His older brother, Kim Jae Ki, was the band's vocalist for the 3rd album before dying in a tragic car accident. Band leader Kim Tae Won scouted Kim Jae Hee, and he promoted on behalf of his late brother and later became the band's lead vocalist for the 4th album, "About the Idle Thoughts" which, sadly, was a commercial failure.
He left the band after that and became a soloist but was not very successful. He fought with depression of losing his brother and guilt of taking his place in the band even for one album, that he went on a prolonged hiatus of over 10 years.
He reappeared on TV in 2017 for a few episodes of "Shadow Singer", and in 2020, he was a contestant on "King of Mask Singer" but has mostly focused on doing commercial jingles and talking about suicide prevention and depression around the country.
