Kim Jung-wook has issued an apology for a false report of his daughter's acceptance into a nonexistent dual program. 

"Math prodigy" Sara Kim, a senior at the renowned Thomas Jefferson High School for Science and Technology in Virginia, was reported to have been accepted into a special joint program between Ivy League giant Harvard University and well-respected Stanford University. According to her parents, both schools accepted Kim because of her advanced skills and talents in mathematics, and even gave her an offer to study at both universities simultaneously. To prove their claims, Kim's parents provided letters of acceptance that were supposedly from both schools.

However, both schools stepped up to claim that such a program did not exist. To make matters even worse, they stated the letters were forgeries. "We have been made aware of an alleged admissions letter sent to Ms. Jung Yoon (Sara) Kim by Harvard University," reported Anna Cowenhoven, a Harvard Public Affairs and Communications official, to Yonhap News Agency. "We can confirm that this letter is a forgery." 

Stanford officials echoed the same statement. "I am confirming that the letter you received was NOT issued by Richard Shaw or Stanford University," wrote Lisa Lapin, a senior communications official at Stanford University. 

The father has finally confessed that the letters were false and has apologized for causing his family and child so much trouble and grief.
