Kim Tae-ho launched his acting career after he won the grand prize in the KBS reality talent show Survival Star Audition in 2006.[3][4] He began using the stage name Choi Jin-hyuk in 2010, prior to the airing of family drama It's Okay, Daddy's Girl, in which he was cast in his first leading role.[5] He also starred in the romantic comedies I Need Romance (2011),[6] and Miss Panda and Mr. Hedgehog (2012).[7][8] Choi made his big-screen debut in the romance film Love Clinique.[9]

His breakout came in 2013 after a well-received appearance on fantasy-period drama Gu Family Book.[10][11][12][13][unreliable source?] Afterwards, Choi landed supporting roles in two high-profile projects: writer Kim Eun-sook's trendy drama The Heirs, and the action film The Divine Move.[14][15] His costar in The Divine Move, Jung Woo-sung also directed him in the short film Beginning of a Dream (Choi had joined Jung's agency Red Brick House).[16][17]

In 2014, he headlined his first miniseries, the cable romantic comedy/medical drama Emergency Couple.[18][3][19] Choi then returned to network television with a supporting role in You Are My Destiny, a remake of the 2008 Taiwanese drama.[20] Another leading role followed with the legal drama Pride and Prejudice.[21][22] He was also cast in a minor role in the Japanese film Koisuru Vampire ("Vampire in Love").

Choi went on a hiatus from acting when he enlisted for mandatory military service on March 31, 2015.[22][23] He had the option to join the Seoul Police Promotional Team, the theater unit under the Seoul Metropolitan Police Agency, but choose to serve as an active duty soldier.[24] He was discharged from the army after just seven months due to a knee injury.[25]

Choi made his return with the crime thriller Tunnel,[26] which was a hit in China.[27] In 2018, he was cast in the romantic comedy drama Devilish Charm,[28] and mystery thriller series The Last Empress.[29]

In 2019, Choi was cast in the thriller drama Justice.[30]

In 2020, Choi starred in the science fiction action drama Rugal[31] and Zombie Detective. He also made a special appearance in TVN smash-hit drama Mr. Queen as an arrogant and flirty chef whose soul was trapped in Shin Hye-sun's body back in the Joseon era.

In February 2023, he also held a fan-meeting event in Taiwan.[32] In October 2023, he signed with Workaholic Entertainment.[33]
