He left the Unicorns after the 2006 season for his original franchise, the LG Twins. At the time, his ₩1.55 billion contract was a record for a manager or coach. Kim managed the LG Twins from 2007 to 2009, but without the success he had with the Unicorns.

In 1990, the Cheongryong became the LG Twins, and immediately won the Korean Series, with Kim as the starting shortstop.

Kim was already 28 years old when the KBO League was formed in 1982.

He led the league in stolen bases with 50 in 1985, and in runs scored in 1986 with 67.

In 1977, Kim led the South Korean amateur league in seven offensive categories — batting average, home runs, RBI, runs, stolen bases, on-base percentage, and slugging. He was on the South Korean team that won the Silver Medal at the 1981 World Games.
