As I am a new fan of SPN( really! ) I didn't know anything about Kim ever before.
I watch some X-Files. But not So much fan or even Buffy! For me I'm a virgin for any of Fandom experience!
So if you have a feeling like me why this man is so inspire by either cast,crew even fans are talking about Let's me tell you more about him.As first I saw this name on which dedicated SPN Season 4 for him. I wondered who is this man? After that i watch many clips on youtube which J2 keep mention about the man. So i just found he's a director! Duh Me! check out this video about how he got in the show! lol !

Bob Singer :" I remember that Kim, even when he was sick, always had this " Everything will be alright" attitude and "we'll get through this!" spirit.
These are only some of story. Specially Jensen. Kim also said one day Jensen will be doing one day. Which is true. So far he did 3 episodes and he always mentions Kim as his mentor. Jensen mentions Kim at 0.51
