Kim Young Woon, born on January 17, 1985, better known by his stage name Kang In, is an entertainer, singer, and a member of Korean boy band Super Junior. He was one of the three MC's for M.NET's M!Countdown along with bandmates Lee Teuk and Shin Dong before he was replaced by Eun Hyuk. He was also a former DJ for "Reckless Radio" where Super Junior members often visited as guests, but is now replaced by bandmate Sung Min. He is currently a DJ for MBC's "Good Friend Radio" with Tae Yeon of Girls' Generation.
