After the publication of The New York Times’ nail salon investigative report, the validity of its claims about the industry soon came into doubt. Amid increased scrutiny, the accuracy of its reporting on nail salons was challenged by several media outlets. Richard Bernstein, a former New York Times reporter, expressed serious doubts about its claims of widespread abuses and “astonishingly low” wages, and showed that its translation and understanding of job ads in the industry, one of its key pieces of evidence, were either inaccurate or false. In October 2015, Reason published a three part re-reporting of the story by Jim Epstein, charging that the New York Times’ series was filled with misquotes and factual errors with respect to both its claims of illegally low wages and of health hazards. In November 2015, the Times public editor concluded that the Times’ exposé’s “findings, and the language used to express them, should have been dialed back — in some instances substantially” and recommended that “The Times writer further follow-up stories, including some that re-examine its original findings and that take on the criticism from salon owners and others — not defensively but with an open mind.”

In the summer of 2015, following an investigative report by The New York Times, Kim helped to draft a measure to improve the conditions in the nail salon industry. The law Kim passed created a trainee nail specialist program and modified the Secretary of State’s enforcement of licensing requirements. Soon after, however, Governor Andrew Cuomo called a state of emergency and unilaterally implemented other requirements, such as wage bonds for nail salons, that were not part of the new law. These additional requirements caused excessive hardships for small business owners in the industry, and many of them were forced to close their stores. Kim spoke out against the new unilateral mandates imposed by the governor, which were not part of the law their offices had worked on and agreed to. He subsequently introduced and became the primary sponsor of a bill to relieve the financial and economic burdens that small business owners, including those in the nail salon industry, were facing. As a result of his efforts, the bill passed both houses of the New York State Legislature, but the governor refused to sign it.
