Biography.
After finishing her undergraduate studies, Kim had dedicated her career in teaching arts in public schools in Seoul for over two decades til 2000. After retirement, she decided to hold her first solo exhibition as she was afraid she would never be able to pain again due to deteriorating eye sights and regret not having done it sooner.
After Kim's spouse was designated as the Prime Minister by President Moon Jae-in in early May 2017, there was false accusations that Jeonnam Development Corporation overpaid for her paintings to appease Lee. However, the paintings were not overpriced, given her experience and size of the paintings, and purchased 11 months before her spouse become the elected Governor of Jeonnam Province.
Kim holds two degrees from Ewha Womans University - a bachelor in painting and a master's in fine arts education.
