Kim Seung-Hoon won the Cheonan Cube Championship 2008 with an average of 13.63 seconds. Paik Seung-Won finished second (15.33) and Lee Seung-Woo finished third (15.36).
World records: Kang Ji-Jon Square-1 17.77 (average).
Asian records: Lee Seung-Woo 5x5x5 1:26.66 (single), Park Sang-Jun Pyraminx 4.40 (single), Kang Ji-Jon Square-1 15.00 (single).

Nice overall results, especially the records.
Gilles has to explain me at EC what happened with OH tough.

EDIT! Wrong thread I am so sorry, it's late here, I should get some rest. I will PM PJK as soon as possible!

I wonder if Kazuhito Iimura will beat it in Tokyo (if he's going)? Hehe talented Korean cubers poping up again =)

Yea, I noticed many amazing results!

Did you guys notice that Feet close to being challenged the first time ever ?

If he didn't have that DNF, he'd be about 8 seconds off the WR.

Nice Square-1 WR. Second place was a 19.xx avg too.

did Gungs retire from cubing?

Gungz is in the Army, and will be for at least another year.

Close? 20 seconds off, or 30% of the total solve time, isn't very close in my opinion. Of course, second best is a great result, but I think that world record is going to stand for a little while longer.

That square-1 record sure is something, though.

You're talking about Single, I'm talking about average.

I say that I did not see a 20 second drop from his previous result coming.

I have to say, I think that's pretty reasonable. On the other hand, congrats to Chang Jee-Hoon for improving so much in two weeks.
