70% of Koreans Use Internet
Up to seven out of 10 South Koreans go online periodically, reaffirming the nation's staunch status as an Internet powerhouse, according to a government survey.
The Ministry of Information and Communication (MIC) said Monday that Korea had 31.6 million Internet users at the end of 2004, up 2.4 million from a year earlier.
Internet users, which officials define as those who access the Web for one hour or more a month, made up 70.2 percent of the nation's 45 million people aged six or above.
The results of the nationwide study, which was conducted last December on 17,535 people aged six or above in 7,042 households, have a margin of sampling error of plus or minus 0.67 percentage point.
