Jang Dong-min (; born July 20, 1979), is a South Korean comedian. He is known as "comedian who curses a lot", (his comedy style is mainly based on yelling and cursing). He joined Gag Concert as part of its 19th season (2004), along with Yoo Se-yoon and Yoo Sang-moo. Together they made up a trio called 옹달샘 (Ongdalsaem). He was the winner of the 3rd and 4th seasons of The Genius. He is particularly noted in the industry for his witty, if harsh and pointed, gags.
