As Jeonbuk Ilbo marks its 76th year in 2026, we will deliver useful, diverse news to readers across our print and digital platforms.
△Fair, voter-centered local election coverage
With the 9th nationwide local elections set for June 3, Jeonbuk Ilbo will help readers make informed decisions. We will apply the same standards to all candidates and uphold fairness and impartiality in our election reporting. To give voters clear, actionable information, our coverage will emphasize policies, campaign pledges and the region’s key issues.
△Yearlong series on hopeful lives in Jeonbuk
Jeonbuk Ilbo has planned several in-depth reporting projects for the year. Our yearlong series will include "Second Act: Heading to Jeonbuk," documenting middle-aged return migration alongside youth outflow; "Choices Started in Jeonbuk, Becoming New Companies," following young entrepreneurs as they enter the market; "Rediscovering Family," which explores alternatives as family structures that once provided care break down; and "A Thousand-Year Paper: Writing Jeonbuk's Tomorrow," spotlighting hanji, traditional Korean paper, as it pursues UNESCO intangible cultural heritage recognition.
△Focus on strengthening digital content competitiveness
In the new year, Jeonbuk Ilbo will ramp up digital content efforts by producing video news for YouTube and social platforms. We will build an in-house video production studio to deepen and diversify our video offerings. By creating engaging, locally focused content, we aim to become Jeonbuk’s leading digital media platform.{vi16}
