블로그기자단의 명칭에 대해 사전공모를 진행한 결과, ‘소상공인, 전통시장과 소통하며 전국팔도를 달리는 기자단’이라는 뜻의 ‘소통팔달’이 최종 선정됐다.
As the result of the advance public contest on the naming of the blog press corps, ”So-tong-pal-dal,” which means ”press corps running through all over the country while communicating with small business owners and traditional markets,” was selected in the end.
