Mesmerized by the off-road experience, the 35-year-old went through training for six months to prepare for a national GS Trophy qualifier. The training helped him hone his motorcycle skills and drop 10 percent of body fat.
His efforts paid off, as Kim was ranked third out of 24 applicants at the national qualifier held from June 17-18 in North Chungcheong Province.
Team South Korea has competed in the motorcycle race since 2014, six years after the biannual racing event first started in 2008 in Tunisia.
