Kim Jung Mo is a South Korean singer-songwriter, guitarist, musical actor, record producer and former member of TRAX (트랙스; previously known as THE TRAX and TRAXX). He graduated from Jungang High School and later obtained an associate's degree in Film Music from Dong-Ah Broadcasting Arts University.

He made his debut in July 2004 (using the stage name X-Mas) as THE TRAX's guitarist and bassist with their first single, "Paradox". He was heavily involved in writing the songs and, alongside bandmate Jay, co-wrote all of the tracks in the extended play "Cold-Hearted Man" in 2010.

In June 2011, he became part of the project duo KIM HEE CHUL & KIM JUNG MO (김희철&김정모, formerly known as M&D), releasing the single "Close Ur Mouth" and performing together until his departure from SM in 2019.

In 2012, the 4 band members were supposed to enlist together in the military, but he suffered from scoliosis and a broken collarbone, thus, delaying his enlistment. He served 23 months as a public service worker, and the band went on indefinite hiatus during that time.

The band returned in 2018, but SM decided to transform the group's concept from a rock band to an EDM band, and it was renamed as TRAXX. In April 2019, after 15 years with the label, he left SM Entertainment and a few months later, he released the single "Peach" in collaboration with Henry and then signed with PA Entertainment.

In July 2024, the band re-labeled as TRAX and released the new single "To Be Continued" to celebrate their 20th anniversary.
