Communications, media and Internet concentration in South Korea, 2019-2021 - Dataset

We start by studying each of the sectors covered individually before grouping them into three larger mid-range categories of similar types of services: telecoms and internet access sectors, online and traditional media services, and core internet sectors.

Ultimately, we bring all these sectors together to give a composite view of the network media economy over the period from 2019 to 2021. In a country where there is little established research on the topic of media concentration and ownership, the goal of this report is to simultaneously examine specific media sectors so that we can understand their unique features, dynamics, and trends and move from there toward a holistic understanding of the South Korean network media economy.
