This study aims to analyze the research trends on suicide survivors in South Korea from 2007 to 2024, focusing on the current state, developmental trajectory, and future directions of research in this field. A total of 228 academic papers were retrieved from the Research Information Sharing Service (RISS) using the keywords 'suicide survivor, suicide bereavement, and postvention'. Among them, 69 studies that met the purpose of this study were selected for final analysis. The selected papers were classified by publication year, research participants, academic field, research method, and research topic. The results are as follows. First, suicide survivor research began in 2007 and increased rapidly after 2015, showing steady growth each year. Second, in the early stages, most studies focused on family members, but over time, the scope expanded to include friends, colleagues, and occupationally exposed groups. Third, research was most active in the field of counseling psychology, followed by education, social welfare, health and nursing, philosophy, and other disciplines. Fourth, qualitative research accounted for 55%, while quantitative research (14.5%) and program development (3%) were also conducted. Fifth, qualitative studies mainly explored grief experiences, along with emotional and psychological difficulties, postvention and healing, and post-traumatic growth. Sixth, quantitative studies have confirmed the difficulties experienced by suicide survivors, such as complicated grief, depression, and stigma, and have investigated the factors that influence these difficulties. This study provides a comprehensive overview of domestic research trends on suicide survivors and offers meaningful directions for future studies and clinical practice.
