Overview
HyperCLOVA X THINK is Naver’s reasoning-focused LLM for Korean and English. Trained on ~6T tokens, it uses a Peri-LN Transformer with a three-stage pretrain (to 128K context) and post-training via SFT plus RL from verifiable rewards. It supports detailed-rationale or concise-answer modes and adds multimodal (text+vision) reasoning.
Description
Beyond text, HyperCLOVA X THINK integrates visual inputs for multimodal reasoning—e.g., STEM problems and image-based instruction following—while emphasizing strong Korean language competence for agentic applications. Naver’s announcement materials highlight top performance on domestic expert-level Korean evaluations and note intentions to open-source components of the reasoning model.
