Kim Ji-Ho (born July 22, 1974) is a South Korean actress.
Audiences were first introduced to Kim Ji-ho in 1994 in Shin Seung-hun's music video "For a Long Time Afterwards." She made her acting debut in Salut D'Amour that year, followed by the films A Man Wagging His Tail (1995) and Destiny (1997), both with Park Joong-hoon. Her popularity rose after starring in the 1995 television drama Apartment, and in 1996 she appeared in commercials for more than 30 products, including Kia Avella, Amorepacific Laneige, LG Corp, and Lotte Department Store. Kim's career later slowed down, but she continues to play leading roles in TV dramas such as Law Firm (2001), Glass Slippers (2002), Affection (2002), Single Again (2005), Even So Love (2007), and You Don't Know Women (2010).[1][2]
Kim has also acted in Korean stagings of Closer (2006) and Proof (2008),[3] and had a supporting role in the critically acclaimed sleeper hit Unbowed (2012).[4][5]
