Gwangju Maeil Shimbun, which was launched in 1991, has grown into a regional media outlet for over 30 years, nourishing the love and interest of local residents in Gwangju and Jeollanam-do.The Gwangju Maeil Shimbun has been fulfilling its role as a regional newspaper based on the slogan of ‘Let’s become a newspaper of local people that contributes to the development of the local economy and the creation of culture through the direct writing of Jeongron’.The situation of local newspapers is undergoing rapid change due to the rapid spread of the Internet and the emergence of numerous new media.
The role of newspapers is shrinking due to the diversification of information delivery channels.However, the role and responsibility of the local media remains unchanged.It is necessary to point out the harmful effects of centralization, which is getting worse day by day, and to represent the voices of the local community.We must take the lead in realizing balanced regional development and decentralization of autonomy.The world will change and the environment of local media will also change.
But there is one principle that does not change.It is a fact that local newspapers still play a leading role in the development of local communities.The Gwangju Maeil Shimbun will engrave this mission in our hearts and will travel throughout Gwangju and Jeollanam-do today.We ask for your unwavering interest and love from our readers.
