About

Hello! I'm a Principal Researcher at AIM Intelligence, where I lead evaluation work on the safety and reliability of language and multimodal models. I'm also an active researcher at HAE-RAE, an open-source community focused on Korean NLP, and I completed my M.S. at Yonsei University.

My research spans safety evaluation, alignment, bias mitigation, and adversarial robustness across multimodal and language models. The through-line is a single question: how much can we actually trust the AI systems we increasingly rely on, and how do we make them more dependable in real-world use?
