Daniel Chun is a Korean American television comedy writer and producer. Born January 1, 1980, in the US, he built a career writing for some of television's most celebrated ensembles.

In 2015, Variety recognized him as one of its 10 TV Scribes to Watch, a validation of his ability to balance heart and humor. As a Capricorn, Chun channels the sign's reputation for structural discipline and long-term vision into comedy writing, a craft that rewards both craft and restraint.

His life-path number 2 reinforces this: the diplomat, the mediator, the writer who listens.
