Abstract

Since social media's introduction, it has reached a point where almost all Internet users, or more than half of the world's population, use social media. As its use became a common activity for many people, social media inevitably induced a range of social phenomena, and numerous researchers have examined them from diverse perspectives. In order to understand the social media phenomenon and related studies better, this study incorporates and analyzes 1,038 articles of social media literature, explores their focuses, and provides an integrative knowledge of the social media phenomenon and research trend. Furthermore, by applying Ihde (1990)'s theories on human-technology relationships to social media literature, this study also investigates how the relationship between people and social media has changed. This study interprets the approaches used in literature in light of human-technology relationships and offers suggestions for future research.

소셜 미디어의 등장 이후 20여년이 지난 지금 전 세계 인구의 반 이상, 거의 대부분의 인터넷 사용 인구가 소셜 미디어를 사용하는 시대가 되었다. 많은 사람에게 소셜 미디어 사용이 일상적 일이 되자 필연적으로 소셜 미디어와 관련된 다양한 사회현상이 나타났고 이에 따라 다수의 연구자가 이러한 현상들을 다양한 관점에서 연구하였다. 본 논문에서는 이러한 연구들을 분석 및 고찰하여 소셜 미디어 현상과 연구들에 대한 이해를 돕고자 하였다. 이를 위해 'Social Media'로 검색된 1,038개의 기존 문헌들을 대상으로 이들이 어떤 주제를 어떻게 다루고 있는지 살펴보고 소셜 미디어 현상 및 연구 경향에 대한 종합적 이해를 제공하고자 했다. 나아가 Ihde(1990)의 기술과 인간의 관계를 문헌들이 다루고 있는 주제에 적용하여 소셜 미디어와 인간이 어떠한 관계로 발전해 왔는지 고찰하였다. 아울러 이 관계에 기반하여 기존 연구들이 채용한 소셜 미디어에 대한 관점을 해석하고 향후 연구 방향에 대해 제언하였다.
