Playing career

Atlético Mineiro

Born in Juiz de Fora, Kim started his professional career at Atlético Mineiro at the age of just 20. He played professionally for the club for three years in the Campeonato Brasileiro Série A before moving to Saudi Arabia in 2003. Overall, he played in 55 league matches for the Belo Horizonte club, netting 10 goals. In his first season, he helped the club win their 38th Campeonato Mineiro title.

Nancy

Kim arrived in Nancy in 2005 after a short spell in Saudi Arabia with Al-Ahli. Kim arrived at AS Nancy just after they won promotion to Ligue 1 after finishing first in Ligue 2. In his first season at the club he helped them reach the final of the Coupe de la Ligue against OGC Nice. Kim started the game at the Stade de France in Saint-Denis and went on to score the game's winning goal in the 65th minute. He was taken off in the 90th minute to rapturous applause.

This propelled the team into the UEFA Cup in 2007 with the club reaching the Round of 16 before being knocked out by Shakhtar Donetsk. Overall Kim's time in France was less successful only netting 11 time in 74 Ligue 1 appearances.

Al-Arabi

At the end of the 2007–08 Ligue 1 season, Kim left AS Nancy for Al-Arabi in Doha, Qatar. In his first season with the club he helped them lift the Qatar Sheikh Jassem Cup. In that season, he helped them finish 6th in the Qatar Stars League.

Honours
gollark: I'd bet that not every implementation *is* actually fully compliant with the specs.
gollark: JackMacWindows said something about it only working post-Kaby Lake, so presumably the µarch and UEFI version are related.
gollark: Two Kaby Lake computers and a Zen 1 one.
gollark: I have a bunch of different things it could be tested on.
gollark: Oh, and about the lack of HTTP, backgrounds, that sort of thing (well, it's early alpha, so that makes sense). Still, it is definitely extremely cool.
