Lee Dohyeon (이도현) has been competing for 4 years. His best event is the 3×3: a personal-best single of 9.78, set at Anyang Haseyo 2024, puts him in the top 6.9% of the 284,439 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 404th in Republic of Korea. Until October 2007, no official 3×3 solve in the world had been that fast. Across 7 competitions since July 2022, he has put 134 official solves on the record across ten events. Solve to solve, his 3×3 times vary about 17% around a typical one, an early reading from 8 counted rounds. That figure sets aside his 3 DNFs. His 3×3 best has come down from 13.90 in July 2022 to 9.78, a 30% improvement. Lee has entered seven competitions, more competitions than 88% 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.
