At Rockefeller Center, the company unveiled “Schofield Stein”, a humanoid robot modelled on its CEO, Schofield Choi. The robot and the man held a staged conversation side by side about relations between humans and robots.

In Times Square, 16 humanoid robots gave a synchronised performance. According to Galaxy Corporation, which is diversifying into robotics, the event was meant to show how these robots can find a place in live shows.

The company also held a “hug challenge for peace” on the square, during which the CEO's son hugged one of the robots.
