that's what figures skating fans in Korea want, or it could be a IOC member as little Kim said long time ago.
KSU really needs to be separated from short track (and speed) cause KSU only cares about them.

screw the IOC.. i know she was vocal about this before but recently she's more realistic.. IOC is and will always be corrupt.. i rather see yuna not being part of it to be honest..

as for KSU.. wish figure skating will be disbanded from those losers.. they did nothing to protect yuna.. no support at all from the start until the end..

Sorry, he had and accident. Why cheater?

Apparently he went to massage parlor(the kind with prostitutes), and above all, he left his dorm, along with several others, without permission or telling his superiors. So now he is a regular soldier instead of being athlete status.

Ah ok. I know that the military service is very serious thing there, because of N.Korea, but I didn't understand the reference about the cheater. Now I see.
Is the status of athlete lost forever?

To make matters worse, some netizens are saying that if they needed a massage they didn't have to go out for it - as athletes they should have personal masseurs on base with them.

His mandatory military service is supposed to end in September so I suppose after that, in the eyes of the government, it shouldn't matter. Having athlete status probably meant that he had some perks over the regular soldier.

Of course, his image is soiled forever.

So it doesn't mean he can't be an athlete anymore. By the way, it's the first time I see him in a picture. I must say he is a very good looking man.

Apparently the three got "permission" from the coach to leave, which still doesn't cut it, because he wasn't an official who has the power of giving the soldiers permission to leave the premises. The probes and investigations are said to have proven that the establishment was not involved in prostitution. But they were still out driving (under the influence?) when they had no right to be. What irks me is the torn ligament. People are really going to be using that phrase karma's a ***** in relation to this whole deal, when in reality, we will never know what actually happened. And the guy's expelled from the national team, maybe will never recover his top form, as well as face the pointing fingers of the entire nation. Good luck to him.

ah, so he is being punished outside of just his athlete status. I doubt they'll ever forgive him. Thanks for answering my question about the mentor word, btw. Slowly learning Korean lol.

"All men do it" is not an acceptable excuse. But whatever. I'm not one to want to pry too much into Yuna's private life and her relationships. This being major news is a bit disappointing.

Of course you don't understand, who am I kidding :rolleye: It's not a big deal in Japan, yeah, I'm sure many Japan news site are busy to report this.

This is the big news in Korea, not because what he did or whoever he is as individual, it's because he is Yuna's man. He is expected to has great manner and not doing anything to embarrassing his high status girlfriend
