Kim Yeong Sang is a South Korean musician and independent trainee.

He was part of the pre-debut group originally called IM66. They were managed by MBK Entertainment (MBK엔터테인먼트; previously known as Core Content Media), and it was supposed to be a 10-member group. However, MBK began facing financial issues, and only 4 members ended up debuting in the sub-unit IM (아이엠). He was set to become the group's guitarist (using the stage name Ji Ho) but he was not chosen as part of the IM lineup and continued training.

After virtually no activities for several months, the group unofficially disbanded in early 2019 as no announcement was ever made, but all members moved on to their individual activities or other groups. He remained in the company and participated in "Produce X 101" but was eliminated in the earlier rounds.

He enlisted for his mandatory military service on October 17, 2019, and was discharged in early 2021. After serving, he seems to have left the entertainment industry, as he is now an entrepreneur.
