Abstract
This chapter aims to introduce the history and development of Korean-style Voting Advice Applications (VAA) from a comparative perspective. The history ofVAAs in Korea is relatively short compared with that of other countries. The first reported use of VAAs in the Korean elections was the 2004 general election, and VAAs have evolved since then to their most recent form used in the 2014 local elections. Each VAA under review in the chapter has a different design process and different names. The process of building VAAs has developed over time. Therefore, this chapter compares the different versions of Korean-style VAAs that have appeared since 2004 in order to show how they have developed.
