Details This study attempts to conduct comparative analysis of young people's awareness and behaviour concerning online privacy between Japan and Korea based on the results of the questionnaire surveys undertaken in 2008 and 2011 in Japan and in 2010 in Korea taking into account socio-cultural circumstances surrounding the Internet in the both countries. Considering the similarities and differences in socio-cultural settings between the two countries, the cross-cultural study promises to provide fruitful findings to the academic research of online privacy as well as to business practices of B to C e-commerce.
