Seoyeoung did very well at Junior Worlds, scoring a personal best in the FS and in Total Score.

My beloved did lovely at her first JW, didn't she. And she looked absolutely adorable wearing Beatrice's flower crown :luv17:

 

[dorispulaski]

She did!

 

[Lunalovesskating]

She was an absolute delight!

 

[Ichatdelune]

Happy 15th birthday ma chérie, hope you get to spend quality time with your friends and family, love you as usual :luv17:

I hope Seoyeong has a great senior GP debut this weekend. Is it her international senior debut as well? The last time I saw her skate was Junior Worlds at the start of 2020, with her beautiful Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon programme in the short, and Amélie in the free.
