Chinese

The term Chinese referred to anything originating from the Earth country of China.
The Chinese were one of the civilizations visited by the alien being Kukulkan in the ancient past. The alien creature influenced Chinese architecture and agricultural development. Kukulkan told the Chinese to build a city, and when it was finished he would return. The Chinese only incorporated some of the designs into their architecture, such as the gateways and many dragon symbols, and never completed the energy amplification system that was supposed to signal Kukulkan. Kukulkan faded into mythology and was remembered as the Chinese dragon. ()

This indicates Kim is a Chinese American.
It should be noted that the name "Kim" is common amongst Koreans.
