Kim Heechul was first discovered through the Starlight Casting System 2002 and joined SM Entertainment soon afterwards. Before he officially debuted as a member of Super Junior, he was put into a group with Kang-In, Hero Jaejoong, and U-know Yunho called Four Seasons as to represent the four seasons of the year. The prospective group never saw the light when the two members, Hero Jaejoong and U-know Yunho, joined TVXQ which debuted in late 2003. However, Kim still maintains a close friendship with TVXQ.
Kim Heechul first debuted as an actor and made his first appearance on television, starring in the 2005 teen drama, Sharp 2. Soon afterwards Heechul gave frequent television appearances such as filming for commercials and television hosting. On November 6, 2005, Kim, a trained singer, debuted with Super Junior on SBS's music program Popular Songs, performing the first single "TWINS (Knock Out)." After debut, he has since made contributions to Super Junior's lyrics. His first production, along with bandmates Shindong and Eunhyuk, was the rap lyrics to "Show Me Your Love," a joint single of Super Junior with TVXQ.
Kim furthered his acting career after Super Junior's debut, having a lead role in MBC's youth sitcom Rainbow Romance with fellow bandmate Kim Kibum. He made his primetime debut in the SBS drama Bad Family. Before his musical debut, Heechul started his hosting career by being a regular MC for KM Show! Music Tank. Soon after the debut of Super Junior he switched to hosting SBS's Popular Songs. He has also been a DJ of his own radio show, SBS Power FM Youngstreet along with Park Heebon, but the program ended in mid-2006. Aside from acting, singing, and hosting, Kim is also an active participant in variety shows, making frequent appearances on Heroine 6, Vitamin, Sponge, X-man and Love Letter.
Kim suffered a major injury from a car accident that occurred on the night of August 10, 2006, when he was heading back to Seoul from Mokpo, where he went to attend fellow Super Junior member Donghae's father's funeral. The tires malfunctioned while his car attempted to switch lanes. From this accident, he fractured four to five places on his left leg including his femur, knee, and ankle which required a 6-hour surgery and sustained several other injuries including a tear to his tongue which required stitches. He was advised to stop all activities for a period of twelve weeks. He was released from the hospital on September 13, 2006 and received outpatient care. He returned to the hospital to have a second surgery to remove some of the iron rods in his leg on October 10, 2006. He returned to work briefly in late October to film the final three episodes of the MBC youth sitcom Rainbow Romance while still in a cast and in a wheelchair. It wasn't until late December when Heechul officially returned to individual activities such as variety show appearances and hosting appearances. In February 2007 he was able to perform on stage as a member of Super Junior's sub-unit Super Junior-T. He started performing with Super Junior as a whole (whose dance routines are more strenuous than those of Super Junior-T) in late April and early May. Five rods remain in his legs, which will require yet another surgery later on.
Kim was placed in Super Junior-T, the second sub-unit from Super Junior formed in early 2007 along with five other members. Different from Super Junior's usual urban music style, the group specializes in singing modernized versions of trot, an old style of Korean pop music. On February 25, 2007, Super Junior-T debuted on Popular Songs with their title song "Rokkugo!!!" Super Junior-T released their first single on February 23, 2007, ultimately selling over 45,998 units.
