim 2 , wherein the chemical substance is a drug or the biological substance selected from the group consisting of cells claim 2 , molecules claim 2 , proteins claim 2 , bacteria claim 2 , DNAs claim 2 , RNAs claim 2 , and combinations thereof.4. The encoded microcapsule according to claim 1 , wherein the liquid core is a water droplet.5. The encoded microcapsule according to claim 1 , wherein the shell is formed by curing a photocurable polymer.6. The encoded microcapsule according to claim 1 , wherein the graphical codes contain a fluorescent material.7. A method of producing encoded microcapsules claim 1 , the method comprising:preparing double emulsion droplets, each of which has a hydrophilic liquid core comprising a target substance and a hydrophobic shell surrounding the liquid core, wherein the hydrophobic shell contains a photocurable polymer;curing the photocurable polymer to form core-shell structured microcapsules; andengraving graphical codes on a surface of the hydrophobic shell by irradiating patterned energy on the cured core-shell microcapsules.8. The method according to claim 7 , wherein the hydrophobic shells contain a photoinitiator whose fluorescence properties are enhanced upon irradiation ...
