The theoretical framework for this research encompasses concepts such as communication, communication effectiveness, new media, Instagram, and information needs. Employing a quantitative approach with a descriptive focus, the study targets the followers of Generasi Pesona Indonesia’s (GenPI) Instagram account(@genpiindonesia), constituting a population of 15,900 individuals.
