It also represented the first time that the South Korean government promoted a single set of statistics on the movement.<ref name="Database Chosun Kim" /> The database aggregates evidence and numbers from over 27,729 sources; these have been [[Digitization|digitized]] and are available on the website.<ref name="Database Introduction">{{Cite web |script-title=ko:안내 |trans-title=Introduction |url=https://db.history.go.kr/samil/home/introduce/introduce_content.do |access-date=May 7, 2024 |website=삼일운동 데이터베이스 |publisher=[[National Institute of Korean History]] |archive-date=May 7, 2024 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20240507201000/https://db.history.go.kr/samil/home/introduce/introduce_content.do |url-status=live }}</ref><ref name="Database Chosun Kim" /><ref name="Database Chosun" /> The database has been updated on at least one occasion to reflect the NIKH's ongoing research on the movement.<ref name=":1" />

The database intentionally provides conservative estimates on the protests; the database's curators suspect that actual numbers are much higher. Events and numbers are reportedly only included if there is known surviving evidence for them that is deemed sufficiently reliable.<ref name="Database Introduction" /> A significant portion of evidence used for the database comes from Japanese sources; the colonial government was known to alter its records for political reasons. The instability during and extrajudicial actions taken during the movement's suppression also reduced the amount of surviving evidence.<ref name="Database Introduction" />
