Judging in figure skating is miserable. South Korean skating federation and all federations should complain. Almost nobody looking at figure skating because of them.
I've checked the FS protocols from WC 2014, and astoundingly So Youn's TES is the 5th highest. The difference between 1st and the 5th is meager 3 points. (67 v. 64, Pogs got the highest)
3 points. Think about that. How many "incompetent" tech calls or judges with questionable backgrounds do you think would be needed to close that 3 point gap? *shudder* Give So Youn 9.50 PCS all around for "skating her heart out" and "thrilling the audience," and all it takes is a few "incompetent" tech calls against the other contenders. Heck, So Youn received level 2 for her step sequence so giving her level 4 for her steps will instantly reduce that gap to below 2 points. At that point a single wrong edge call can change the color of medal.
P.S. Not to discredit So Youn's wonderful debut - to the contrary I was very impressed by her performance. I just don't think she's a gold medal contender yet.
Why didn't they? No balls? Or what?Koreans are filing a protest regarding judge panels because Korean Skating Unions didn't protest within one hour after the result was shown.

I don't think Koreans will file anything but I want them to. I want to have more fun with this soap drama. I want to see how Pissev and ISU are saying: you don't like the wife of official on panel but you sent your official on panel in 2010. I want the world to see again what Koreans want- to work system for them only. Fair is only what is good for Yuna. Conflict of interest doesn't matter if it works for Yuna's favor and her country.
Still nobody answered my question: what facts or events Koreans found out within 60 days (besides the result that they had no balls to protest on time)? Without the said facts or events they have no case. Then what are they going to file? Anybody knows?
have you read the entire complaint already???
I do not believe Koreans file either. Pak So Yong just needs the same system as Kim. Pak got largest GOE that barely squeezed her into 9th of 2014 World.
that's why.. we don't know the content of that complaint.. we only read statements etc..
as for park.. well.. she didn't make a single mistake.. not even a 2 footed jump.. the british eurosport commentators mentioned that she has a very good technique in her jumps... it's her pcs that she needs to improve.. if she wants to be at least in conversation as next to watch..
Please explain how Pak could be so highly evaluated by the judges?
Because she's Korean? It's their destiny.

It IS true Koreans say Japanese are inferior to them because Japan is small islands and Korea is peninsula consisting Chinese continent, therefore Korean should be placed before Japanese. No joke.

I think GOEs are not only to deduct but it also adds to good performance. I GUESS judges closed shut their eyes with pourpose to ignore good performance of unfavoured contenders based on some intent.

I am not Japanese, not Korean. As an outsider, I think of the whole fiasco between these 2 countries' uber nationalists is stupid. Why don't you guy shut up already, spare us please. Neither of you is top of the world or inferior to each other. The whole thing is annoying. Go away if you wanna play the game of extreme nationalism.
This isn't about nationalism at all. It's about money, money, money. Some fat old men, some Italian, some French, some whatever country they happen to be from, wanting to pocket more retirement funds than they need, and the main corporation offering it happens to be Korean.
And posters who bring up fans' uber-nationalism are simply cooperating with these fat old men.
