According to AI TIMES, Kleon demonstrated the technical maturity of its conversational AI partner to the public by implementing a conversational AI partner that interacted in real time with cast members on SBS variety show "My AI Partner - Giyan Love." The program also drew attention, climbing to No. 4 on Netflix's "TOP 10 Series in Korea" just two days after its August 20 premiere. The core of the technology was not simply showing a human-like virtual human, but maintaining the character's personality and relationship while responding with voice, facial expressions, and movements in line with the cast members' words, the situation, and the flow of conversation. As a result, the AI was received not as a simple response tool but as a counterpart sharing the same space, drawing the cast into deeper immersion. Kleon is interpreting this not merely as a content experiment, but as an example that confirmed the potential of an AI interface that people can face directly. Going forward, the company plans to extend this approach into real-world settings such as finance, education, retail, and customer service, creating touchpoints that go beyond text- or voice-centered AI.
Perspective
The important point is that the benchmark in AI competition is shifting from answer performance alone to the experience of how much users feel they are interacting with a real counterpart. This case shows that when a technology demonstration leads to immersion within popular content, its market appeal becomes stronger. In the end, if the form of the interface changes at touchpoints that directly meet people, service models across multiple industries could also be reshaped.
