Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is rating: NAVER Dictionary at 3.2 against SKKU 학술정보관's 1.0. NAVER Dictionary also leads on ratings volume (252 vs 1) and review sentiment (35% vs 14%). SKKU 학술정보관's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and monetization model (free vs free with in-app purchases). On price, update cadence, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
