KEVU-CD (channel 23) is a low-power, Class A television station in Eugene, Oregon, United States, affiliated with MyNetworkTV. It is owned by Cox Media Group alongside Fox affiliate KLSR-TV (channel 34). The two stations share studios on Chad Drive in Eugene; KEVU-CD's transmitter is located on South Ridge, and it is broadcast by the higher-power KLSR-TV and its dependent translators.

KEVU traces its roots to the establishment of the full-power channel 34 facility as KEVU-TV, an independent station, on September 30, 1991. Owned by Raul Palazuelos, it broadcast from a converted house on Eugene's west side. California Oregon Broadcasting, Inc. acquired KEVU in 1994, a year after purchasing the low-power K25AS "KLSR", and switched the two stations' facilities in 1997, moving KEVU to the low-power channel 25 facility and KLSR to channel 34. KEVU was affiliated with UPN from 1995 to 2002 and has been affiliated with MyNetworkTV since its 2006 launch.
