When Seoul Mayor Oh Se-hoon unveiled his city’s multibillion-won metaverse project two weeks ago during a press conference, the first question reporters asked was why? Why go out of the way to build a platform that already exists in the private sector in so many different forms?

It comes down to two reasons, Oh replied, after admitting there was “a lot of talk” about costs.

“Users’ private information is safer on a public metaverse platform compared to a private one,” Oh told the press. “The second reason has to do with consistency,” the Seoul mayor continued, adding that unlike metaverse platforms built by private companies, which usually run short term, the one Seoul was trying to create was here to stay.
