Moonlight Peaks Kim Romance Guide: Unlock Luna Bay, Gifts & Date

Kim is a romanceable mermaid, but she is not available in the opening town roster. Progress the story until A Curious Passage unlocks Luna Bay, meet the Hosu family, and continue the bay quests. Once her relationship route is available, use Pink Rose or Chocolate Cupcake, reach four hearts, view the heart scene, and choose Invite → Ask on Date.

Kim is the curious and energetic Hosu sibling, living with Rei and Tae. The main complication is access: a new save cannot simply walk to her house. Romance progress depends on advancing the regional story rather than waiting for a fixed calendar day.

How to unlock Luna Bay and meet Kim

Progress the main story until Ludo brings A Curious Passage. You need Cat Form to enter the small opening in the Howling Marshes. Meet Tae on the far side and report back to Ludo; this opens Luna Bay and introduces the Hosu family.

Continue with The Mysterious Bay and Ludo’s Plan to connect the region to later town events. The Luna Bay and Aqua Form guide gives the exact fallen-tree, pizza, shell, and transformation steps.

Do not sleep through seasons looking for an “Autumn X” trigger. Players reach Luna Bay at different times because quests, forms, and scenes control the sequence. Clear active main objectives and revisit the relevant locations.

Best gifts for Kim

The current official Wiki documents two loved gifts:

• Pink Rose
• Chocolate Cupcake

It also lists Blue Plumeria and Yellow Tulips as liked. This is a shorter table than many older residents, so avoid filling gaps with personality guesses. Kim’s water theme does not prove that she loves every shell, fish, or seaweed item.

Pink Rose is the simpler repeatable plan because it avoids a cooking chain. Chocolate Cupcake is excellent when the required ingredients and recipe already fit the kitchen routine. Save one of each before visiting Luna Bay so the longer trip never ends without an interaction.

Kim’s birthday is not currently documented on the official Wiki page used for this guide. Do not assign her an invented seasonal date. Update the plan only when the game or a reliable current source supplies one.

The Samael and Kim wedding story

The main story prepares a wedding between Kim and Samael. The related quests include The Mermaid’s Wish, The Rehearsal Dinner, Kim’s Invite, and Bride’s Attendant Duty. Kim wants legs for the ceremony, leading to the special-shell chain and Aqua Form reward.

The ceremony ultimately does not proceed. This is important for romance searches: the story does not permanently make Kim unavailable to the player, and it does not remove Samael as a candidate. Continue the follow-up quests rather than treating the interrupted wedding as a failed save.

Keep story progression and affinity separate. Helping Kim with the ceremony opens scenes and systems, but the relationship menu still tracks the hearts needed for the player’s date route.

Where to find Kim

Kim lives in Luna Bay with Rei and Tae. Once Aqua Form is available, swimming and water routes make the region easier to navigate. Before that, follow the unlocked land access and quest markers.

Her routine may change during wedding quests, festivals, weather, and relationship scenes. Check Hosu House, bay gathering spots, and current map markers rather than relying on one permanent timetable. If she is absent during a story step, finish the journal objective or sleep once after completing the prior scene.

How to date Kim

When Kim’s route is available:

1. Talk to her and give Pink Rose or Chocolate Cupcake until she reaches four hearts.
2. View the available four-heart scene.
3. Speak to Kim and choose Invite → Ask on Date.
4. Finish the night and sleep.
5. Complete the outing at the start of the following night.

The game allows several dating relationships, but multiple invitations can queue in an unclear order. Luna Bay travel and story scenes already add timing variables, so invite Kim alone and keep the next evening’s opening clear.

After the outing, check that the relationship label has changed. Continue with conversations, gifts, and later dates. A completed Hosu quest is not proof that the four-heart scene has registered.

How to marry Kim

Raise Kim to eight hearts, view her eight-heart event, and invite her on another date. Choose the proposal at the end and select a wedding day. The earlier story ceremony with Samael does not block this player wedding.

Engagement reduces other current partners to four hearts and temporarily marks them hurt. After marriage, Kim moves into the farm home and opens two spouse hearts while still following her normal routine. Review the marriage guide if you want to explore other candidates first.

Common Kim romance mistakes

• Searching Luna Bay before A Curious Passage unlocks it.
• Waiting for a fixed calendar date instead of clearing main quests.
• Assuming every aquatic item is a loved gift.
• Treating the Samael ceremony as a permanent romance lock.
• Reaching four hearts but missing the heart scene.
• Inviting several candidates before sleeping.
• Assigning Kim an unsourced birthday.

Kim’s route is story-heavy but mechanically straightforward once Luna Bay is open. Advance the region, carry Pink Roses, and use the relationship menu to separate quest progress from romance progress. Read Kim’s character profile, the Luna Bay walkthrough, and the main romance guide next.

Before leaving Luna Bay, confirm that Kim’s daily Talk and Gift markers are complete; a Hosu family scene does not automatically fill them. Keep one Pink Rose outside bouquet storage, reserve a cupcake before selling cooked goods, and check the map after each new heart. Those habits make the story-heavy route predictable without pretending Kim follows an unverified fixed timetable.
