About Us
soma&mio builds the digital infrastructure of the self. From your own identity to your family and pets — we create a place for every self to reside.
Our Philosophy
Nosce te ipsum — ante omnia.
We believe the most important question in the AI era is not 'what can AI do' but 'who am I.' Before technology understands humans, humans must first understand themselves.
soma&mio was built on this belief. Where the external self (Soma) and the internal self (Mio) meet, true digital identity is born. Proving that Mio is the user themselves — this is the most fundamental premise of our business.
Six dimensions of identity — Soma, Lore, Anima, Micio, Dimora, Lyceum — each serves as an independent agent providing infrastructure for you and the beings you love. Starting from Korea, expanding to Japan, Taiwan, Thailand, the US, and Europe — building global identity infrastructure.
Founder & CEO
AI is changing the way we work. But most people still don't know 'how.' GD Lee has been bridging that gap.
As Chairman of KRSys Co., Ltd., he has designed IT solution architectures and built AI transformation strategies for enterprises. Finding the most practical answers between theory and practice, between technology and people — that is his approach.
He shares his experience and insights with global readers through publications in Korean, English, and Japanese. Under the premise of 'infrastructure for the self,' he founded soma&mio and is designing digital agents for six dimensions of identity.
Publication
THE AI-DRIVEN COMPANY
A management book that outlines how companies should redesign their organization, strategy, and culture with AI at the center, based on real-world experience.
Coming soon on AmazonAI ERA THESIS
When AI gives all the answers, the value left for humans is "what to ask" and "how to own your answer."
Hypothesis
This comparison is not a proven result but a hypothesis for the future we want to build. Lyceum provides a systematic environment for accumulating human competencies in the AI era.
6 CORE COMPETENCIES
The human domains that school scores cannot measure and AI cannot replace
The power to craft good questions
Uses 'do my homework' for 5 minutes and closes.
Transforms curiosity into precise questions.
The power to connect cause and effect
100 isolated facts. Scattered after the exam.
Automatically asks 'where does this connect?'
The power to see from the other side
'Sejong = great king, Choe Manri = bad minister.'
'Why did this person think that way?' arises automatically.
An unshakable personal standard
'What's the right answer?' Own opinions feel foreign.
'I think this way.' Own opinions feel natural.
A mind that never stops asking 'why?'
'Why?' has become 'Is this on the test?'
Curiosity thrives where unexpected questions are celebrated.
The power to master new fields independently
Answers with 'Which academy should I go to?'
First designs 'Who to ask and how to ask?'

Core Values
Veritas
Every relationship begins with transparency. We are honest with our users, our family, and ourselves.
Animus
Technology does not replace the self. It reflects, preserves, and connects it.
Fundamentum
Invisible foundations create visible value. We build solid structures, not flashy surfaces.
Tempus
We design value that spans generations, not short-term gains. Because identity is built over time.
