A Kookmin University design team, named Holy, has claimed victory in the music video category at the 2026 Korea AI Content Festival. The prestigious award ceremony took place at the Construction Building in southern Seoul on August 6th. Holy's groundbreaking creation, "Epos," emerged triumphant among 225 submissions, earning accolades for its imaginative design, compelling narrative, and innovative application of artificial intelligence (AI) technology.
Consisting of five undergraduate students from the Department of AI Design at Kookmin University's College of Design, the team comprises Kim Se-hyun, Lee Song-won, Yoon Hee-won, Seong Yeon-woo, and Han Ji-woo. Team representative Seong expressed her belief that AI-generated works hold intrinsic value in the questions they pose, the messages they convey, and the direction they take.
She further emphasized that the award recognizes her team's dedication to continuously reflecting on the essence, concept, and direction of their work, rather than merely the technology behind it.
