The official Naver blog of Suncheon City is managed directly by designated public officials, with a citizen journalist group adding vivid field stories through a collaborative approach. This allows the blog to offer both accurate policy information from the administration and travel content reflecting citizens' perspectives, earning high marks for its credibility and authenticity.


With this NAVER MATE selection, Suncheon's official blog has secured recognition as an outstanding content channel in the domestic travel category as acknowledged by Naver. This is expected to further increase exposure for a wide range of Suncheon's content—such as tourism, culture, and festivals—to more users, thereby boosting the city's brand and promoting tourism.


An official from the city stated, "This NAVER MATE selection was made possible thanks to citizens' interest and their ongoing support," adding, "We will continue to provide even more informative and relatable content so that citizens can easily and enjoyably access news about city administration and Suncheon."



Meanwhile, Suncheon City continues to expand online communication with its citizens by operating eight official social media channels, including Naver Blog, YouTube, Instagram, KakaoTalk Channel, and Facebook.
