Yeap.... But you know, KSU never concered about their skaters. They even hate Queen Yuna.

Yeah, if you think about it they're half the reason why she even picked up those damning injuries. Thanks, KSU, I'm sure the skaters all need a gazillion mandatory domestic competitions to push their bodies more than they already are.
But what can we expect, when they can't even manage short track, a sport korea is historically good at, properly. (Viktor An fiasco, the bullying/abuse, etc)

The next headline
The Other Next Yu-na Kim: Kim Ye-lim wows the crowd in Vancouver. Is she the next heir to the Korean skating throne? Find out in January as she battles the other skaters we also called the next Yuna Kim because we don't give a crap about figure skating really.
lol korea's real feelings about figure skating in a nutshell

You've just done the Korean press's work for them.
Let them host Worlds too once in a while!

Sorry if it was already been asked, does anyone know when is Korean National Championship? Any website that I can check schedule and buy ticket from oversea?
I am planning to go if time is workable for me, thank you in advance~

2019.01.11 - 13, no specific schedules out yet (won't come out until January). And here's the KSU's website, it's all in Korean but I can translate if you want. http://www.skating.or.kr/game/notice_list.do?sub_code=3&m_lnb=4&s_lnb=0

Thanks a lot! Jan 11-13 is good for me, and I just heard from someone who attended the game last year said that ticket can be bought on site. Hope it still goes this way~

I had no idea Young was doing Talinn Trophy, best of luck to her

It would be nice if Kfed had a page listing all those that had international assignments, like other countries. Then again, I like having her under the radar.
Tom and Tammy have four other skates competing at Tallinn. It seems like a good chance for her to tag along and get some practice for that 3A in competition. Hopefully, we’ll have video.
Some angelic fan got the video from SoCal Interclub Championship. It would be nice to see if she’s feeling more confident in both her programs.

I can't find You on the list of competitors at Tallin anymore, did she withdraw? 
i was excited to see her again, hopefully with some improvements!
edit: forget it lmao i was checking the senior ladies like the idiot i am
Hopefully we'll see a 3A attempt there
(no 4lutz please, please Tom, let's not )

You could go to the ranking competition? That's from Dec. 21-23. All the top skaters will be there since it's required for 4cc and national team selection.

So to sum up this year's grand prix:
2 JGP silvers (Yelim x2)
2 JGP bronze (YY, Haein)
3 GP bronze (Junhwan x2, Eunsoo)
The best overall results ever. Seoyoung really surprised me too. Beautiful layback. I'm so proud of all of them! Yelim and Junhwan both in the final is just so historic.

As for domestic competitions, my fave Jihyun continues to amaze me. I wouldn't be surprised if she and her coach were modeling their programs after Eteri's Russian ladies because the transitions into her 2Lz are a copy of Alena's into her 3F-3T. It's amazing to see her progress because I feel like it was only half a year ago she had no triples and an unstable 2A.:eeking: She grew a lot too so it looks like she doesn't know what to do with her longer limbs, but I still liked the step sequence and its frantic nature.
She and Hee-won are gonna bring it, I can feel it.

Her SS have quite some potential for a 4th grader. I like looking for young talents at random domestic events too, lol. I've recently discovered this youngster- hard to tell if he's a special talent yet, but with the much shallower talent pool in korean men's fs, he had noticeably better flow across the ice than the other guys around his age. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=A9IZZOvqsIo
I hope we can see more depth in men's soon! It'd be exciting to see another exciting korean talent in the junior circuit after junhwan.
