Have you linked your Naver account with any other social media site? If you have, then this method is just for you. In this method, we will be logging in to your Naver account through any of your linked social media accounts. Here is how you do it –

1. Firstly, go to the official Naver Homepage.
2. In your log in screen, you will find a few other options to access your account. There are icons of Facebook, Twitter, Google and Line.

4. After that, log in to that social media account.

That’s it! This will automatically log you into your linked Naver Account. But remember, if you have logged in to your Naver account through any other method, you cannot change your password through it. You need to log in directly to change your password.

Method 2 – Using Two-Step Verification Process

1. Firstly, go to the official Naver Homepage.
2. To your right, you will see a big green button titled NAVER Sign in. Click on Password that is right below it. If you are using LINE WEBTOON, there is a Forgot password? button right on the login page. Click on it.
3. Naver will ask you to enter your email address. Enter the one that you have registered with Naver.
4. Click on Send.

Once you click on Send, Naver will email you. This will contain all further instructions. Just follow all the instructions on the email and on the screen to reach the password reset page. After this, you can easily change your password. You will use this password to log in to your Naver account whenever you need it.

Case 2 – You Deleted your Naver Account

At some time, when we are busy with something else, we may end up doing something that we haven’t planned. You may have even accidentally deleted your Naver account and now want to get it back. Or else, you may have deleted your account on purpose, but later changed your mind. Unfortunately, Naver does not let you recover a deleted account. According to its privacy policy, Naver deletes all of its user data as soon as a person unsubscribes from the service. So, once you delete your Naver account, all your data gets deleted from the Naver server. So, even if you try logging in with the same mobile number, it will, unfortunately, raise an error.

However, you can try contacting the Naver Help Center to clarify your problems. Just visit the help center, type in your problem, or even explain your problem through an email to Naver.

Case 3 – Your Naver Account is Suspended

Sometimes, if Naver finds your account to be misleading, abnormal, or if there is some unusual activity going on in your account, Naver suspends it. Also, if you are logged in to your account on multiple devices at the same time, Naver considers this as suspicious activity. As a result, it sometimes suspends your account. But, what to do if you want to recover your account?

There is one possible way that you could try out to get back your account. However, this method may not work in certain cases. Previously, Naver has refused to unlock some accounts as it detects unusual activity. Although, it is worth trying. This method requires you to upload your photograph.
