The 18th General Election and participation observation on the Jongno-gu at Seoul
In the 18th General Election, incumbent Park Jin and opposition leader Sohn Hakkyu came to the tug of war the Jongno-gu election district at Seoul. The jongno-gu has been the 1st street for the Korean politics because of its location. It has been the center of Seoul and the major government sites such as the National Assembly, the main government buildings and so on. The composition of its population is very similar to one of national population. Many believe that the election result of the Jongno-gu will resemble national one. These facts make people be interested in the Jongno-gu during the election period. This paper will examine the election process of the Jongno-gu through the method og participation observation.
According to the survey, Incumbent Park seemed to win by an overwhelming majority, but barely won the election against expectation. Two factors may cause this election result. One is the valance psychology of people in Korea. After the series of mistakes on the selections of Cabinet members and Blue House secretaries by Lee Myung_bak Government, consensus of need of balancing between the reling and opposition party had been evolved. This is why he could landslide the election. However, Park managed to win because he could satisfy constituents by promising regional development, which might increase the value of their property. Park's realistic and profitable promise paid off in the end.

This paper examines correlations of several socio-political variables with
democratization and consolidation of the Asian countries. Economic development is
highly correlated with the level of consolidation. However, it is a necessary but not a
sufficient condition. In case of pattern of democratic transition and consolidation, a
country that experiences democratization by reform or pacts shows high level of
consolidation. Party system is also known as an essential element of democratic
institutionalization. Through the comparative analysis of party system in the Asian
countries, competitive multi-party system is highly associated with the consolidation level.
National identity and consolidation show no relationship despite an expectation. In
conclusion economy development, transition pattern, political party system are the key
factors in consolidation in the Asian countries
