Kim Kyung Ho (김경호, born June 7, 1971) is a Korean rock singer known for his efforts in bringing rock music to South Korea and his 4 octave vocal range.

Kim was born in Mokpo, South Korea. His debut album, released in 1995, was entitled "Kim Kyung Ho" and, while not commercially successful, earned him some recognition among Korean rock music fans. His more novel second album, "kim:kyungho 1997" was much better received. He also collaborated to the soundtrack of the 2002 Korean drama series Empress Myeongseong and 2004 (of which he covered Within Temptation song; "Mother Earth"). His most recent album, 9.5th Alive was released on June 25, 2009. In 2007 Kim was diagnosed with Avascular necrosis.[1] Recently he has enjoyed renewed popularity through his participation in variety shows, and numerous appearances in televised singing competitions as part of an entourage of industry-veteran vocalists.
