Pattern on the observed surface
Luxury Medical Aesthetic Clinics Seoul · Seoul · AI Overview · October 5–11, 2026
The panel is top-heavy
The panel is top-heavy: the top 3 actors together hold more than the remaining 7 combined. Three social platforms — instagram.com, youtube.com, and facebook.com — occupy positions across the ranking, while the remaining actors are niche domains and focused sources. The spread between the first and last positions is 20.26 percentage points. Presence frequency divides the panel into two groups: 4 of the 10 actors on the panel opened AI answers in all 7 comparable runs, while 6 opened AI answers in fewer runs. The 9 sources behind instagram.com sit between 13.79 and 20.26 percentage points behind it, confirming a surface where the rank-1 actor holds a clear structural lead over a dispersed trailing field.
Why this reading matters
Luxury Medical Aesthetic Clinics Seoul · Seoul · AI Overview · October 5–11, 2026
instagram.com — a social platform, not a specialist domain — holds the rank-1 position on the AI Overview opening-control rail for Seoul's luxury medical aesthetic clinic market across this 7-run window. The surface is notable for mixing general-purpose platforms with focused medical-travel and clinic domains, none of which individually challenge the rank-1 actor's accumulated opening volume.
Market implication
Luxury Medical Aesthetic Clinics Seoul · Seoul · AI Overview · October 5–11, 2026
This observation signals that the AI Overview opening-control surface for Seoul luxury aesthetic clinics is shaped by general-purpose platforms rather than specialist clinic domains at the top of the ranking. The top 3 actors together hold more than the remaining 7 combined, and the spread of 20.26 percentage points between the first and last positions suggests a structurally concentrated opening rail. For any operator monitoring AI primacy on this market, the period observation reframes the question: the contest is not between specialist sources for the opening slot, but between platforms and niche domains for the share that remains behind instagram.com.

FAQ
- What does AI opening share measure?
- AI opening share on this market measures which actor is cited at the opening of AI Overview answers — the primacy slot. It captures who AI reaches for first when answering this market's queries, not general citation share and not organic search ranking.
- What does this card prove and what does it not prove?
- This card proves which actors accumulated the highest AI opening share across 7 comparable scheduled runs in the October 5–11, 2026 window. It does not prove general citation share, organic search visibility, or a longer-term trend. AI Overview opening behavior is volatile across queries, models, and dates; future windows may produce different results.
- Why do some actors appear in fewer runs than others?
- Presence frequency reflects how many of the 7 comparable runs each actor opened at least one AI Overview answer. Four actors opened AI answers in all 7 runs; six opened AI answers in fewer runs. This variation is characteristic of AI Overview surfaces, where the sources selected can shift between observations.
