do you see any guys wearing white skates? OBTs for ladies are like black skates for guys - they go better with costumes and are sexier.

her Adios Nino FS is underwhelming and not very Olympics worthy program
I don't think Adios Nonino is really "Olympic" music.
I agree. I try to look past that and I think the program is quite good, but given Yuna's ability to bring life to symphonic and broadway warhorse pieces I do think Adios Nonino is a bit beneath her.
Damn, the exact emotion that is missing just occurred to me -- anxiety. Watching Yuna's LP, it feels like she needs to make us worry for her, sadness with a lingering anxiety, and then when the uplifting moment happens, all is well.
I think those "warhorse" pieces you mention all have overt music and cues. When people say "this is not Olympic music", what they really mean (without realizing) is Adiós Nonino is more subtle, that it lacks obvious emotional cues to tell them how to feel.
I'd argue it is precisely going against the grain can make her stand out even more.

I'm a fan of fandomDoes anyone think that if Yuna were to come across this and similar threads it would creep her out? I'm sure she would never be caught dead on these forums and being the superstar that she is, she has to deal with unwanted attention and obsessive fans. But still, I find the level of obsession rather disturbing and I'm not even the subject. I understand that the intention is good, but it's like every molecule of her being has to be doing this and that exactly when and where and how or else the Yunaverse is doomed.
I dislike any snobbery with regard to music choice. It should never be about who is deemed 'worthy' or 'credible' to be associated, but looking at what the performer did and their unique take on them.
Maybe, just because she seems like an introvert who likes her privacy. But... meh... I don't find this particular thread creepy at all. But maybe that's because this is really tame compared to some of the other stuff I've seen. I wonder if Yuna's been stalked by any Korean netizens yet...Does anyone think that if Yuna were to come across this and similar threads it would creep her out?
I guess I should clarify my statement a bit. I think music like Gershwin and Les Mis were actually more challenging because they are harder to interpret with bodily movement, whereas it's very easy for women skaters to be sultry skating to a Spanish piece. Osmond, Adelina, and many others could perform to her LP music quite well.
