Kim Ki-Nam, son of a steel worker, attended the Soongsil School and joined a student group that was opposed to Japanese occupying power. He later studied at the Kim-il-Sung University and completed further studies in the Soviet Union. He then entered the foreign service and was initially an embassy council at the message in the People’s Republic of China in 1952 and most recently ambassadors.

After returning to North Korea in 1956, he was initially head of the section in the international department of the ZK of the PDAK before taking over a professorship at the Kim-il-Sung University. After studying at the KPDSU party college in Moscow in 1961, he became dean at the Kim-il-Sung University and also wrote articles for the daily newspaper since 1964 Rodong Sinmun .

In 1966 he became deputy head of the ZK department for agitation and propaganda, where he worked closely with Kim Jong-il, who became head of this department in 1967.

Kim, who has been a member of the PDAK Central Committee since 1980, became Vice Chair of the Union of Foreign Reporters in 1981.

After he initially became head of the ZK department for agitation and propaganda in 1985, a “downgrade” took place in 1987 when he became the first vice manager of this department. Five years later, Kim, who was also awarded the Kim-il-Sung Order in 1992, rose again and took over the important office of ZK secretary for propaganda.
