That look on her face when the score came up! "What?! For real?!" I don't think that was better than her last world record SP but that score is fine for nationals. If she's clean in the FS she'll probably break that 150 mark too and I say bring it on! Pour on the scores b/c this FS will be her final performance at nationals. Why not send her to Sochi with a bang?
Thanks for the video and other links! I agree that her reaction to the scores was priceless! Great skate and I must say that I enjoy this program quite a bit - and the chartreuse, including the arms, reminds me so much of Peggy Flemming (although she didn't have the sparkles). 'lympics will be great fun to watch - i can only hope the ladies bring it like last time!
Aw, she's so cute.
Thanks for the fancam link, Krislite! Here is another fancam that I love: http://youtu.be/X5qWibunMqc It almost seems fancams have better close-ups than the broadcast version. I really like her expressions and transitions coming out of the flying camel and her 2A. Really fits well with the swell of the music.
And yes, the dress is growing on me, too. It sure sparkles in fancam versions!

No doubt those photos are stunning. She is pretty incredible but I just wish she would not wear tights over her boots!!
Can't wait to watch her in Sochi.

I was actually thinking to myself the other day that Yuna might break 80 in her final Nationals if she skated clean.
The 2A was a little scary, but by the time Sochi rolls around, I don't think she should have any trouble with it. This is a lovely program, and the way she skates it is incredibly moving. I love how her subtlety -- the delicately unfolding hands, the depth of her edges in the step sequence -- speaks louder than any facial expression could. She seems so dainty ... and yet, when she jumps, she nearly takes the roof right off of the rink.
If she could hold the spiral just a tad longer, I'd be even more impressed.

Another Yuna thread by bots for no reason? Can we stop this already? You should combine this with other yuan thread. It is getting tiresome. A reflection of insecurity of these people. The earth will not stop without Yuna. Outside South Korea and skating world, very few people have heard of Yuna...

Not everyone needs to wear prescription rose-colored glasses to watch her performances.
With that said, I found this performance exquisite--the program itself has certainly grown on me. Though, it remains to be seen if how I feel about the long program will be the same.
Didn't you know? Such kind users were trying to increase ad revenue by enticing more people onto the site. Maybe Yuna doesn't make the world go' round, but money might.

You seemed pressed.
Outside South Korea and Skating World? First of all, THIS IS a skating forum. And I'm sure millions of people know who the Olympic Champion is. Even my friend knows her.

Poor thing. Someone give suzukifan27 a hug... Would making a thread called "Can Kim close the gap on Suzuki?" be of any help?
I'm not blind. I can see the perfect jumps, etc. I just don't feel it. I think Yu Na is the quintessential COP skater. She ticks off all the right boxes and gains maximum points. I just don't get the feeling, watching her, that she puts her heart and soul in it. And why should she? No points are awarded for those kinds of indefinable qualities.

Bots have a thread on Yu na's dress. It is very poor manner to pop up countless Yu na threads on a public forum for extremely trivial stuff. You can have your yu na universe all you want on her fans forum. It is a childish behaviour to compete for attention. No difference from the dear leader of SK's north neighbour toying with nuclear weapons for a few minutes' fame. Insecurity is in their DNA I guess.

That is an interesting comment, because my feeling about Yuna Kim's skating is just the opposite. To me, she is more like a 6.0 skater, only with greater subtlety than we are used to. Movement for the joy of movement. She shows her heart and soul in exquisite details rather than in extravagance. Thsi was a very satisfying performance. :yes:

This is a happy celebratory thread, Suzukifan27. No harm in it at all.

Oh dear. You seem like you're in a bad mood today. Might I suggest going hiking? A bit of fresh air and time away from the computer screen might do you some good.

Everyone should be more understanding. Suzukifan27 probably just had his day ruined by seeing 600 dislikes when he went to watch a Suzuki video on YouTube.
