The Relationship of the Concentration in Physical space and the proliferation of Cyber space : focusing on the Concentration of Plastic Surgery Clinics at Kangnam-gu, Korea

The development of technology causes a lot of change. Many researchers have insisted that the proliferation of cyber space changes the physical space. Their insistences have been accumulated into three aspects. Firstly, the proliferation of cyber space brings out the concentration in the physical space, secondly the decentralization and lastly both at the same time. In Korea, the concentration of plastic surgery clinics has taken place in Kangnam-gu area at similar period of the Internet proliferation. In this research, we execute empirical study of whether the concentration of plastic surgery in specific areas correlates with the proliferation of cyber space or not. In order to do this, we verified homogeneity of plastic surgery websites between Kangnam-gu and Non-Kangnam-gu areas. Also, we used three statistical and data-mining techniques which are Multi-discriminant analysis, Decision tree analysis and artificial neural network analysis. As a result, there was homogeneity between two different area plastic surgery clinics websites, but there was not big heterogeneity as well. Therefore, in this case of concentration of plastic surgery in Korea, the proliferation of cyber space restrictively correlates with the concentration of physical space.
