Kim Ki-bum (Korean: 김기범; born September 23, 1991), better known by his stage name Key, is a South Korean singer and television personality. Born and raised in Daegu, South Korea, he later moved to Seoul after a successful audition at the SM National Tour Audition Casting. In May 2008, Key debuted as a member of South Korean boy band Shinee, who later went on to become one of the best-selling artists in South Korea. Key is widely recognized as a singer and dancer, but he has also ventured into different careers, notably as a television presenter.
As a singer, he has collaborated with various artists, and formed the duo Toheart with Woohyun of Infinite. He made his debut as a soloist in November 2018 with the release of the digital single "Forever Yours", and his first studio album, Face, was released later that month. Key has also contributed to songwriting for himself and Shinee. As an actor, he was cast in multiple musicals, such as Bonnie & Clyde (2013), Zorro (2014), and Chess (2015). He has since widened his field as an actor by taking part in several television drama roles, like Drinking Solo (2016) and The Guardians (2017).
In 2015, Key became active as a fashion designer and took part in numerous projects. For instance, he collaborated with Bridge Shop House to design Shinee concert outfits, and worked with model Irene Kim and the brand Charm's to design fashion apparel. Due to the success of his works, Key was later appointed as a fashion director for the group. Since 2020, he has gained prominence as a television personality, appearing on the variety shows DoReMi Market and I Live Alone as a cast member. He has received the Excellence Award from the MBC Entertainment Awards in recognition of his variety performances.

In 2014, Key formed the duo Toheart with Woohyun from Infinite, a collaboration between SM Entertainment and Woollim Entertainment. According to the members, it was their idea to form a duo since they were close friends, but they weren't thinking of a musical collaboration, instead of photoshoots and similar activities. The duo was well received, winning the Popularity Award at the 29th Golden Disc Awards. Jeff Benjamin from Billboard praised their vocals, as well as their choreography and on-screen charisma. In the same year, Key was cast as the lead role in the musical Zorro, sharing the role with singer Wheesung and Beast's Yoseob. Zorro ran from August 27 to October 26 at the Chungmu Art Hall in Seoul. Key also participated in the MBC variety show We Got Married Global Edition.

He took the role of a student who had been studying for the civil service exam for three years. Although this was Key's first time acting in a television series, his acting was well received by the production team, stating: "Key is someone who works hard. He prepared a lot beforehand and as an actor, he comprehensively analysed his character role. He is receiving much praise and love from the staff. Despite having no experience in dramas at the time of his audition, his acting gave off a very fresh vibe. Furthermore, his acting and his enunciation were good and so we decided to cast him."

Shortly after, on October 20, Key performed a special stage at Charm's fashion show during Seoul Fashion Week. He performed a new song called "Chemicals", which was later included in his album.

He participated in a project on youth self-concept development started by students in his major.

His thesis is titled "The Influence of Styling Education on Appearance Satisfaction and Self-Esteem of Korean Adolescents".
Other ventures
Fashion
"The important thing is to not be bound by style in and of itself, but one attitude when it comes to fashion. Matching a fashion item to my own style in and of itself is fun." — Key
Key is considered one of the best dressed men in his country. His "unique and unconventional" style often mixes patterns and colors. In the media, his fashion has been compared to that of fellow idol G-Dragon; both are known to eschew trends in favor of pursuing their own distinct style. Key has stated that he enjoys trying new things to look different from others and that instead of being constrained by fashion, he cares more about the attitude towards fashion. He views fashion as a form of self-expression and prefers not to distinguish between masculine and feminine styles. Kim Eun-joo, a professor at the University of Seoul, has cited him as an example of non-traditional gender performance.
Key has ventured into the fashion industry. For instance, he collaborated with designer Ko Tae-yong on self-designed sweatshirts depicting his dogs and sold them for charity. In addition, he was appointed one of SM Entertainment's fashion directors and has been designing Shinee's concert outfits since 2015. The costumes for Shinee's 2015 single "View" were based on Key's ideas, adopting a vintage, skater-inspired aesthetic at a time when other groups mostly wore uniforms. In 2016, Key collaborated with Japanese illustrator Bridge Ship House for Shinee's fifth Korean concert tour Shinee World V. His primary goal was to achieve a balance between Shinee's identity as a group and each member's individual identities. Key also became a special editor for the Korean Elle, sharing his personal lifestyle in a column called "Key Story", which was released bi-weekly by the magazine. He shared tips on colour contact lenses, cameras, applications, and more. In March 2017, Key worked with model Irene Kim to design new products for fashion brand Charm's.
Endorsements
In January 2016, Key became a model for Jill Stuart Accessory. A representative explained that Key was chosen for the brand because he had promoted professionally in a variety of areas such as music and broadcasting, which showed an artistic aspect that overlapped with the fashion concept of the brand. In 2021, he was selected as a model for health and beauty store Olive Young alongside labelmate Taeyeon, in a campaign targeting younger consumers. He launched a skincare line named Key: Face in collaboration with Youlief, for which he personally designed the products. In 2022, he was appointed an ambassador for make-up brand Espoir. Soju brand HiteJinro introduced a black tea tonic drink based on a viral recipe invented by Key, promoted with "Key is back" packaging. It sold over 3.5 million bottles in four months, making it the fastest-selling product in the Jinro Tonic line, and contributing to an 83% increase in annual sales. In 2023, he began endorsing McDonald's, appearing in advertisements for their new burger. He became an ambassador for Donghwa Pharmaceutical's new health supplement, MgLab, and for lifestyle brand Longtake. In 2024, he was appointed an ambassador for the laundry detergent Perwoll.
Philanthropy
In 2012, Key and his fans from Korea, China, Japan, Taiwan, Singapore, Thailand and seven other countries donated 2.12 tons of rice to World Vision, which was used to feed 17,000 undernourished children and elderly people across 11 cities. In 2014, for Key's birthday, fans raised a total of 2 million won and established a well in Cambodia. The money raised also contributed to medical aid for poor children. In 2015, Key posted on his Instagram account encouraging fans to help citizens in Nepal following an earthquake. In the same year, Key collaborated with designer Ko Tae-yong and sold sweatshirts depicting his dogs. All proceeds (approximately 12.5 million won) were later donated to the Animal Freedom Union. In 2016, Key, along with groupmate Taemin and other artists from SM Entertainment, participated in the "Make a Promise" campaign organised by UNICEF and Louis Vuitton, whereby 40% of the proceeds were donated through UNICEF to children in need. Key visited Kyungpook National University Hospital in 2019 ahead of his military enlistment and made a donation of 10 million won to support treatment costs. In January 2022, he donated products from his Youlief skincare line worth 12 million won to the Korean Unwed Mothers' Families Association. In 2023, an online commenter drew attention in the media after thanking Key for covering the cost of their son's blood cancer medication.
