Since information and communication technology (ICT) has become one of the leading and essential fields for allowing developing countries to have the major growth engines, the majority of the countries have promoted collaboration in every ICT-related topics. In this study, we performed the trend and collaboration network analysis (CNA) in Korea for 2010-2019 among researchers who are related to human-computer interaction, one of the hottest research areas in ICT. Publication data were collected from SciVal, and the collaboration network was determined using degree, closeness, betweenness centralities, and PageRank. Hence, key researchers were identified based on their centrality metrics. The dataset contained 7,155 publications, thus reflecting the contributions of a total of 243 authors. The results of our data analysis demonstrated that key researchers can be identified via CNA; this aspect was not evident from the results of the most productive researchers. Additionally, on the basis of the results, the implications and limitations of this study were analyzed.
