Career

Brought to Singapore S.League team Balestier Khalsa on the recommendations of teammate Park Kang-jin, Kim lived with him through his stay there.[1] However, he found it difficult to adapt as he was unable to communicate with anybody but his club was able to fund English lessons for him.[1]

Even though he scored in the 2014 Singapore Cup final and the 2013 Singapore League Cup, Kim was released, going back to his homeland to take up a job in screen baseball instead.[2]

Made the Goal.com S.League Team of the Week for Round 13 in 2013[3] with a goal in a 2–2 tie with Geylang International.

Personal life

Kim was born in South Korea. He had not learned English in school, and was reticent when having to speak it in Singapore.[1]
