Busan Leverages AI to Communicate Smarter and Faster with the World — Launch of English Press Release Service

내용

The Busan Metropolitan City (Mayor Park Heong-joon) has announced the launch of an AI-powered English press release service starting in April, aimed at delivering the city’s major policies and updates to the international community more quickly and efficiently.

This initiative is part of the city's efforts to establish itself as a “Global English-Friendly City,” and represents an innovative approach to global communication using cutting-edge digital technology.

The service uses ChatGPT to translate official Korean press releases into English. These English versions are then made available on Busan’s English-language website to improve accessibility and ensure accuracy for global users.

Each release is provided alongside the original Korean version, allowing readers to compare both languages.
Official English names for institutions, places, and people are included to maintain consistency and reliability.

More than just translation, the service represents a forward-thinking administrative model that accumulates English-language promotional materials using generative AI, thereby enhancing Busan’s global communication infrastructure.

The accumulated content is expected to serve as a valuable asset in promoting Busan’s status and appeal as a global hub city.

The AI-translated press releases can be accessed through the following path:
👉 www.busan.go.kr/eng → News → AI-translated Press Releases

Park Kwang-myung, spokesperson for Busan City, stated:

“By adopting AI in our English press release service, we are greatly enhancing Busan’s capacity for global communication. We will continue to leverage AI technology to eliminate barriers to information and establish a new standard for international outreach — ensuring that Busan’s news reaches people wherever they are in the world.”
