I am a first-year master/Ph.D student in the Cognitive Learning for Vision and Robotics Lab (CLVR) at KAIST, advised by Prof. Joseph J. Lim.

Before joining KAIST, I received my B.S. degree in Computer Science at Kookmin University. I also worked for Epic Games as a software engineering consultant and BinaryVR as a software engineering intern.

Research

My research goal is to endow physical robots with the ability to carry out dexterous, long-horizon tasks. My vision begins with creating robots that can assist in our everyday lives and eventually scales up to more complex tasks, like building houses or even entire cities!

This goal is rooted in my curiosity about understanding physical intelligence. To achieve this, I am developing agents with the ability to plan over long horizons, incorporating a physical understanding of the world. They also possess the capability to reactively adjust their control, much like many animals do.
