Analysis
The most recent figure for digital connectivity composite index in Korea is 0.9059 standard deviations from the yearly mean, measured in 2024.
Compared with earlier readings it is down 6.5% on the previous year and up 28.8% over ten years.
Over the whole period, digital connectivity composite index in Korea peaked at 3.86 standard deviations from the yearly mean in 2001 and was at its lowest, 0.7023 standard deviations from the yearly mean, in 2013.
That places Korea 16th out of 209 countries with data for 2024, putting it in the top 10%.
The series is highly variable year to year, so single readings are best treated with caution.

How this figure is calculated
An equal-weighted index of 4 indicators: Proportion of individuals using the Internet; Mobile cellular subscriptions; Fixed broadband subscriptions; Secure Internet servers. Each is standardised against that year's spread across all reporting countries before averaging, so a score of 0 is the average country and +1 is one standard deviation above it.
Equal-weighted mean of the standardised inputs below.
Computed from
- Proportion of individuals using the Internet United Nations Statistics Division, SDG Global Database
- Mobile cellular subscriptions World Telecommunication/ICT Indicators Database, International Telecommunication Union (ITU)
- Fixed broadband subscriptions World Telecommunication/ICT Indicators Database, International Telecommunication Union (ITU)
- Secure Internet servers Secure Server Survey, Netcraft
Statizoid computes this series; the underlying measurements belong to the publishers named above. The arithmetic is applied to every country and year where both inputs report, and nothing is estimated unless the page says so.
