Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang danced to "Golden," the theme song from the animated series "K-Pop Demon Hunters," during a taping of tvN's "You Quiz on the Block."
It marks the first time Huang has appeared on an entertainment program, in South Korea or abroad.
The "You Quiz on the Block" production team posted on its official social media accounts Saturday, writing "Jensen Huang on You Quiz — filming complete," alongside photos from the taping.
The photos show Huang seated across from host Yoo Jae-suk. Yoo is beaming, while Huang — wearing his trademark leather jacket — appears deep in conversation with the host.
The show also released a short video clip with the caption: "The third stop — the noraebang we couldn't make it to on Friday — we brought it to You Quiz." The clip shows Huang dancing to "Golden."
The episode featuring Huang is scheduled to air June 10.
On Friday, Huang wrapped up a samgyeopsal dinner with SK Group Chairman Chey Tae-won, LG Group Chairman Koo Kwang-mo and Naver Chairman Lee Hae-jin at "Hyeongnim Jeoyo," a grilled pork belly restaurant near Hongik University Station in Seogyo-dong, Mapo-gu, Seoul — accompanied by soju and beer — before heading to a BBQ outlet at Hongik University Station for a second round.
Huang is set to throw the ceremonial first pitch at a Doosan Bears home game at Jamsil Baseball Stadium in Seoul on Sunday.
He will take the mound wearing a Doosan uniform bearing the number 93, a nod to the year Nvidia was founded, and greet Korean baseball fans.
Later that day, Huang is expected to meet with NCsoft CEO Kim Taek-jin and other senior executives from major South Korean game companies to discuss AI game development, digital humans, simulation and physical AI collaboration.
On Monday, expected to be the final day of his visit, plans are being coordinated for Huang to visit Seoul National University's AI Institute and robotics laboratory, as well as LG Group, Hyundai Motor Group and Naver's Seongnam offices.
That afternoon, he is scheduled to hold a closed-door meeting at the Shilla Hotel in Seoul with executives from leading domestic AI startups — including Upstage and Nota — as well as robotics startups such as Realworld and Airobot.
Huang is expected to depart late Monday afternoon or Tuesday morning after completing all scheduled engagements.
