Baek Kang-hyun (13), who appeared in the "Gifted Foundation", opened up about the background of dropping out of science high school.
SBS's "Infinity" aired on the 9th showed Baek Kang-hyun, who appeared in the "Gifted Exploration Team" in the past, and delivered his recent status.
Baek Kang-hyun is a gifted child who surprised countless viewers by creating an equation using unknown X at the young age of 41 months. At the time, the IQ was 204. He was promoted early to the fifth grade of elementary school at the age of 7, entered middle school at the age of 9, and went to science high school at the age of 10.

However, when he was a science high school student, he suffered from school violence and eventually chose to drop out.
In response, Baek Kang-hyun said, "I cried a lot then. I didn't want to drop out. I still think of science high school as my alma mater," he said.
Baek Kang-hyun's mother said, "I had problems with a toxic student," adding, "I posted bad messages on the Internet and was bullied a lot." That's why I dropped out," he explained. According to the notification of the decision on the measure released at the same time, the student who committed the school violence was sentenced to "school violence No. 3."
Later, Baek Kang-hyun received an offer to study abroad and applied to Oxford University in England. The top-level entrance exam had a final interview with a score of 85, much higher than MAT's average score of 65, but was eliminated.
