On August 2, 2023, The Korean Society of Superconductivity and Cryogenics took steps to address the ongoing controversy and unverified assertions surrounding LK-99. To establish clear conclusions regarding these claims, a verification committee was instituted. This committee, led by Kim Chang-Young from Seoul National University, is composed of experts from Seoul National University, Sungkyunkwan University, and Pohang University of Science and Technology. Upon its establishment, the verification committee reached a consensus that the two papers published on arXiv by Lee et al. on July 22, as well as the videos publicly accessible at that time, did not provide sufficient evidence to support the assertion that LK-99 possesses superconducting properties.
