Daeheon Hwang is a South Korean short track speed skater. He took up skating in 2003 in Anyang, where he was born. In 2016–17, still a high school student, he was called up to the World Cup team as a substitute for two injured teammates and set a 1000m world record of 1:20.875 in Salt Lake City. He won 500m silver at PyeongChang 2018 and 1500m gold at Beijing 2022. At Milano Cortina 2026 he became the first Korean man to win short track medals at three straight Olympics, and his final-corner pass on Pietro Sighel secured relay silver.
