AB - This paper examines the online presence of all 12 candidates and their parties during the campaign period of the 2007 presidential election in South Korea. The present study looks at the characteristics of the latest presidential election of Korea based on webometric and network data. The data are analysed in order to identify dynamically changing properties of the Korean political sphere on cyberspace. As results, the online visibility of each party and candidate measured by the webometric method shows that there indeed exists a gap between major and minor political actors on the Internet. The temporal networked structure represented on hyperlinked relations among the candidates and parties during the election reveals each player’s popularity in the electoral race studied in this paper. Overall, the findings are tightly consistent with the general climate of offline politics of the country.
