After debuting with SS501 in 2005, Kim released his first Korean solo album, Break Down, in 2011, and his first Japanese solo album, Unlimited, in 2012. Due to his commercial success, Kim is considered one of South Korea's biggest Hallyu stars of the early 2010s.[3]
Early life and education
Kim Hyun-joong was born on June 6, 1986, in Seoul.[1] He described himself as a studious child,[4] but he dropped out of high school to pursue a career in music. He later passed his high school exams and enrolled in Kyonggi University. After dropping out of university to focus on work, Kim enrolled in Chungwoon University in 2011 to study stage production management.[5]
Kim made his debut as a member of SS501 on June 23, 2005, with the group's first EP, Warning, released by DSP Media.[6][7] Their second EP, Snow Prince was released in late 2005, five months after their debut.[8] The group quickly gained popularity, winning multiple new artist awards in 2005 and 2006. The following year, in 2007, SS501 debuted in Japan with the single "Kokoro," which reached number five on the Oricon charts.[9] In January 2008, the group received a Newcomer Award at the Japan Gold Disc Award ceremony, making them one of only a few South Korean artists to win this award.[10]
In 2008, Kim joined the cast of the reality variety show We Got Married, where he was paired with singer Hwangbo. Dubbed the "Lettuce Couple," the pair was popular among viewers and won the Best Couple Award at the 2008 MBC Entertainment Awards. They left the show at the end of 2008 to focus on other projects.[11]
Kim and his Boys Over Flowers costars also sparked a trend among South Korean men who copied their "flower boy" style.[17]Tony Moly, a cosmetics brand for which Kim had been a spokesmodel since 2006, saw a 30 percent sales increase in 2009, which the company attributed to the popularity of the show.[18] Kim's contract with Tony Moly ended in 2010,[19] and he became the spokesmodel for another cosmetics brand, The Face Shop, later that year.[20]
Following the success of Boys Over Flowers, Kim played his second lead role in a drama, in 2010's Playful Kiss, a Korean adaptation of the Japanese shōjo manga, Itazura na Kiss.[21] The show flopped on South Korean television, but was an international hit on foreign television and on online streaming platforms, helping solidify Kim's popularity as a Hallyu star.[22][23]
At the end of 2010, Kim was chosen to represent South Korea at the opening of the 2010 Asian Games in Guangzhou, where he performed the anthem "Sunshine Again" with singers from Chinese-speaking countries.[24]

Personal life
Kim’s first son with his ex-girlfriend was born in 2015.[99]
During a concert on February 27, 2022, Kim announced his marriage with his non-celebrity girlfriend. Later, Kim’s agency confirmed the news.[100][101] According to his agency, they proceeded their marriage without holding a wedding ceremony.[102]
On July 21, 2022, it was confirmed by the agency that Kim's wife was pregnant.[103] His second son was born on July 29, 2022.[104]
Controversies
Assault charges
In August 2014, Kim's girlfriend, identified only by her surname Choi, filed assault charges against Kim, claiming that he repeatedly beat her, causing bruises and broken ribs.[105][106][107] Kim denied the charges, saying he had injured Choi only once and that it was an accident that occurred while he was practicing martial arts.[108] Choi dropped some of the charges against Kim in September after he apologized to her.[107] However, Kim was later fined 5 million KRW for injuring Choi, with prosecutors in the case saying, "While Kim claimed that he had no intention of hurting her, the damage from the attack was clear."[108] This was later rescinded in 2016 when the Republic of Korea's army and civil courts acquitted Kim of these charges due to evidence that came to light. Text messages between Choi, her mother and friends, statements by the director of Dispatch (the tabloid to which Choi provided her evidence) and statements given by the hospitals visited by Choi led the prosecution to state that there was "little to no credibility behind the former girlfriend's allegations that she had to receive a six-week medical treatment for her fractured ribs".[109][110] Hospital records also showed that she was not pregnant at the time she visited to get treatment for the injuries to her ribs.[109]
On November 12, 2020, the Supreme Court of Korea ordered “A” to pay Kim Hyun Joong 100 million won (approximately $89,700) in damages, upholding the verdict from the first and second trials in which they stated, “There is no evidence that ‘A’ suffered a miscarriage due to abuse, or that he had pressured her to have an abortion. As a celebrity, Kim Hyun Joong’s public image has suffered greatly and his reputation has been damaged.”[111]
Paternity case
In February 2015, a magazine reported that Kim and Choi had reunited and that Choi was pregnant. Kim stated via a press release that he had not seen Choi since she told him that she was pregnant in January, and could not confirm if he was the father since she had not been in touch.[112] His agency indicated that he would take full responsibility if he was found to be the father of the child.[113]
In December 2015, a paternity test revealed that Kim was the father of a baby that Choi had given birth to in September of that year.[114][115]
Criminal case
In May 2015, Choi filed a lawsuit against Kim for 1.48 million USD for mental distress caused by her relationship with him, and claimed that his abuse had caused her to miscarry a previous pregnancy in 2014.[116][114] Kim later filed and won a 100 million KRW counter-suit against Choi for defamation, with the court ruling that there was circumstantial evidence that she was not pregnant in 2014.[117] Her lawsuit was dismissed, and she appealed the decision.[79]
Prosecutors filed criminal charges against Kim's ex-girlfriend, Choi, for attempted fraud and defamation in January 2017.[118] In February 2018, Choi was fined 5 million KRW for attempted fraud.[119]
In November 2020, the 3rd Criminal Division of the Supreme Court (Judge Lee Dong-won, Chief Justice) confirmed a court trial that sentenced Choi to a fine of 5 million won on charges of attempted fraud and defamation by publication. Choi was found to have filed a civil lawsuit while knowing that her allegation that Kim had caused her damage, such as forced abortion, was false. In addition, she was also charged with falsifying evidence related to civil lawsuits, such as deleting some of the contents of KakaoTalk's conversation, and defaming Kim's reputation, including providing reporters with false evidence.[120]
Drunk driving
In March 2017, Kim was charged with drunk driving after police found him asleep in his car at a traffic light in Seoul. His driver's license was suspended and he was eventually fined two million KRW.[121][122]
Philanthropy
Following the Fukushima Daiichi nuclear disaster in March 2011, Kim donated 100 million KRW to earthquake relief efforts in Japan.[120][123] Later that year, he donated an addition 50 million KRW to earthquake relief efforts, as well as 50 million KRW to the Korean Red Cross, and 50 million KRW to a South Korean organization that gives coal briquettes to people in need.[124] In 2012, he donated proceeds from his debut solo concert to an orphanage in Fukushima Prefecture.[125]
Kim has also donated tens of millions of won to the Kim Hyun-joong Scholarship, which was established by a 15 million KRW donation from his fan club in 2010.[126]
In 2019, during his BIO-RHYTHM World Tour in Thailand, he donated 9.7 million KRW to support the tuition fees for the students from Sumakee Learning Center, Mae Sot District, Tak Province.[128]
