Kim was born into a poor family with an older brother and 3 sisters in Wanju in North Jeolla Province. His father was an alcoholic, because of his bad luck in business. This caused his family to be in chronic debt. His mother tried to make a little money working at odd jobs, such as working at a restaurant. Kim also tried to help raise money for the family by doing manual labor. Wanting to be a comedian, he left his home and move to Seoul to go to an apartment with other aspiring comedians. After 3 failed auditions on KBS and 4 on MBC, he was finally accepted by KBS in 2002. He starred in the Gag concert on the Master show as a Master, which is his most famous role.

His current agency is Castle J Entertainment. He made his first appearance in the movie called "Gift" in 2002. He was also the runner-up on Kim Yu Na's Kiss and Cry where famous entertainers learn how to figure skate from professionals.

He married a non-celebrity woman who is 7 years older than him, in 2011. On November 22, 2023 his agency Sky Turtle announced divorce after 12 years of marriage.
