Truly a wonderful man, and a wildly intelligent professor. He reads people very well, and clearly knows what he is talking about. He can come off as intimidating at times, but he genuinely wants to help.

Comment:
He is a horrible, heartless, ruthless being. If he sees you as a good person/student he will envy you and do everything in his power to break you. He tore me down repeatedly and told me I was not good enough for anything, and my major has nothing to do with theater. He doesn't teach; instead, he has the class give presentations. Take something else

Kim is one of the best teachers I've had at ISU. I took his World Arts Theater class having no prior experience reading plays other than in high school, and it was one of my favorite classes I've taken so far. Very engaging discussions after the individual reading of phenomenal plays. Take this class if you want to learn about cultures of the world

Comment:
There are 2 types of instructors: Those with professional experience who possess real knowledge, and those that were unsuccessful in the real world who were forced to seek sanctuary in academia… Kim is definitely the latter! He has no grasp of the professional acting world, and it is painfully obvious that he envies all those who do.

Comment:
Kim is a very intimidating at first because he comes off as pompous and self serving. However, everything he talks about in Acting is very useful and he never criticizes without wanting you to become better. He has a great passion in his acting class and seems to love helping students develop as actors.

Kim is awesome! He is VERY intimidating at first, but never makes you feel stupid or completely wrong. Even if you don't completely understand your "objective" he will HELP you, talking to you and making sure you understand everything. Also, he is hilarious and has a great sense of humor. Try your best in this class, and show an obvious effort, a

He’s the worst teacher I have ever had hands down. If you are a techie make sure when you take acting you don’t have him as a teacher because he will treats you like your lower then everyone else.

I think Kim is one of the most amazing teachers I've ever had! He's incredible! Constantly makes me laugh and works with me and talks with me when working on a scene not at me. He understands that there are different perspectives and makes the entire class feel extremely comfortable You know after your scared to death because he's so intimidating

Very intimidating. You must work harder than you ever have before. He has a low tolerance for BS or anything less than outstanding. Good teacher, but scary!

Kim is a great teacher. If your narrow-minded, you might have a problem with him because he will rock your world. He wants students to work hard, so don't expect an easy grade and at the college level we shouldn't.

He's a great teacher, and he doesn't tollerate crap. He can be intimidating if you don't know his humor and the way he is. Can be very tough grader, but he wants you to earn your grades. He's very cultured and has a zest for life that he likes sharing.

tries too hard to be intimidating. just makes students hate him. needs to get off his high horse, and learn to relate to students, rather than trying to scare them.
