Kim received the International Children's Book Award in 2004 from the Foundation Espace Enfants in Switzerland for his first Picture book, The Children of the Donggang Rive.

[4] Cat School (written by Kim Jin-kyung) released in 2001 was subsequently translated and published in Taiwan, China, Japan, and France. The book received Le Prix des Incorruptibles, a French children's literature award, in 2006. It is the only work from Asia to have been selected for the CM2/6e.

He has also created illustrations for works by Park Wan-suh, Kim Yongtaek, Kim Hyang-Yi, and Lee Guem-yi.
His illustrations often contain hidden illustrations. For example, the landscapes of rocks and the river in The Children of Donggang River contain hidden images of a large bird, a bear, a mother, a father and children. The forest scene in In the Forest features hidden images of a cicada, tigers, rabbits and dragonflies. [7]
