King Jung Nam is a South Korean singer, dancer, and former member of TURBO (터보) and SNAP (스냅). He graduated from Hansung High School.

Before debuting, he worked as a disc jockey (DJ) in a few nightclubs. Star Music (스타뮤직) was forming a new duo and selected him and singer Kim Jong Kook. He made his debut in August 1995 as TURBO's main dancer and rapper with their first album, "280 km/h Speed". They were quite successful initially, and the company scheduled a comeback for the following year. But reports of internal conflicts began emerging, and it was revealed that the CEO had assaulted both singers during promotions and also stole a huge amount of money in profits. The duo went on hiatus. In early 1997, he decided to leave the duo as he was unable to reconcile his differences with the agency's administrators.

In 1999, he attempted a comeback as a choreographer and singer and became part of SNAP. The group gained popularity at the beginning. But after one year, he suspended activities due to insufficient support from his agency and after one of the members had an accident. SNAP disbanded, and he left the entertainment industry to run a dance academy under his own name.

Since then, he has appeared in a few TURBO reunions for several variety and music shows and, individually, has appeared sporadically throughout the years. He is represented by PA Entertainment (PA엔터테인먼트).
