Bang Gui-man (also Bang Gwi-man, Korean: 방 귀만; born 4 May 1983, in Namyangju, Gyeonggi) is a South Korean judoka, who competed in the men's lightweight category.[2] He represented his nation South Korea at the 2004 Summer Olympics, picked up four medals in the 66 and 73 kg division at the Asian Judo Championships, and earned a bronze medal at the 2014 Asian Games in Incheon.[3] Throughout his sporting career, Bang trained for Namyangju City Hall's elite judo squad under his longtime coach and mentor Cho In-chul.[1]
When South Korea hosted the 2014 Asian Games in Incheon, Bang culminated his ten-year career medal drought from the international scene to score an ippon victory over 2012 Olympian Navruz Jurakobilov of Uzbekistan for a bronze in the men's 73 kg class.[6] Two days later, he helped his fellow South Korean teammates outplay their Kazakh rivals to top the medal podium with a gold in the team competition.[7]
After the World Cup in Rome in October 2010 he tested positive for banner stimulant drug methylhexanamine and was banned for 2 years.[8]
