He also trained under acting coach, Moon Won-Joo who is regarded as a good coach around Seoul.
Taking acting lessons developed the amateur actor inside him and he started to love acting more than he loved modeling. It was his acting coach who gave Kim his first ever major acting role in 2011 after he was cast in a TV show named White Christmas, which was sort of a mystery drama.
That same year, he also appeared in a comedy-drama named Vampire Idol. Impressed by his work, Moon was delighted and publicly said he was happy that he gave Kim a chance to prove his worth. A year later, Kim also appeared in a comedy TV film A Gentleman's Dignity and also in the To the Beautiful You.

Despite his busy schedule, he managed to pull out time for a role in the movie Friend: The Great Legacy whose first part was a big success already in 2001. An action-packed film, Kim was so excited when his name had been called out for this film. He worked out some fight moves and also gained some 9 kg for the role that he had to portray.
