As for the names of columns in this chapter:

  • Word – word that was figured by the program as a unit of search. I made a search of words with at least 5 letters

  • Range – shows the most frequently and the less frequently mentioned words

  • Documents % - shows the percentage of documents in which the word was used

  • KT –Korea Times

  • KH – Korea Herald

  • CI – Chosun Ilbo

  • DI – Dong-a Ilbo

As we can notice, violence got quite a big number of mentions in the chosen massive of documents as well as harassment, however, the word crime is less used – moreover, its number of mentions (bearing in mind the fact that all the articles are connected with the female topic) – that is the evidence of the problem, that was announced in the chapter 2. Violence against women is still not defined as a crime fully – as the statistical data showed difficulties in the responsibility for the violent actions towards women. The words victims and abuse are also used much more frequently than the word crime. That can be the evidence of the fact of the difficulties in the definition of the physical oppression towards women as a crime.

The next table shows the statistics on the coded fragments which show the reflection of a particular condition in the major South Korean media. The table below how the statistics of the coded fragments by the newspaper.

The table shows that the difference in the topics` coverage by newspaper. Results by each code differ from newspaper to newspaper. For instance, Chosum Ilbo is more attentive feminism than other newspapers – however, is inattentive to the show libertarian or resistance actions. Patriarchy got the most attention of all the newspapers- number of the coded fragments with “patriarchy” are quite equal in all the newspapers.

Dong-a Ilbo is less attentive towards discrimination than other newspapers in general and Korea Times in particular. It is also worth noticing that Chosun Ilbo is the least attentive newspaper towards violence, when the other newspapers are quite attentive to this problem. Korea Times and Korea Herald are the most attentive towards liberation and resistance actions – mostly provided by the non-governmental groups or initiated by the particular individuals.

I have hypothesis about such statistics. Here we can see the trace of orientation of each newspaper. For instance, Korea Herald is a part of Asia News Network, international conglomerate oriented on mass, English –speaking audience, typical target audience – well-educated person, interested in Asian politics, economy and social life. As it is also provided in English we can conclude that it is west-oriented newspaper, meant to be a typical propaganda organ, which needs to promote South Korea as a democratic country, attentive to the sharp problems. Chosun Ilbo is a typical ultra-conservative newspaper, that is not very attentive towards violence and resistance towards the violence. The most important thing for ultra conservatives is conservation of the stability – and the coverage of radical elements of changes is possible in a very constrained way. Korea Times also seems to be pro-western newspaper, attentive towards the problem of violence and discrimination and different actions against them. Dong-a Ilbo is a conservative newspaper – however, not like Chosun Ilbo. It stands on the balanced position among the previous newspapers – the newspaper shows attention towards all the chosen topics.
