Kim attended the Korea National Sport University.[2] He won the silver medal in the men's artistic individual all-around at the 2004 Athens Olympics,[3] and his loss to American Paul Hamm by a 0.012 margin was the closest in men's Olympic all-around history, though tied by Tatiana Gutsu's win over Shannon Miller in 1992.[4] At the 2006 Asian Games, Kim tied with Yang Wei of China for the gold medal on parallel bars[5] and was part of the South Korean team that won the bronze medal in the team event.[6] Kim tied with Mitja Petkovšek from Slovenia for the gold medal on the parallel bars at the 2007 World Artistic Gymnastics Championships.[7]
