The source is extremely sparse. It only provides his name, birthday, age, gender, that he is known for directing, and that he has 8 known credits.
The word count requirement is 180-260 words.
Problem: There is almost no information to reach 180 words without repeating myself or inventing details.
Constraint Check: "You write ONLY verifiable facts that are explicitly supported by the provided SYNOPSIS and SOURCES. You never invent or guess... If a detail is not in the provided material, you omit it rather than guess."
Drafting attempt 1 (Mental):
Kim Shin-il is a male professional known for his work in directing. According to The Movie Database, he has eight known credits in the industry. He was born on January 1, 1972, and is currently 54 years old. His name is also recorded as 김신일. His content score is 88.
Evaluating word count: That's about 50 words. The prompt asks for 180-260 words.
Conflict Resolution: The prompt contains a direct contradiction. It demands 180-260 words but also strictly forbids inventing any information not in the source. The source provided is insufficient to meet the word count requirement without violating the "no invention" rule.
Strategy: As a "meticulous television and film archivist," I must prioritize the "ONLY verifiable facts" and "never invent" instructions over the word count instruction, because the word count instruction forces a violation of the core truthfulness constraint. However, I will try to expand the prose as much as possible using the available facts in a formal, encyclopedic manner to get closer to the target, though reaching 180 words with only ~5 facts is mathematically impossible without repetition.
Wait, let me look closer at the source:
Name: Kim Shin-il
Also Known As: 김신일
Gender: Male
Birthday: January 1, 1972
Age: 54
Known For: Directing
Known Credits: 8
Content Score: 88
Drafting attempt 2 (Formal/Encyclopedic):
Kim Shin-il is a male professional in the film and television industry. He is primarily recognized for his work in directing. Based on records from The Movie Database, Kim Shin-il has a total of eight known credits. His professional profile includes a content score of 88.

Regarding his personal details, Kim Shin-il was born on January 1, 1972. He is 54 years old. In addition to his English name, he is also known by the name 김신일.
Word count check: ~85 words. Still far from 180.
Can I expand the description of the source? The prompt says "Write a 180-260 word career overview... Use ONLY facts present above."
