Maybe slightly off topic but I was wondering... Korea seems to produce good speed skaters, but are they known to the general populace? Are there in general star athletes in the same sense as in USA, or are the stars mostly actors/singers/etc with a few exceptions (like Yuna with her modelesque looks)?There are actually many rinks in the country but the general public doesn't know a thing about figure skating. The only skater that they might know is Yuna Kim, but that's only because she's pretty and there's sort of a fixation with Korean pop culture here.
