He is best known for writing and starring in Searchlight Pictures’ Fire Island which, following its June 2022 release, went on to land him two Emmy nominations along with a “Best First Screenplay” nom at the Independent Spirit Awards. The multi-hyphenate has also been seen starring opposite Maya Rudolph in the Apple TV+ comedy series Loot, which recently received a third-season pickup. His first hour-long comedy special, Joel Kim Booster: Psychosexual, exploring his experiences and observations as a gay Asian American male with commentary on identity, sexuality, cultural expectations, and more, debuted on Netflix in 2022. The special was nominated for a Critics Choice Award and named one of the best comedy specials of 2022 by Variety. He also appears in Freeform’s "Chrissy & Dave Dine Out,” which follows Chrissy Teigen and David Chang, who, along with Joel, cracked the restaurant scene wide open in Los Angeles.

In 2017, Joel recorded a stand-up special for Comedy Central's The Half-Hour and a full-length stand-up album called Model Minority.
