At the age of 6, Shim started short track speed skating in her hometown Gangneung as a hobby. Shim Suk-Hee entered the world of short track due to her older brother, Shim Gyo Kwang’s, influence when she was six years old. Her talent was obvious from her time since elementary school, Kyungpo Elementary School, and led Shim’s parents to fully support Shim on her short track career. Shim spends rest of her elementary school years in Seoul and starts her inaugural Youth National Team career as she enters her middle school. Shim's first major international competition was in 2011, when she was 14, in the World Junior Championships.

In 2019, Shim revealed that she was sexually abused by former coach Cho Jae-beom, as a teenager.

She further accused Cho that the sexual abuse continued until about two months before the Pyeongchang Winter Olympics that took in place in February 2018.

The allegations came out to surface in early 2018, when Shim left the national team to avoid further assaults.
