I have a Korean language question. Is the "Un" in Kim jong-un (leader of North Korea) the same as "yun" in Kim Yun-ah?

No, it isn't. The "un" in Kim Jong Un is actually "eun" if properly romanized; the "Yun" in "Yun-ah" would be "yeon" if properly romanized. The first sound, "eun," is pronounced similarly to the vowel in "could" with the "n" sound attached, while "yeon" is similar to the vowel sound in "ought" with a "y" at the beginning and "n" at the end.

yuna appointed as the honorary ambassador for Pyeongchang 2018 Olympics.. (not that surprising)

http://news.donga.com/BestClick/3/all/20141030/67534927/1

Selfcam clip from SK telecom 'The 100 letter' project: Yuna left her message to Korean young skaters.

“Hi guys, this is Yuna unni and nuna. You would be very nervous by this time. It’s year 2014 now. I hope you can always do your best. Don’t compare yourself with other skaters and make an effort for yourself, then I believe that good result will follow. I hope that you can get a good result that you can be satisfied at the Pyeongchang Olympics. I will be there at the arena to cheer for you. Korea’s figure skating future, Fighting!!”

Kim said it was "an honor" to act as an honorary ambassador for the Olympics, three years after helping PyeongChang win the bid.

"As a former winter sports athlete and a South Korean citizen, I am very pleased to be able to contribute to the organizing of the Winter Games in my country," Kim said. "I worked with the bidding committee three years ago, and I still vividly remember the moment PyeongChang won the bid. I look forward to an exciting venture with the organizing committee going forward."

As a two-time Winter Olympian, Kim said the best Olympics are the ones that serve the athletes best.

"At the Olympics, it's important for the athletes to compete without problems or inconvenience," Kim added. "As a former athlete, I'd like to help PyeongChang set up the best environment for competition."

congrats yuna!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :clap:

All I want from the PC Olympics (aside from the programs) is an ATS-style exbihition skate with the big screen, mini fireworks, and amazing audio system. Oh and the show's costume designers and stylists. You can't forget them. And of course, Yuna has to be in it as well (and maybe Mao and the other lovely skaters that I miss) and she shall skate to whatever song she likes.

Such an unlikely dream of mine....

Yes! In the first pic, is that So Youn in the white? I could be wrong, but who knows. Thanks for sharing, please post more of Yu-na on the ice if you see anything!

This was taken at recent Cup of China, some Chinese Yuna fans sure misses her!! They hope Yuna visit China soon so they can see her!
