Kim Jae-Bum (born January 25, 1985 in Gimcheon, Gyeongsangbuk-do) is a male South Korean judoka.

Kim won a gold medal in the -73kg class at the 2004 World Junior Judo Championships in Budapest, Hungary.

At the 2005 Asian Judo Championships in Tashkent, he won a gold medal in the -73kg class.

Kim was considered one of the Big Three Judokas of the -73kg class in South Korea, along with Lee Won-Hee and Wang Ki-Chun. But in 2007, he moved up in weight to avoid the fierce competition, and won a gold medal in the -81kg category at the 2008 Asian Judo Championships in Jeju.
