In the 2025 College Scholastic Ability Test, which was held on the 14th, a unique question that embarrassed the examinees has become a hot topic.

According to the education community, in reading, a common subject in the Korean language field, only the word "noise" appeared more than 40 times in the "Artificial Intelligence Diffusion Model for Image Generation", which is fingerprint 10 to 13.

For example, in the text, there are sentences with "noise" five times, such as "When learning the noise predictor, the noise made by the noise generator corresponds to the correct answer, and the difference between this noise and the predicted noise is learned."

The problem has also become a hot topic in the test-taker community. One netizen also posted a message saying, "I think of Rosé's apartment," which he repeatedly calls "apartment."

In addition, there was a worrying response, saying, "The word 'noise' may be repeated and reading may be pushed back."

Meanwhile, it was analyzed that the Korean language section of the 2025 SAT was presented at an easier level than 2024.

Han Byung-hoon, a teacher at Cheonan Central High School, a representative lecturer of EBS's Korean language, said at a briefing on the Korean language section for the 2025 academic year held at the Sejong Government Complex, "We maintained the trend of the mock evaluation in September this year according to the direction of the questions to measure reading and thinking skills learned through school education. The overall difficulty level is easier than last year's CSAT."
