초록

본 연구는 전세계적으로 주목받고 있는 소셜 미디어 인플루언서의 국내연구 동향을 살펴보고자 하였다. 이를 위해 한국학술인용색인에 등재된 학술논문 가운데, 2009년부터 2021년까지 소셜 인플루언서를 주제로 한 논문 총 178편을 분석하였다. 분석 결과, 패션 및 뷰티, 커뮤니케이션 등 특정분야에 국한되어 있던 초기 소셜 미디어 인플루언서 연구는 시간이 흐를수록 다양한 학문분야로 확장되며 양적 성장을 이루고 있었다. 실증연구의 비중은 최근 들어 높아지는 추세이며, 질적 연구방법론을 적용한 연구들은 감소하는 경향을 보였다. 소셜 미디어 플랫폼의 특성은 매우 다양하고 각 플랫폼에서 활동하는 인플루언서의 유형과 속성 역시 이질적임에도 불구하고, 특정 미디어 플랫폼 및 인플루언서 유형에 대한 연구 비중은 오히려 더 낮아지는 것으로 나타났다. 본 연구는 국내 소셜 미디어 인플루언서 연구의 현주소를 조망하는 첫 실증연구라는 점에서 학문적 의의를 지닌다.

The purpose of this study is to examine the research trend on social media influencers in Korea. To this end, a total of 178 papers on social media influencers were analyzed from 2009 to 2021 among the academic papers registered in the Korean Academic Citation Index. As a result, the early social media influencer research, which was limited to only a few fields such as fashion, beauty, and communication, has expanded to various ones as time passed and achieved quantitative growth. The proportion of empirical studies has been on the rise in recent years, and studies that applied qualitative research methodologies have shown a tendency to decrease. The proportion of research focusing on specific media platforms and influencer types gets lower, although both the characteristics of social media platforms and the attitudes of each influencer are very diverse. This study has academic significance in that it is the first empirical study to investigate the current status of the social media influencer research in Korea.
