What are the pros and cons of using Naver versus Google for research purposes?
The advantages and disadvantages of Naver and Google, which are used for research, are completely distinguished.
Naver's strong point is that it is the website used most by Koreans, so there is a lot of information specializing in Koreans. Since Koreans use it a lot, Naver sometimes makes a lot of information for the users, and the information community of the users themselves is also well-established. Korean media also use Naver as a platform, so using Naver makes it easy to find a lot of information.
Naver's shortcomings are quite serious. First, since Naver is a unique site that Koreans use most, important information is often censored or deleted at the request of the government or large corporations. Because of this, it is difficult to trust all the information on Naver.
Second, it is not easy to find unless it is a site related to Naver. For example, information used on other websites such as Google and Daum cannot be found on Naver. For those who want to get a lot of information from various parts of the world, including foreign documents, this is the worst condition.
Naver has many advantages in Korean domestic information, but it is a poor environment to obtain various information from overseas. Next, I will explain the advantages and disadvantages of Google.
The advantage of Google is that it can gather all the information from all the sites in the world at once. You can find various information such as academic documents, articles, reports, columns, etc. Before you start your research, you can start by typing Google related search terms if you don't know how to start the research.
The disadvantage of Google is that it combines a lot of information, so it is possible to search for data that is inappropriate for young people without filtering. I think it is dangerous to find cruel and inflammatory materials easily.
Google has both the advantages of being able to get a wide variety of information at once and the disadvantages of being able to see inappropriate materials together. The pros and cons of each other are clear, so if you use the two sites properly, you will be able to find good research materials.
Good analysis! Keep up the good job!
