TheCarBlogger Goes Seoul-o

For those who still hang on to us and check our blog every so often, I thank you very much and I can't find the right words to express my gratitude towards you folks. For long periods ever so often since the end of the summer break, TheCarBlogger has been facing unexpected hiatuses disappointing many of our daily readers. The number of our visitors dropped significantly from an average level of 600 visitors to somewhere near the 200 level. This drop prompted me to find out the best solution for this problem, so it benefits you.

Since the first day of the opening of TheCarBlogger, the majority of our articles reported on cars and news in North America. We also had quite a few international articles. You might have also noticed that we like to report on events occurring in South Korea. Exclusive spy reports of the upcoming models from Hyundai and Kia were frequent and it was those articles that garnered the most attention to our site from around the world. Add to that, the popularity of Korean automobiles has gone through the roof over the recent years. So, what does this even have to do with the big news waiting to be unleashed. Well, you already have somewhat of an idea now.

From today, TheCarBlogger is your source for the latest automotive news sprouting from the Korean automotive industry. As a Korean myself, TheCarBlogger gains great advantages over other international automotive websites that need more than a Google Translator to report on the latest reports from Seoul. This change means more than just news from the Far East. TheCarBlogger will also be here to report on the latest news of Korean automakers around the world, including the U.S. and Europe. Has Ferrari officially signed the deal to officially enter the Korean market (actually, they will officially on November 16th)? TheCarBlogger will be here.

So, with all this corporate mumble, what advantages do you get? Well first, there is currently no professional Korean automotive blog that reports 100% in English anywhere on the web. That means no more digging on Bobaedream with Babelfish or a Google Translator. Exclusive information and images regarding upcoming Korean cars will be right here. I can proudly concur that:

TheCarBlogger is the first English Korean automotive blog on the web.

I would very much appreciate feedback on this change and throughout the course of the week, you'll be seeing some physical changes made to the blog. We're in the process of implementing a new domain as well.
