According to MBC TV, the police confirmed that more than half of the resumes submitted by Kim Jianxi to the five universities in South Korea were inconsistent with the facts, and 12 of the 22 contents in the resumes were confirmed to be fraudulent, including the experience of primary school teachers and awards. However, the police believe that these are not related to the core conditions of university recruitment, so they do not constitute fraud and cannot be held criminally responsible.

Regarding the results of the police investigation, the civic groups that had previously reported Kim Jianxi believed that the police's legal basis and judgment were wrong, and decided to immediately raise objections to the procuratorate. They argue that Kim Jian-hee will still be working at Kookmin University until 2016, so the indictment effect should continue until 2023.

Previously exposed to Falsification of resume:

He has two masters and one doctorate

Channel A said that the incident of "Kim Jianxi's resume suspected of falsification" was exposed in December last year. In December last year, South Korea's YTN television station published materials submitted by Kim Jian-hee in 2007 before he was hired as a professor at Suwon Women's University, questioning Kim's false reporting of his resume and the fact that he won the award.

In his resume, Kim claimed to have been a director of the Korea Game Industry Association since 2002, but the association was only established in 2004.

In addition, Kim has been accused of exaggerating her winning experience. She claimed to have won the Seoul International Anime Festival Grand Prix in 2004, but officially said the winner was not her.

According to China News Network, Kim Jian-hee said in her resume that she won a special prize at the 2004 and 2006 Korean Animation Awards, but her name could not be found on the list of winners at that time.

South Korean media pointed out that the winning works that Kim Jianxi said may be that H-Culture Technology, of which he is the director of planning, was directly or indirectly involved in the production, and the awards were awarded to the participating companies, not individuals.

On December 23, 2021, two South Korean citizens' groups accused Kim of fraud, pointing out that she concocted more than 20 false work experiences to deceive the school and students.

According to Red Star News, "I've been interested in art since I was very young. Jin Jianxi said in an interview. Korean media reported that Kim Jian-hee, born in 1972, majored in painting at Gyeonggi University during his undergraduate studies, and obtained master's and doctoral degrees in art and design from Sookmyung Women's University and Kookmin University.

After making his debut in the art and design world, Kim has also worked as a lecturer in a number of schools, founded the art exhibition curator "Covana Contents" in 2007 and has held art exhibitions for the works of internationally renowned artists. In 2012, Kim, who has become the company's representative, obtained an MBA from Seoul National University.

As the controversy widened, on December 26 last year, Kim Held a Press Conference to apologize to the people for his false resume.

At the press conference, Kim Said Hee said that she made mistakes in the process of juggling work and studies, and had falsified her resume to enrich her resume, which was really undeserved, and now in retrospect, she feels very ashamed, everything is her own fault, and asks the people to forgive. "At that time, in order to make [the resume] look better, I exaggerated my own experience, and there were also wrong things in it. In retrospect, it's a very shameful thing."

He has been married to Yin Xiyue for 10 years

According to Guangming Network, on May 10 this year, Kim Jian-hee attended the inauguration ceremony of South Korean President Yoon Seok-yue. At the ceremony, Mr. and Mrs. Yin Xiyue arrived at the National Assembly at about 11:00 a.m. on the same day and took to the podium with 20 national representatives.

Previously, the Global Network reported in March that according to South Korea's Chosun Ilbo, Yoon Seok-yue and his wife met through an acquaintance. After the first meeting, although Yin Xiyue liked Jin Jianxi, he gave up because of the 12-year-old age gap between the two, and deliberately threw away the business card given by the other party. But not long after, Yin Xiyue sent an email to Jin Jianxi to express his heart. The National Daily revealed that Yin Xiyue memorized Her email address before discarding Kim Jianxi's business card, and decided to contact her after hesitating. The introducer who learned of this situation then helped the two to create an opportunity to meet again.

After nearly two years of dating, the two married in March 2012, when Yoon Seok-yue was 52 and Kim Jian-hee was 40. The couple did not have children afterwards, but had 4 dogs and 3 cats.

On March 11 this year, when asked in an interview with the media about "what kind of person Yin Xiyue is as a husband," Kim Jianxi said, "(He) is always busy, but he is always a gentle and considerate person for me." Jin Jianxi also revealed that the most touching sentence yin Xiyue said to her was, "Cook you a lifetime of food." "When I was in love, my husband was upset that I was too busy with work to eat well," Said Jin Jianxi, who said that when he got married, he promised to "cook me a lifetime of food", and now that 10 years have passed, he still keeps this promise well. "I believe he will better abide by his agreement with the people."
