You An Kim (김유안) has been competing for a year. His best event is the Pyraminx: a personal-best single of 4.09, set at Ansan Autumn 2026, puts him in the top 8.2% of the 130,891 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 135th in Republic of Korea. Until February 2008, no official Pyraminx solve in the world had been that fast. Across 16 competitions since March 2025, he has put 233 official solves on the record across six events.

His 3×3 best has come down from 16.87 in March 2025 to 14.22, a 16% improvement. You has entered 16 competitions, more competitions than 96% 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.
