Cheyon Jin

Hi! I'm a Master's student at HOLI Lab in Seoul National University, under the supervision of Yohan Jo.

My research interest lies in LLM agents, particularly in integrating value learning and tool use. I am interested in building human-interactive agents, combining reasoning, decision-making, and real-world action to bridge the gap between model capabilities and practical deployment.
