Kim Dong Hyun, known professionally as Gong Myung, is a South Korean actor, singer, and former member of 5URPRISE (서프라이즈). He graduated from Topyeong High School and later obtained an associate's degree in Acting from Dong Seoul University. He is the older brother of NCT's Kim Dong Young (known professionally as Doyoung).

In September 2013, Fantagio (판타지오) launched a new project group called 5URPRISE. The group members were selected through Fantagio's "Actor′s League," a program for discovering aspiring actors, and were trained for two years before making their entertainment debut. But, unlike idol groups, they began their careers as actors and then expanded into acting.

He made his acting debut in 2013 with a role in the web drama "After School: Lucky or Not". They released the single "Hey U Come On" as an OST for the drama and also began appearing in the music videos of labelmate group HELLO VENUS.

He made his official singing debut in November 2014 as the group's vocalist with their first single album, "From My Heart". The following year, they made their Japanese debut with the single album, "5urprise Flight". However, some of the members began getting more acting opportunities so the group had another Japanese single album in August 2016 and then stopped releasing new material.

The members' contracts with Fantagio ended in March 2020 and the group officially disbanded. He enlisted for his mandatory military service on December 14, 2021, and was discharged on June 13, 2023.

He is currently represented by Saram Entertainment (사람엔터테인먼트).
