Kim Myung Soo, known professionally as L, is a South Korean singer, dancer, actor and member of INFINITE (인피니트). He graduated from Deoksu High School and later obtained associate degrees in Photography and Imaging from Ahyeon Industrial Information School and in Applied Music from Daekyung University. He then obtained a bachelor's degree from Hoseo University and a master's degree from Sejong University, both in Applied Music.

He made his debut in June 2010 as the group's vocalist, visual and face of the group with their first EP, "First Invasion". In 2012, the single "The Chaser" was named Billboard's third-best K-pop song of the 2010s decade and was included in Rolling Stone's list of 75 Greatest Boy Band Songs of All Time in 2020. The band was managed by Woollim Entertainment (울림엔터테인먼트).

He made his acting debut in Japan in 2011 with a role in the drama "Jiu" (ジウ 警視庁特殊犯捜査係) and in South Korea in 2012 with a role in "Shut Up: Flower Boy Band" (닥치고 꽃미남 밴드). In May 2013, he released a photo essay book titled "L's Bravo Viewtiful", which quickly became a best-seller. In February 2021, he debuted as a soloist with the single album "Memory".

He enlisted for his mandatory military service on February 22, 2021, and was discharged on August 21, 2022. After being released, he continued to do various musicals and promoting as a solo artist and as part of INFINITE.

He left Woollim Entertainment in August 2019 but remained part of the group and signed with Look Media Entertainment in March 2023.

In May 2023, it was reported that INFINITE established its own agency, Infinite Company (인피니트 컴퍼니), with Kim Sung Kyu as the company representative. The agency handles all promotional activities for the group while each member remains in their own agency for individual activities. A few days later, Woollim Entertainment CEO Lee Jung Yeop transferred the trademark rights for the name INFINITE over to the group so they could continue their activities without changing their group name.
