More Yu-Na Mania!
Peter and Karen have done wonders with Yu-Na (as has David Wilson.) Even from just simple practice clips, her overall skating has improved tremendously. The clips say this is her short program, but none of the clips include any music. Yu-Na is supposed to debut her programs at Worlds.
She looks ready to kick some ass at Worlds. Now if only she'll compete. Translations would be great appreciated!

During the interview, she said something like.. "I will show some teasers for my short program.." So, yes, it's for her SP.
ReplyDeleteAHHHHHH
ReplyDeleteLove her!! <3
Looks like the Queen was ready and determined to conquer . world yet again. Hope she gets the chance to showoff her hard work.
ReplyDeleteYuna said : It’s been for 8 months since I left Korea, I’m practicing at Taenung ice link. I’m very happy to practice with other skaters, I can’t show whole programs so I showed some parts of short program. I’ll show perfect programs on ice show. I might be going to practice new short program for ice show(All that skate) which is going to be held in May. The short program hasn’t be edited yet for the ice show. As soon as it’s edited, I’m going to keep practicing hard. (About the world figure championship) I heard that I could hear some news from ISU soon, I’m going to keep practicing as usual.
ReplyDeleteThis is translations of the last video clip. My English proficiency is not perfect. If someone finds something wrong, please correct it :) thanks.
Yuna says to the reporters that she is happy to be back in Korea after 8 months and also to train with her fellow Korean skaters on the same ice. She is waiting for ISU to decide on the new venue and new schedule for the worlds, and in the mean time her focus will be on preparing for the All That Skate ice show that will be held in Seoul in early May. She will showcase the Giselle number and a new gala program at the show. She says she needs to rearrange Giselle to fit for a smaller show rink size because the number was designed for competition. No details on the new gala program nor her long program was mentioned. In other interviews, she said she is planning on having an ice show in the US in August, presumably in a similar format as last year's All That Skate LA. She says she will showcase her long program at the show.
ReplyDeleteYuna always made complete transformation from previous seasons, and the trend continues this season again. This program seems to be totally different from anything she has done so far.
ReplyDeleteAll her Moves are so sharp and crisp. She seems to be a different skater from last season, if that is possible at all.
ReplyDeleteI hope she continues, she is pushing ladie's figure skating into unparalleled level of excellence because of the visible improvements she made each year.
ReplyDeleteWhile every skater always have rooms for improvements and have experiences peaks and troves in their career. Rarely has excellence been enriched and heightened with as much consistently and clarity as Yuna continues to demonstrate from already a high place since her début.
With time, her refinement and maturity can only get better and it is amazing to see.
I wanna apologize to yuna. i thought it was impossible for yuna to get any better than the olympic season, now i realize i was completely wrong about it. Go Queen Yuna!!!
ReplyDeleteI am so over her. Ick.

ReplyDeleteOh no you have not!
Admit it, that is why you post what you did.
Finger point at you and loled.
Anyone who thinks it was "impossible for Yuna to be better than she was in the Olympic season" is just wearing rose-colored glasses. Back then, she was still rather reserved, slightly stiff at times, and lacked stretch and good leg line at times. In these videos, she shows some really nice improvements, especially in terms of the fluidity and expressiveness of her moves.
ReplyDeleteDo we know if All That Skate will be in LA again?
ReplyDelete@4:43 -- rumor has it there is an ATSLA planned for August!
ReplyDeleteI'm dying to see her at Worlds.
ReplyDelete@4:45PM
ReplyDeleteIt's not rumor. She said she's planning on having ATSLA in August!
she looks the same to me
ReplyDeleteShe is ready to kick some ass at Worlds.
ReplyDeleteI can't wait!
The first video clip's music is Yuna's voice!!
ReplyDeleteThat's her singing!!! (^_^)
WOW, I can't wait her Worlds.
She looks so great.
Yuna's skating has been polished even further to a lapidary style.
ReplyDeleteShe has achieved artistic movement, clarity of articulation, and fluidity.
It is going to be hard to beat her.
