The word gom (곰) means "bear" in Korean, and as such the icon of GOM Player looks like a bear's paw.

* Video files that are incomplete, damaged, or not completely downloaded can also be played.
* If the file name of a video file and subtitles are the same, subtitles are automatically displayed when the video is running.
* If there is no subtitle file, subtitles can be found in the subtitles archive supported by GOM Player.
* GOM Player started supporting 360 video (360VR) for the first time as a domestic video player in December 2015, and also has supported 360 video on GOM Player mobile app since June 2016.
* 360 degree videos and trending videos on YouTube can be played through the right panel called Miniweb.
* In 2019, the preferences of GOM player were newly reorganized.
