Abstract
This study aims to analyze Korean research trends in B. Reimer’s music education theory and explore their implications in the field of music education in Korea. To do so, 86 studies published between 1988 and 2018 were analyzed based on type of study, period of publication, research method, and research topic. From this study, suggestions can be extracted as follows: More in-depth studies are necessary on the philosophical/ aesthetic background of Reimer’s music education theory, and various research methods should be applied to verify the theory’s effectiveness. Finally, it is important to establish a Korean music education theory based on an understanding of and reflection on music education in Korea.
