Gosh no. Is this a joke? They have complete opposite personalities.

Ever heard of opposites attract? I just thought because they both live in Toronto, are the same age, and are amazing, cute, asian figure skaters they'd be an adorable couple. They both seem sweet and shy though so I don't think their personalities are really that opposite.

Yu-Na just arrived in Vancouver with Orser and Wilson!
She looks so beautiful and full of confidence!

Thank you for posting these I was waiting for these (because Yu-na said she would arrive on the 20th). She looks stunning, as usual, and Orser also looks dashing My only hope for her is that she forgets about her country and legions of fans to skate for herself - my gut feeling tells me this will be enough for that elusive OGM (which she really wants). She's just a stunning skater. If she's clean, I don't see anyone beating her.

A new book on Yuna was published. From what I gather Yuna herself written it.

Why write a book before she is officially crowned queen? She should have waited until this spring.

I don't like Patrick Chan for Yu-Na

He's a little cocky

For commercial reasons? Didn't Michelle Kwan published her autobiography before the Nagano Olympics?

any practice reports? I saw a thread for men's practices, but nothing for ladies.

Great article with cute quotes from Orser. My favorite is:

He has tried to deflect attention away from himself, and toward Kim. If she wins, Orser joked, he will not run to the medal podium to claim the gold he lost in 1988.

“But maybe deep down, yes, it might make up for it a little bit,” Orser said. “Ask me when it’s over.”

I also like the opening.

As Kim Yu-na of South Korea skates her sassy Olympic short program Tuesday night, her coach, Brian Orser, is certain to pantomime his own James Bond routine along the boards.

He cannot imagine himself standing still in these eager and nervous moments. So he will move his arms, sway with the music, pace back and forth, hoping his energy will somehow become hers. And he will utter instructions under his breath: Pull in, relax, push, push.

“Maybe it’s me I’m talking to, I don’t know,” Orser said with a laugh.

You can Google "YuNa Kim Forum" and get some practice reports if you aren't already a member There used to be a link to her practice session, but YouTube took it down. Apparently, she was quite lively and in a good mood.

I think Yuna should go out with the Korean short track speedskater Lee Jung Su (who has won two golds now), because he's really cute and they are also the same age^_^

How about Jeff for Mao? <33
