About

I received my M.S. in Artificial Intelligence, advised by Prof. Jinwoo Shin at KAIST. I received my B.S. in Chemistry (major), Computer Science (double major), and Mathmatics (double major) at KAIST.

My main research goal is to efficiently adapt large language models for domain-specific applications, e.g., drug discovery (ICML'24, NeurIPSW'24), accelerated inference (ICMLW'25), and visual image generation (Preprint'25).

At this moment, I have paused my AI research career to pursue a J.D. at School of Law in Seoul National University. While I am uncertain whether I will resume my career as an AI researcher, I at least hope to contribute to the AI community through my expertise in the legal profession.
