KO-REAson

KO-REAson is a series of Korean-centric reasoning language models developed in collaboration with OneLineAI, KISTI-KONI, HAE-RAE and ORACLE.

We use the Language-Mixed Chain-of-Thought (CoT) approach, which allows the model to alternate between English and Korean during the “Think” stage of reasoning, preserving key Korean terms while leveraging English for logical scaffolding.

Top-performing models of our series KO-REAson-AX3_1-7B-0831 (KONI-7B-R-20250831) and KO-REAson-7B-Q2_5-0831 show performance comparable to models trained on closed-source datasets such as Exaone-Deep-7.8B.

Model Details

The KO-REAson-0831 family comes in six variants based on the base model used.

Model (link)	Base	Notes
KO-REAson-L3_1-8B-0831	Llama-3.1-8B	`L3_1` → Llama-3.1-8B
KO-REAson-KL3_1-8B-0831	Koni-Llama-3.1-8B	`KL3_1` → Koni-Llama-3.1-8B; also called KONI-Llama3.1-8B-R-20250831
KO-REAson-G3-4B-0831	Gemma-3 4B	`G3` → Gemma-3-4B
KO-REAson-AX3_1-7B-0831	A.X.-3.1-Light (≈7B)	`AX3_1` → A.X.-3.1-Light; also called KONI-7B-R-20250831
KO-REAson-K2505_8B-0831	Kanana-2505 (8B)	`K2505` → Kanana-2505
KO-REAson-7B-Q2_5-0831	Qwen-2.5 (7B)	`Q2_5` → Qwen-2.5

Performance

Evaluation Datasets

The model's performance was evaluated across a total of 11 benchmarks, and the evaluation suite is divided into two parts: (You can check these benchmarks in HAERAE-HUB/KoSimpleEval)

Held-in: This set of benchmarks is used for routine monitoring of the model's performance during the training and ablation study phases.
Held-out: This set is used only once to evaluate the final model after all training and ablations are complete.

This separation is designed to prevent inadvertent overfitting to the benchmarks during the iterative training process and to provide a more accurate measure of the model's generalization capabilities.
