Professional career

[edit]

Upon graduating from Inha University, Lim joined the Lotte Giants in 1998, selected in the first round of the 1998 KBO League draft. As a relief pitcher he garnered attention in 2004 when led the KBO League in holds with 22.

In the 2008 season, Lim became the closer of the Giants. In August 2008, however, Lim lost the closer's role to former Colorado Rockies setup man David Cortés.
