He has gained reputation as a defender who is also capable of scoring.
He began playing football during 4th grade at elementary school influenced by his older brother.
After graduating from Andong High School, he headed straight to K League instead of playing for a university.

Kim returned to Jeonnam Dragons in January 2007 amid rumours he will return to South Korea by playing for Suwon Samsung Bluewings.
