How to change language



Changing the language of Naver depends on whether you're using the website on your computer or the mobile app. Here's what you can do:


On Computer:


Unfortunately, Naver itself doesn't currently offer an official way to change the website language on the desktop version. However, you can still access content in English through two methods:


English Naver Homepage: Visit https://punchkorea.com/how-to-use-naver-in-english/. This is a dedicated English version of the website with limited features compared to the Korean version.

Google Translate Chrome Extension: You can utilize the Google Translate Chrome extension to translate the entire Naver website into your preferred language.

On Mobile App:


The Naver app offers a way to switch the language display:


Open the Naver app.

Tap on the three dots (⋮) located at the bottom right corner of the screen.

Look for the icon resembling a parrot or globe.

Select your desired language from the available options.

This will change the language displayed within the app.


Remember, while the app allows for language change, the official Naver website lacks this feature on desktop browsers.
