After the coronavirus pandemic, the demand of foreigners on inbound tours to South Korea has been on the rapid rise due to the influence of the Korean wave. Along with this trend, South Korea has been promoting environmental improvements by building information systems and infrastructures to develop various tour packages and to attract foreign tourists. Yet, due to the systems that did not take into account economic loss cover following tourism infrastructure construction and the convenience of tourists, the demand of many foreign visitors to revisit has decreased. Thus, this paper develops and proposes a participatory opinion mining-based reputation system to provide reliable information and safe travel paths to tourists. It aims to develop a visualized reputation analysis platform of participatory tourist information based on big data to share quantitative information on tourist areas by utilizing public and spatial information. This research and development is expected to promote efficiency in building the tourist infrastructures of South Korea in the fourth industrial revolution era.
