They are different because ''kötü'' finishes with a vowel, and as in turkish vowels don't go together you need a buffer letter to separate the final -ım/im/um/üm.

You can remember these letters within a sentence;
NeŞe YeSe

Note : Its meaning is not important(I wish Neşe would eat), its just for remembering

Why Is The Ending Not "im" Instead Of "üm"

Someone Has Probably Explained This Already but Im Clearly Stupid

NO, you are not stupid!
You are just some lazy like me. lol

Look at the left part of this site, this page. You will see "Learn Turkish" link. Then, a new menu will expand. try to read the lessons. It is about "VOWEL HARMONY" in Qdemir Lessons part.

if the last vowel is
a,ı=ı
e,i=i
ö,ü=ü
o,u=u

kötüyüm=i am bad
iyiyim=i am good
kötüsün=you are bad
iyisin=you are good
kabasın=you are rude
