'As far as I know' / 'known for'

-기로 fixes the basis on which something is said. Three lines here use 알기로 'as far as I know': 제가 알기로 그런 거 없고 'as far as I know there's no such thing.' Two more use it for reputation — 애드리브 없기로 소문난 'famous for having no ad-libs', 저기로 가기로 유명해요 'known for going there.' It is also the piece inside 기로 하다 'to decide to'.
