Career
Following his graduation in 2005, Kim began his career as an aspiring actor at the Daehakro Small Theater. He unsuccessfully auditioned for the Daehakro Theater Company’s comedian recruitment in both 2005 and 2006. Later in 2006, Kim and Kim Young-jo participated in auditions for the KBS2 program Gag Hunt in Yeouido, Seoul. They performed a military-themed skit personifying various food delivery items; however, the performance failed to impress the judging panel, and they were not initially selected for the program. Despite his initial audition failures, Kim was eventually cast in a segment for rookie performers on a program featuring established comedians. He initially struggled with the lack of formal training and the demands of scriptwriting. Kim was officially selected through the 22nd KBS public recruitment for comedians in 2007.

(Korean: 뭐~?), established him as a prominent figure in the show's lineup. Overaction performed at the Incheon Pentaport Rock Festival on 23 July 2010. By this time, the lineup had evolved to include guitarist Lee Kyo-won of the band Burette. Their setlist included original tracks such as "Android" and a cover of Michael Jackson's "Billie Jean." On 23 September 2011, the band appeared on the KBS2 music program Music Bank, performing the single "Taewon." The televised performance featured the core lineup of Yoon, Kim, and Kim Young-min, supported by Lee Kyo-won and session drummer Oh Kyung-su. In January 2012, Kim joined the Gag Concert segment "Four Things" (Nagasaji), which featured comedians satirizing various social stereotypes. Kim's role focused on self-deprecating humor regarding his physical stature, a persona that remained a consistent element of the segment throughout its run. His performance popularized several catchphrases, including a comedic rationalization for his appetite: "Of course, I thought about it for a moment, but..." == Personal life ==
