The 'SNS of the Year' awards are jointly organized by the Korea Social Content Promotion Association and the Parliamentary Policy Academy, with support from the Ministry of Science and ICT. The awards comprehensively evaluate blogs, Facebook, Instagram, YouTube, and other platforms operated by public institutions and companies to select outstanding organizations.

Goseong County received the Excellence Award in the blog category for the second consecutive year, following last year's achievement, and was the only local government in Gangwon Province to be included on the list of awardees this year.

The official blog operated by Goseong County, 'Happy Goseong,' consists of five sections: ▲Small Journeys (introducing tourist attractions and featuring posts by 'Gorani,' the official Goseong County SNS supporters), ▲Smart Administration (providing administrative information), ▲Robust Economy (offering economic information such as consumption coupons and job opportunities), ▲Reliable Welfare (guidance on welfare policies), and ▲Vibrant Culture (introducing cultural events). Through these sections, the blog delivers key county policies and a variety of news.

In particular, the official Goseong County SNS supporters group 'Gorani (Goseongirani),' launched for the first time this year and composed of local residents, introduces hidden attractions and experience spaces from the residents' perspective, receiving enthusiastic responses from both residents and tourists.

Ham Myungjun, Governor of Goseong County, stated, "We will provide information that meets the diverse interests of our residents through social media and strengthen two-way communication to actively reflect residents' opinions in county administration," adding, "We will continue to pursue governance based on empathy and trust."
