Hur Kyoung-min (; born August 26, 1990) is a South Korean third baseman who plays for the Doosan Bears in the KBO League. He bats and throws right-handed.
While attending Gwangju Jaeil High School, Hur was considered one of the Big 4 shortstops in the Korean high school baseball league along with future KBO stars An Chi-Hong, Kim Sang-Su and Oh Ji-Hwan.
In, Hur was selected for the South Korea national junior baseball team again to compete at the World Junior Baseball Championship, where they claimed their fifth tournament title. In the tourney, he batted .200 (6-for-30) with 2 RBIs and 5 runs, playing in all 8 games as a starting shortstop.
Hur was selected by the Doosan Bears with the 15th overall pick of the KBO Draft. However, Hur spent his entire 2009 season in the Bears' second-tier team.
After the season, Hur temporarily left the Bears to serve a two-year mandatory military commitment. He played for the Korean Police Baseball Team in 2010–2011 during his military duty. He returned to the Bears in 2012 and has been with the team ever since.
