Lee Junu has been competing for 11 years. His best event is the 4×4: a personal-best single of 38.09, set at Korean Championship 2018, puts him in the top 9.9% of the 83,917 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 193rd in Republic of Korea. Until October 2009, no official 4×4 solve in the world had been that fast. Across 6 competitions since October 2015, he has put 66 official solves on the record across six events.

Lee has entered six competitions, more competitions than 86% 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.
