4×4 · top 0.3% of 83,917 all-time · competing since January 2024 · 2024HANE01
Ha Neul (하늘) has been competing for 3 years. His best event is the 4×4: a personal-best single of 22.82, set at Seoul Summer 2026, puts him in the top 0.3% of the 83,917 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 8th in Republic of Korea. Until August 2014, no official 4×4 solve in the world had been that fast. Across 21 competitions since January 2024, he has put 581 official solves on the record across six events. Solve to solve, his 3×3 times vary about 15% around a typical one; 79% of the 35,811 competitors with ten or more counted rounds hold a tighter spread. That figure sets aside his 15 DNFs. His 4×4 best has come down from 41.54 in January 2024 to 22.82, a 45% improvement. Ha has entered 21 competitions, more competitions than 97% of everyone who has ever competed.

Reading this page: a single is one solve's time · an average is the middle three of five solves, best and worst discarded · a PB is a personal best · a DNF (did not finish) is an attempt with no valid result: a popped piece, an unsolved face, an over-limit memorisation · top X% compares against everyone ever ranked in that event, which is fairer than raw rank because event pools differ tenfold.
