Harry Kim
Species: male human
Rank: Ensign
Date of birth: 2349
Place of birth: South Carolina, North America, Earth
Parents: Mary and John Kim
Siblings: none
Marital status: single, previously engaged to Libby
Starfleet officer who joined the crew of the Starship Voyager just prior to its disappearance in 2371 (VOY: "Caretaker"). In 2370, while attending Starfleet Academy, Harry Kim was the editor of the academy newspaper for a year. During that time he reported on some of the first activity of the Maquis against the Cardassians (VOY: "Investigations"). Kim had graduated from Starfleet Academy on stardate 47918, and was posted to Voyager shortly thereafter (VOY: "Non Sequitur"). Kim's position aboard the Voyager was that of Operations Officer (VOY: "Caretaker").
Family was very important to Kim, born in 2349, who made it a point to call his parents weekly, even after he joined Starfleet (VOY: "Eye of the Needle"). When Harry was nine years old, he and his parents visited a colony on a humanitarian mission. The colony had suffered a radiation disaster, and Harry had a traumatic experience when he inadvertently wandered into a hospital operating room and saw a little girl on the table (VOY: "The Thaw"). Harry was his parents' only son, and he had enjoyed playing clarinet in the Julliard Youth Symphony (VOY: "The Caretaker"). Even after the Voyager was lost in the Delta Quadrant, Kim spent one week's worth of replicator rations to replicate a clarinet, so that he could stay in practice (VOY: "Parturition"). Aboard Voyager, Kim's off-duty recreation included playing the title role in a holonovel version of the epic poem Beowulf (VOY: "Heroes and Demons"). Harry Kim enjoyed Vulcan mocha coffee, extra sweet (VOY: "Non Sequitur").
In early 2372, Kim accidentally piloted a Voyager shuttlecraft through a timestream, sending him into an alternate reality in which he had not been assigned to the Voyager, and was instead living with his fiancée, Libby, on Earth. In this reality, Kim earned the Cochrane Medal of Excellence for outstanding advances in warp theory, and he helped design a new runabout prototype, the USS Yellowstone. Kim returned to his original reality with the help of an alternate Tom Paris (VOY: "Non Sequitur"). Harry Kim was killed in 2372, when part of the Starship Voyager experienced an explosive decompression when the ship encountered a spatial scission. A duplicate of Kim, from a duplicate Voyager created by the scission, returned to the original ship, replacing Harry Kim (VOY: "Deadlock"). On stardate 50698, while on an away mission, Kim was infected with a Taresian genetically engineered retrovirus. The virus gave him genetic memories that compelled him to go to Taresia, where Taresian women tried to convince him that he was actually a native of their planet. Kim escaped when he learned that the Taresians planned to harvest genetic material from him to be used in their procreation process (VOY: "Favorite Son"). During the following years, Kim was striving to achieve more responsibilities, although the chance of promotion was slim. He was in command on the bridge when the Druoda weapon was found (VOY: "Warhead"), and he organized the repairs on the hospital ship he christened "Nightingale" (VOY: "Nightingale").
At the time of posting to Voyager, Kim had been engaged to marry a woman named Libby, with whom he was very much in love (VOY: "Non Sequitur"). Harry fell in love with a holographic projection in early 2374, rivaled by Tuvok, but the girl turned out to be an incarnation of a lonely woman who was using the ship's emitters to have some company (VOY: "Alter Ego"). Kim had a crush on the newly arrived Seven of Nine in late 2374, but it didn't work out (VOY: "Revulsion"). One year later, he felt attracted to Megan Delaney, although her twin sister Jenny liked Harry better (VOY: "Thirty Days"). The story continued when he had an affair with Tal, who was a member of a xenophobic species (VOY: "The Disease"). Finally, there was Irina, who invited him to join her on a shuttle race, but was actually a terrorist who had placed a bomb on the Delta Flyer (VOY: "Drive"). Harry was more than glad when Lindsay Ballard, a former good friend who died and had been buried in space, returned from the Kobali who had revived her. But eventually Lindsay decided to stay with the Kobali (VOY: "Ashes to Ashes").
