Medal record |
Kim represented South Korea at the 2008 Summer Olympics in Beijing, where he competed in two épée events. For his first event, the men's individual épée, Kim defeated South Africa's Sello Maduma in the first preliminary round, before losing out his next match to Hungary's Géza Imre, with a sudden death score of 14–15.[3] Few days later, he joined with his fellow fencers and teammates Jung Jin-sun and Kim Won-jin, for the men's team épée. Kim and his team, however, lost the seventh place match to the Ukrainian team (led by Dmytro Chumak), with a total score of 39 touches.[4]
