A write-once recording medium preserving a data recording status of the writ e- once recording medium, a method of preserving the data recording status of a write-once recording medium, a medium including computer readable code for t he same, and a recording and/or reproducing apparatus therefor. In the method o f preserving the data recording status of a write-once recording medium, first , data is recorded on the write-once recording medium. Next, recording-status data, representing occupied areas, is produced and recorded in a temporary defect management area allocated in the write-once recording medium. Thereafter, a finalization command is received to preserve the data-recordin g status of the recording medium. Then, in response to the finalization comman d, predetermined data is recorded in a temporary defect management area to prevent further data recording on the write-once recording medium. Accordingly, the data recording status of the finalized write-once recording medium can be preserved.
