Gapyeong County Seeks New SNS Promotion Model in Collaboration with Military

[Suwon Ilbo=Reporter Eom In-yong] Gapyeong County explored ways to revitalize SNS (social media) promotion involving military personnel in collaboration with military units in the county.

On the 19th, the county held a meeting with military base public relations staff from the Gapyeong area at the county office, exchanging opinions on regional promotion that can be substantively collaborated within the scope of respecting military security standards and unit circumstances.

The meeting was held to discover SNS promotion content with on-site authenticity and credibility departing from existing promotion methods, and to establish a mutually beneficial promotion model involving both military and local community.

Participants discussed a range of topics including SNS promotion methods based on voluntary participation by military personnel, possibilities for promotion cooperation linking military open events with regional events, and ways to utilize content with a friendly image.

In particular, consensus was formed that content introducing the region from the perspective of military personnel could bring new vitality to regional promotion.

Based on the opinions presented at the meeting, the county plans to promote cooperation with military units in phases, and will also consider ways to formally recognize practitioners and personnel who have contributed to county government promotion.

Planning Director Shin Sung-chul stated, "This meeting was not a one-sided request for cooperation, but a time to jointly discuss collaboration methods that fully consider the circumstances of military units," and added, "We will create a sustainable promotion model that naturally connects the military and the region."
