Just curious, looking at the cast, everyone except Adam is truely star on ice, with at least a World Champion under their belt. I know Adam is cute, and good, but any other reason beyond that?

Who knows. He is 2-time juniors champion, trains with Orser.
Shae-Lynn Bourne there is too not World Champion.

Bourne & Kraatz were world champions in 2003.

Well, I think show organizers couldn't find another World Champion level male skater. First, they tried to invite Evan but failed (He came to the Super Class show managed by IMG). Probably, they tried hard to find that level, but failed, I guess. At least, Adam is a reghning Jr. World Champion.

BTW, Shae-Lynn Bourne was 2003 World Champion.

There must be other reasons than that because Butle said he was considering participating in both shows. Maybe some scheduling conflict. I wouldn't say Rippon is out of scene given his popularity in Korea.

Wow, another news clip! Thanks, dkyoun!

According to KBS news, about 50 journalists from 16 overseas media came to Seoul for covering the Ice All Stars. Wow!
