Allegedly, Kris's father graduated from Tsinghua University, and currently, he is employed as a section chief at a branch of the Chinese Academy of Sciences. However, these rumors were quickly quelled when the Chinese Academy of Sciences made an official announcement through social media that the branch did not exist. As it so turned out, the rumors were unfounded. 

Kris, upon discovering that false rumors were being spread about his family, vented on social media, "No one should cross the line. I don't care what you may do to me. Just don't cross the line with my family."
