In spite of decreased attention to digital divide, it has been pointed out as one of the main obstacles to realization of information society. At the outset, two conflicting explanations, optimism and pessimism, have directed their attention to objective basis of digital divide in common. They, however, have been neglected the fact that accessibilities can be varied not only by objective conditions but by subjective conditions such as individual recognition of necessity and willingness. Subsequent choices can be a crucial factor to determine whether to or not to access. In USA, over 50% of potential users determined not to access to the internet by their own will and choices. By the user survey on internet, 'do not feel the necessity' ranked the first reason not to use the internet in South Korea. The respondents who chose 'no time to use' tend to decrease but kept holding their shares, too. The relative importance of 'not to access' by individual choice have been increased. Whether the non-users of ICTs by choice is in or beyond the scope of digital divide, it evidently shows the necessity and importance of directing our attention to it on the way to information society.
