The 「Health Park(healthpark.or.kr)」 was developed in 2001, and since then, it has been operated as an internet-based gateway system designed to promote public use of up-to-date and reliable health information. The system is aimed at providing broader health information and increasing user convenience by creating a database. This study draws implications for measures to manage health information more efficiently, provide big data-based health information and encourage the elderly to utilize health information, develop more health information apps for smart phone users, improve the quality of websites providing health information, and protect personal information on the web. As of 2013, the 「Health Park」 is a one-stop information storehouse that provides 9,021 newspaper/broadcast reports, 142 health contents (recommended items, self-diagnosis articles, patient group information pieces), 11,690 healthy lifestyle articles(12 topics), 15,558 pieces of information on diseases(17 topics), 7,948 health articles on different body parts, and 4,667 health information pieces for different age groups. The 「Health Park」 in 2013 has drawn a total of 247,741 visits (a daily average of 817 visits), and a total of 1,499,225 page views (a daily average of 4,947 page views). The Health Information Utilization Satisfaction Survey (2013.06.25.~07.15) shows that the 3 most viewed information was about health contents (32.7%), self-diagnosis articles (24.7%), and newspaper/ broadcast reports (21.3%). In another user survey, the Health Information Park and the information posted on it were rated highly in terms of usability (4.81 out of 6), reliability (4.80), profusion (4.76), and satisfaction (4.64).
