Sometimes I want to do a very quick Naver search, and get frustrated with all the bells and whistles Naver adds to their homepage. It takes time to load, it's distracting, and sometimes makes the page jump around as elements load so I end up clicking something I didn't mean to.
So I was excited to discover that somebody has recreated the functionality of the old Naver SE homepage at:
🔗 senaver.com
Beautiful and simple. Loads in a flash. Quicklinks to take you to particular common Naver services, or just do a plain old search in the search bar. It will redirect to you the actual Naver search results page for that query. It does one thing, and does it well.
You may remember that Naver used to have this simplified version of its homepage, presumably to face off against the famous simplicity of Google.

But that page is long gone. The current desktop version is manageable, but the mobile version of the Naver homepage is just too busy for me. This is a nice site to bookmark and come back to for quick Naver searches where you just want search results, not to browse and waste time.
I also sometimes use a simple bookmarklet for doing mobile Naver searches, which you can find more about here:
