ABSTRACT

It has been argued that tourism studies could be more complete through inter-disciplinary approach from various academic disciplines including sociology, psychology, economics, geography and so on. This paper examined geographical approach in tourism studies. Particularly, it focused on landscape research which has been one of the main subjects of new cultural geography. Review of related literature showed that the scope of landscape research has been extended to the theme of tourism, the major characteristic of modern society. This study also indicated that tourist destination was the very place where the theories such as the social construction of space and the tourist gaze were originated from. Finally, from the perspective of landscape research, this paper proposed the potential research topics in tourism studies and emphasized the significance of landscape research in the trends of Korean tourism studies.
