Abstract
Twenty years have passed since the Asia Digital Art and Design Association was born in the Far East. Have they been able to establish Asian design trends in the last twenty years? In this paper, three research purposes are set: whether there are significant research trends in their international conferences, which countries and regions the researchers are committed to, and what Asian typical contents are being researched. 697 studies presented at their international conferences from 2005 to 2021 were examined. As a result, it turns out that while the number of studies in the field of computer graphics has traditionally been high, the second field has not yet grown, the number of participants from Indonesia, Malaysia, and Taiwan has increased after Japan and South Korea, and research on the themes of Asian literature, arts, food, clothing and housing, and folk beliefs are particularly often studied. In the next twenty years, it will be necessary to clearly pursue the uniqueness of Asia as an international conference in/of Asia.
