Early years
Kim's mother, Ga-young, first signed her and her sister up for figure skating when they were eight years old as a means of improving their health and growth. Due to the lack of skating rinks where they lived, the family moved to Gwacheon in 2019, where both sisters began training under Choi Hyung-kyung. 2022–23 season
Making her international debut, Kim won the silver medal at the 2022 Denis Ten Memorial Challenge on the junior level behind Inga Gurgenidze of Georgia. She then went on to win gold at the 2023 Korean Junior Championships by over twenty-five points. 2023–24 season 
In late July, Kim competed at the 2023 South Korean ISU Junior Grand Prix Qualifiers, finishing fourth. Her performances earned her two assignments on the Junior Grand Prix circuit. Debuting on the Junior Grand Prix, Kim won the silver medal at the 2023 JGP Thailand, 0.73 points behind gold medalist, Ami Nakai. At the event, Kim successfully landed a clean triple Axel jump in her free skate. She won a second silver medal at the 2023 JGP Hungary, despite missing her triple Axel attempt. Following the Junior Grand Prix, Kim won the silver medal at the national qualifier for the 2024 Winter Youth Olympics, to be held on home ice in Gangwon.
