This study aims at exploring the characteristics of sex offenders who wore electronic monitoring supervising device in South Korea by analyzing data set of Korean Ministry of Justice. In particular, the current study concentrates on investigating the effectiveness of EM system comparing recidivism rates of sex offenders with EM and those of sex offenders without EM. Data were collected from Sex Offender Registration and Management System in the Korean Ministry of Justice from 2013 to 2014. Total number of sample was 16,190 and the recidivism rates were measured by the recoding process of additional sex offenses in the official system during the same period of time. The current study utilized chi-square and logistic regression analyses in order to examine the link between EM supervision and the recidivism rates of sex offenders in community. Results demonstrated that there is a statically significant relationship between EM and the recidivism rates among sex offenders. In addition, logistic regression analysis showed that the types of sex crimes and the age of victims are significant factors that are associated with the recidivism rates of sex offenders with EM when other variables are controlled. This outcome indicates that the crucial factors of recidivism rates with EM are different from those of sex offenders without EM. Further policy implication will be discussed.
