AB - This article examines the risk of interpreting failed online data collection as public nonresponse. It audits records concerning twenty-two films by Hong Sang-soo and fourteen novels by Choi In-hun across fifty-two collection routes. The resulting 1,872 work-source records are treated as units of procedural inspection, not as counts of independent responses. The analysis distinguishes three diagnostic branches applied to 347,992 stored rows: exact-text repetition, contextual and classification checks, and source-score combinations. These checks address different questions and do not establish a representative audience sample. The article distinguishes access failure, unresolved work context, classification failure, and non-observation within a specified observation window. It proposes the infrastructural selectivity of reception visibility to describe how platform access and researchers’ processing rules jointly determine what becomes available as reception evidence. Its contribution is to locate the point at which technical non-observation can become an unwarranted judgment about cultural silence. Preserving document context and recording the conditions of exclusion make this judgment open to scrutiny. The argument connects critical infrastructure studies with data auditing while keeping file preservation distinct from semantic and interpretive validation. It thereby identifies evidential conditions that should precede claims about audience attitudes or cognitive experience.
