Kim joined Samsung C&T in 1983, and served in various management positions both in Korea and abroad. He joined Hotel Shilla in 2011 where he oversaw business planning, merchandising, and sales. From 2015, he became the head of Korea business at Hotel Shilla focusing on duty-free sales and marketing.

HDC Shilla said through a statement that Kim’s leadership was expected to help the company grow its sales, which had fallen stagnant following the recent drop in Chinese tourists to Korea.
