South Korea will attempt to pass 'host nation' automatic qualification through ISU.
The South Korean Skating Federation is putting forth a proposal to allow a host nation pair team (to be Couple #20) and an Ice Dance team (to be Couple #24)- as long as they meet the Technical Minimums for the OWG.
They argue that this is for the better for spreading winter sports in Asia and that the automatic entry rule has been applied in speed skating disciplines.
What are your thoughts?
Would Love to hear what you have to say about this.
