Sport career

At the 2012 Summer Olympics, Kim and her partner Jung Kyung-eun, along with Ha Jung-eun, Kim Min-jung, Wang Xiaoli, Yu Yang, Meiliana Jauhari and Greysia Polii were disqualified from the competition because their efforts were not focused on winning their matches, and their conduct was in a way that was harmful and violent to the sport.[4] They were also accused of trying to lose in order to manipulate the draw.[4] Kim and her partner Jung Kyung-eun played against China's Wang Xiaoli and Yu Yang.[5] South Korea filed an appeal to the Badminton World Federation at the Olympics, but it was rejected.[4]

She competed at the 2014 Asian Games.[6]

She competed at the 2016 Rio Olympics, in the mixed doubles with Ko Sung-hyun.[7] They were knocked out in the quarterfinals by the Chinese pair of Xu Chen and Ma Jin.[7]

In 2017, she helped the Korean national team compete at the 2017 Sudirman Cup and won that tournament.[8][9]
