AB - This study systematically reviews research trends in studies on wind power landscapes in Korea to identify key issues and future tasks. Literature selected from the Korea Citation Index(KCI) was analyzed for research topics, methodologies, and spatial scopes. The analysis reveals that studies tend to differentiate their analytical focus according to spatial hierarchy. Regional studies have primarily focused on exploring generalized landscape images and overall patterns of public acceptance, whereas site-based studies have emphasized experiential acceptance embedded in residents’ daily lives. Methodologically, a dichotomy is observed between qualitative and quantitative approaches, which has led to a discrepancy between determinants of acceptance and factors used for landscape evaluation. Beyond a descriptive review of the literature, this study identifies overlooked issues. Specifically, the disconnection between social acceptance and physical indicators, the lack of empirical verification in predictive assessments, and the bias toward individual project scales are identified as challenges. This study suggests establishing an integrated framework that strengthens links between spatial scales and harmonizes qualitative-quantitative and predictive-empirical approaches.
