Positive psychology was pioneered by Seligman in 1998 and has greatly advanced the psychological study of human positive strengths and virtues over the past 24 years. However, studies on positive psychological art therapy in Korea have been conducted sporadically and have not been systematically reviewed. This study therefore conducted a literature review to examine how positive psychology has been applied in domestic art therapy research. To this end, 27 articles published in Korean journals were collected, and the data were coded focusing on publication information, participants, research design, and characteristics and techniques of positive psychological art therapy, frequency analysis was then performed. Since the first articles were published in The Korean Journal of Art Therapy in 2013, a total of 27 articles were published in 12 journals by 2021, and almost all the articles were case and experimental studies. The review showed that existing studies focused on adults, children and adolescents, and women, showing that there are an insufficient number of studies on the elderly and men. Further, the review revealed that the pre-post experimental design method, including a comparison group, was mainly used, and only one qualitative study was published. Finally, the review confirmed that positive psychology art therapy is an approach that emphasizes support for clients to live a flourishing life through positive psychology. The significance and limitations of this study were also discussed.
