Jang Dong-min, Hong Jin-ho, Pani Bottle, and Heo Sung-beom appeared on MBC 'Radio Star', which aired on the 26th.
Heo Sung-beom is called 'Kaist's new face'. After gaining popularity as a model, he graduated from the Department of Computer Science and is currently attending the Graduate School of Artificial Intelligence (AI). Recently, he appeared on a survival program 'Blood Game 3' and made his face known with 'Jang Dong-min's Calculator'.
On this day, Heo Sung-beom participated in the talk concert panel held when GD was appointed as a visiting professor at KAIST, and drew attention by revealing an anecdote of eating with him before the appointment ceremony.
Heo Sung-beom said of GD "He was very humble when I met him in private. I said 'GD's styling is great. Then, he said to me, "'Seongbeom's shoes are nice, too.'" I'm touched that you're so sweet."
In particular, on this day, Heo Sung-beom drew attention by delivering what he saw and felt about GD becoming a KAIST professor.
Huh Sung-beom was divided among the public about the appointment of JD as KAIST professor. There was an opinion that "How can I become a professor when I am not from KAIST?"
Then "But when I met GD, he was interested in science and technology and asked a lot of questions" And I think science people have a lot of troubles. However, science is a discipline that is never far from human. Therefore, investment and interest from academia and industry are needed. In the end, you need money to do research. To do that, we need a PR role to attract attention. The GD is so good at such a role, he said honestly.
