The recent increase in the frequency and severity of forest fires driven by climate change have raised concerns about secondary disasters, such as soil erosion and landslides, in forest-fire-affected areas. Effective restoration, including soil protection and vegetation recovery, is essential for mitigating these risks. In South Korea, most studies have mainly focused on localized changes or the initial stages of post-fire recovery and remain limited in both temporal and spatial scopes. We conducted a bibliometric analysis to examine and compare research trends over the past 45 years regarding post-fire restoration and the application of nature-based solutions (NbS) to fire-affected areas. The results indicated a marked increase in international publications on post-fire restoration since the 2000s, with most studies originating from the United States and European countries where forest fires are particularly frequent. In South Korea, research on post-fire restoration has increased significantly since 2010. However, no studies on NbS applications have been published to date. Our findings highlight that despite ongoing restoration efforts in South Korea, a comprehensive evaluation of restoration techniques is still lacking. To achieve sustainable restoration and management of forest-fire-affected areas, it is essential to systematically monitor changes in soil and hydrological conditions. Based on these data, diverse restoration techniques, including NbS, should be implemented, and their effectiveness should be quantitatively assessed.
