Early career

Kim began learning to skate in 2006. Her ISU Junior Grand Prix (JGP) debut came in August 2013. After placing fifth in Riga, Latvia, she had the same result the following month in Gdansk, Poland. Ranked 14th in the short program, she qualified to the free skate at the 2014 World Junior Championships in Sofia, Bulgaria, and went on to finish tenth overall.

Kim's first senior international was the 2016 Four Continents Championships in Taipei, Taiwan; she finished 9th after ranking 8th in both segments.

2016–17 season

In September 2016, Kim won the silver medal at a Challenger Series event, the Lombardia Trophy in Bergamo, Italy. Making her Grand Prix debut, Kim placed 8th at the 2016 Skate Canada International in late October.

In January 2017, she was awarded the bronze medal at the South Korean Championships. At the 2017 Four Continents Championships in Gangneung, South Korea, she placed 17th in the short program but withdrew before the next segment. She had inflammation in both ankles and pain in her thigh. A week later, she decided to withdraw from the 2017 World Championships.
