Kim Sang-woo (Hangul: 김상우, Hanja: 金相佑; born July 3, 1993), better known by his stage name Roy Kim (Hangul: 로이 킴), is a South Korean singer, songwriter, and radio presenter. He initiated his singing career after winning Mnet's talent competition series Superstar K4.[1] Kim is also currently majoring business at Georgetown University.[2]

Kim officially debuted with his first studio album Love Love Love (2013). The album spawned two hit singles, one of which ("Spring Spring Spring") became the fourth most successful song of that year in South Korea.[3] Following the album's success, Kim won trophies for best newcomer at the 15th Mnet Asian Music Awards and the 2014 Golden Disk Awards.[4][5] The singer's sophomore studio album, Home (2014), produced a top-five hit of the same name.[6]

Kim has also participated in a number of soundtracks for television series: Reply 1994, Pinocchio, and Twenty Again.[7][8][9]

Early life and career

Roy Kim was born in Seoul, South Korea on July 3, 1993. His mother was an artist, and his father, Kim Hong-taek, is an executive vice president at Hongik University and a former CEO of Seoul Takju Manufacturers Association.[10][A][B]

During his elementary school years, Kim stayed awhile in Canada to study, later went to Asheville, North Carolina in the United States, and graduated from Asheville School in 2012.[13][14]

Taking a gap year before college in 2012,[15] Kim applied for Mnet's Superstar K4 (the Korean equivalent of American Idol), which he was crowned the final winner of the show out of 2,083,447 applicants.[13][16] He debuted as a singer, performing at the 2012 Mnet Asian Music Awards.[17]

In 2013, Kim entered Georgetown University in Washington, D.C. for his freshman year,[15] then returned to his native country for another album and tour. In January 2015, he resumed his sophomore year as a business major, with plans to continue alternating time for school and his music career.[2]

Kim performed at the 2015 HITO Music Awards in Taiwan, becoming the first foreign artist invited to attend the awards since they were established in 2003.[18] During the ceremony, he also was presented with a trophy for Favorite Foreign Artist.[19]
