Abstract

The concentration phenomenon in physical space has taken place along with the proliferation of ICT in South Korea, especially the concentration in Gangnam_Gu district of plastic surgery clinics. In this study, we examine longitudinally whether the proliferation of ICT is related with the concentration in the physical space: focused plastic surgery clinics in Gangnam_Gu district. To do this, we extend the previous study(Cho and Choi, 2012). We examine the homogeneity between websites of plastic surgery clinics in Gangnam_Gu and those besides Gangnam_Gu plastic surgery's website. Multiple Discriminant Analysis (MDA) technique is mainly used for this analysis. The 401 sample websites in 5 years from 2006 to 2011 are mainly investigated. As a result, plastic surgery websites in Gangnam_Gu are not homogeneous than those of elsewhere with significance during 5 years consistently. Therefore, we can conclude that the expansion of ICT has an association with the spatial concentration of plastic surgery in Gangnam_Gu.

ICT의 확산과 함께 물리적 공간에서의 집중화 현상이 일어났는데 바로 성형외과 의원의 강남구 집중이다. 본 연구는 ICT의 확산과 물리적 공간에서의 집중화가 연관성이 있는지 알아보기 위하여 강남구의 성형외과 의원 집중화에 초점을 맞추어 종단적으로 검증했다. 이를 위하여 2006년부터 2011년까지 5년 동안 총 401개 샘풀을 조사하였다. 강남구 성형외과 의원의 웹 사이트와 타 지역 성형외과 의원의 웹 사이트의 동질성을 비교하였다. 분석방법으로는 다변량 판별분석을 사용하였다. 분석결과, 강남구의 성형외과 웹 사이트는 5년 동안 타 지역과 유의하게 같지 않았다. 그러므로 ICT의 확산과 성형외과의 지역적 집중화는 서로 연관성이 있다고 결론지을 수 있었다.
