The day after being elected south Korea's new president, Yoon Seok-wook celebrated his 10th wedding anniversary with his wife, Kim Jian-hee. This is not the first time Kim Has entered the public eye, during the South Korean election, she attracted attention, but it was all negative: she was exposed to falsification of her resume and had to apologize publicly. Now that her husband has been elected president, more of Kim's story as South Korea's future "first lady" is unfolding before the public.
Yin Xiyue promised to cook her a lifetime of food
I believe that many people's first reaction when they see Jin Jianxi's photo will be amazed by her youth and beauty. The same was true of her impression when she made her first public appearance in July 2019. At that time, Yoon Seok-wook was appreciated by President Moon Jae-in as South Korea's attorney general, and Kim Jian-hee sorted out the suit buttons for her husband. Kim Jian-hee is 12 years younger than Yin Xiyue, sweet-looking, and a little younger than his actual age, which has led to speculation about how the two came together.
In fact, the two are typical "late marriage" representatives: When they got married, Yin Xiyue was 52 years old, Jin Jianxi was 40 years old, they did not have children, but raised 4 dogs and 3 cats, yin Xiyue also posted photos of himself as a "pet blogger" on social media.
There are two versions of how the two of them worked together. In the South Korean media reports, they met through acquaintances, and after the first meeting, Yoon Seok-yue was very fond of Kim Jian-hee, but considering the 12-year-old age gap between the two, he once wanted to give up and deliberately threw away the business card that Kim Jian-hee left for him. But not long after, Yin Xiyue still sent an email to Jin Jianxi to express his heart - it turned out that he had memorized Jin Jianxi's email address before throwing away his business card. After the introducer knew about this, he helped the two create an opportunity to meet again. After two years of dating, they married on March 11, 2012.

Another version is that Kim Jian-hee and Yoon Seok-yue had known each other for many years before they got married, but Kim Jian-hee didn't look at the "uncle" who was 12 years older than her at first. One is because Yin Xiyue has not been married at that age, and the other is that he is too poor. Kim Jian-hee once said in an interview: "I think he (Yoon Seok-yue) has no money, and if it weren't for me, he probably wouldn't have married anyone." However, later, considering Yin Xiyue's self-confidence and generosity, cheerful personality, concern for future generations, etc., plus a "master" pointed out that she and Yin Xiyue had a fate and would have a good life after marriage, Jin Jianxi finally decided to get married.
No matter what the two cause, it is worth affirming that their married life is relatively happy. On March 11, when asked in an interview with the media about "what kind of person Yin Xiyue is as a husband", He said: "(He) is always busy, but at any time, he is a gentle and considerate person for me." She also revealed that one of the words that Yin Xiyue said most touched her was, "Cook you a lifetime of food." "When I was in love, he was upset that I was too busy with work to eat well, and when I got married, he promised to cook me a lifetime of food." Jin Jianxi said that Yin Xiyue has kept this promise well in the past 10 years.
Repeatedly let Yin Xiyue "fall into embarrassment"
Jin Jianxi, who is too busy at work to eat well, looks at her resume and is indeed a career-oriented woman. According to media reports, Kim Has a Doctorate and two Master's Degrees, studied fine arts at Gyeonggi University in South Korea, and later studied at Sook myung Women's University in South Korea, where he studied art education and obtained teaching qualifications. Later, she went to Kookmin University to continue her studies and received her doctorate. In 2012, she also received her MBA from Seoul National University Business School.
She has also had a rich career, having worked as a lecturer in a number of schools, and in 2007 founded an art curatorial company that exhibited works by some of the world's leading artists, and was the "Golden Representative" of the curatorial company. She owns a lot of property, and in 2019, South Korean officials' public disclosure documents showed that the total wealth of Yoon Seok-yue's family was 6.43 billion won (about 32.94 million yuan), of which 96% was Kim Jianxi's.
Jin Jianxi is a career-oriented woman
However, Jin Jianxi's seemingly glamorous resume almost buried Yin Xiyue's career. Last year's South Korean general election campaign was once in a "worse than bad" situation, the ruling democratic party presidential candidates Lee Jae-myung and Yoon Seok-yue were exposed to scandals, Lee Jae-myung was suspected of being involved in a real estate development project corruption case in Seongnam, Gyeonggi Province; Yoon Seok-yue was "on fire in the backyard", and his wife Kim Jian-hee was exposed to falsification of her resume: her resume and award facts written when she applied for teaching in 2007 and 2013 were false or exaggerated; her master's thesis was also accused of plagiarism, with a 40% repetition rate.
A few days after the scandal of Jin Jianxi's false resume was fermented, Yin Xiyue first came forward to apologize, and jin Jianxi also apologized in public. She admitted to falsifying her resume, saying that "it really shouldn't have been, and now I feel ashamed in retrospect, everything is my fault." Yonhap News Agency reported that Kim Jian-hee also hoped that the public would not condemn Yoon Seok-yue because of her affairs, "I feel very painful because such an excellent husband is embarrassed by me..." She said, "I will seriously review, reflect, and be cautious in the days before the election." If the husband is elected president, he will also be committed to the role of wife. ”
Kim Apologized for FalseLyting Resume.
In fact, not only did Jin Jianxi "drag his feet" for Yin Xiyue, but her mother also caused trouble to her son-in-law at one time. Yin Xiyue announced his candidacy for president in June 2021, and in July of that year, Yin Xiyue's mother-in-law Cui Mou was sentenced to three years in prison for insurance fraud. According to reports, Choi, suspected of partnering with three people to establish a medical foundation as a non-medical worker, opened a nursing home in Poju City, Gyeonggi Province, in February 2013, and defrauded 2.29 billion won (about 13.07 million yuan) from the National Health Insurance Corporation in May 2015. This dealt a blow to Yin Xiyue and affected his public opinion support.
In addition, Kim Jian-hee has also been caught up in some unfavorable rumors, such as being accused of plastic surgery "changing her face", and there are rumors that she was a reception lady in Seoul's Gangnam district , which Yoon Seok-yue and Kim Jian-hee firmly denied; Kim Jian-hee was involved in the "7-hour recording gate" in January this year, in which she was criticized for inappropriate remarks such as bribery of journalists during her 7-hour phone recording with a South Korean journalist.
The first "first lady" to have a job
These scandals, both true and false, have led to Kim's image among the South Korean people not being good. Some analysts believe that although she will be the first "first lady" in South Korea to have a job, after Yoon Seok-yue officially took office, Kim Jian-hee may not be able to continue to run the company. However, she can give full play to her professionalism in the field of culture and art and carry out various public activities.
Most of the "first ladies" of South Korea before Kim Jian-hee are presented in the image of Ken neisuke. For example, Moon's wife, Kim Jong-sook, graduated from Kyung Hee University in South Korea with a degree in vocal music, and was once a musician, but in order to support her husband's career after marriage, she chose to retire from the music scene, and also used her connections in the literary and art circles to help Moon Jae-in. During Moon's presidential campaign, Kim Jong-sook campaigned to solicit votes and won the favor of many South Koreans with his pro-people style. In 2020, she also went to the flood-stricken area to participate in the post-disaster reconstruction volunteer activities, and in the photos, her simple shape and sharp hands and feet were praised by public opinion as "grounded".
Moon Jae-in and his wife Kim Jong-sook
Kim Young-yu, the wife of former South Korean President Lee Myung-bak, is now implicated in her husband's corruption case, but she was also Lee Myung-bak's strength backing. It is said that she can always have a major impact on Lee Myung-bak at a decisive moment and will be "loyal" to him. When Lee Myung-bak decided to run for president, all four children in the family objected, but Kim Yun-yu said: "We should not block the future of men." Lee Myung-bak praised her as "the strongest backing."
