Hi, I’m Jaemin Kim, a tenure-track Assistant Professor in the Department of Advertising & Public Relations at Hanyang University ERICA, who believes ‘creativity’ based on ‘goofiness’ is the golden key to scholars who live in academia represented by ‘logic’ and ‘rationality.’

My research interests focus on how cutting-edge technologies, such as blockchain, metaverse, and AI (Artificial Intelligence), impact consumers’ cognitive and affective responses toward persuasive messages in various contexts, including sports. Pursuing my academic enthusiasm, I vigorously conducted and designed the research as a member of the Advertising & Branding Insights Studio (AdBiS) and Computational Research Method Club (CRMR) at the University of Georgia.
