The event was graced by the presence of key project stakeholders, including Vice President for Planning Sohn Jin Sik, Professor Yoon Jee Sun of the AI Design Department, and Professor Lee Hyun Jae of the Film Studies Department, alongside industry and community partners such as Kim Min Jae, CTO of NC AI Co., Ltd.

Through this project, Kookmin University has focused on establishing ▲AI-based specialized curricula for creative industries ▲practical education models utilizing generative AI ▲Establishing a talent development structure linking Seoul City, the university, and industry. Particularly through collaboration with NC AI Co., Ltd., a leading domestic game and AI company, the university introduced the latest generative AI tools into course operations.
