After an strong junior career, Yujae Kim is preparing for her senior debut—and she's determined to show a new side of herself.

In our interview, Yujae talks about:

• Making the jump to seniors alongside twin sister Yuseong
• Her new Frida and Gladiator programs
• Landing two triple Axels in the free skate
• Working with Kaitlyn Weaver and Yeaji Shin
• Her goals for the season and life beyond the rink

What are your thoughts on her music choices? What are your hopes and expectations for her this season? How do you think she will do at Skate Canada and Skate America as the field stands now?

I need her to bring back her LOTR fs at some point, it was my favorite last season. I do love Gladiator programs though, so I am excited to see her skate it. I hope there is a livestream for Cranberry Cup to see her and Yuseong compete in two weeks. For her gps, I'm expecting her to do well especially if she lands her 3a clean, but I know shes inconsistent in the short. Good luck to her!
