In addition, Naver also provides specialized search results for tennis, which has recently become increasingly popular among young people. Along with tennis magazines, information on tennis rules and manners, game terminology, technique/lesson terminology, etc. is provided in the form of cards.

Naver said, “As demand for sports-related information search is increasing, interest in individual sports has grown since the Asian Games, so we have introduced a sports player service search using the personal information DB,” and “MZ generation (born in the 1980s to early 2000s).” “We have decided to also provide tennis-specific search results, which have seen increased interest,” he said.
