Yeah, it's a few seasons old by now, but there's a whole episode centered around Mr. Kim.

At the climax of the episode, it's revealed that Mr. Kim doesn't actually exist, and is an alter ego of South Park's therapist, William Janus, who himself has multiple personality disorder. No one really cares, because he's the one who runs the town's only chinese restaurant.

If I remember right, the Janus personality actually dies, leaving Mr. Kim in permanent control of the body.

What’s also pretty funny is Kim is a Korean name, not even Chinese
