Bio

Hello 👋 I'm an undergraduate researcher at ALIN Lab (KAIST), advised by prof. Jinwoo Shin. I am currently doing my graduation project at MMAI Lab (Yonsei), advised by prof. Jongyoo Kim. I have done my research internship at MIRLAB (Yonsei, currently SNU PI Lab), advised by prof. Youngjae Yu. I am currently majoring Nano Science & Engineering, and doing Electric & Electronic Engineering as a double-major. I expect to complete my bachelor's degree in the Fall semester of 2026.

I believe that the fusion of various modalities, particularly centered around language models, is essential for AI to positively impact society. Especically I'm interested in VLA models that can effectively understand and learn from action label free datasets. Also, applying multimodal reasoning models into science research is one of my interests.

Currently, I am also actively collaborating with AIM Intelligence and JOYCITY. Previously, I have collaborated with GOODGANG Labs. I am open to collaborations with other companies or industries - please don't hesitate to reach out!
