Kim Mu Jung (김무중) has been competing for 8 years. His best event is the 2×2: a personal-best single of 2.42, set at Korean Championship 2019, puts him in the top 8.1% of the 186,767 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 230th in Republic of Korea. Until February 2008, no official 2×2 solve in the world had been that fast. Across 3 competitions since December 2018, he has put 33 official solves on the record across two events. His 2×2 best has come down from 4.50 in December 2018 to 2.42, a 46% improvement. Kim has entered three competitions, more competitions than 69% 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.
