This study analyzed the research trends in the field of supply chain management in South Korea by comparing and analyzing 709 papers published from 2010 to 2019 and 973 papers published from 2020 to 2024 through network text analysis. The trend analysis revealed that academic research in the field of supply chain management over the past five years has addressed various supply chain-related issues arising from changes in international circumstances and trade. Research has been actively conducted on topics such as supply chain restructuring, sustainable management, supply chain disruptions, securing visibility, and building resilience. This differs from previous studies that primarily focused on achieving agility and flexibility in supply chain management and integrated management. Additionally, it was confirmed that recent supply chain management issues are being addressed not only from a corporate management perspective but also from a national security standpoint.
