The reason Kim Yuna's skating is so touching is her visualization of the music. She makes you see the music through your eyes and hear the dance through your ears.
I just compared her with Medvedeva... I understand nothing in figure skating, but... Just for look, in my opinion, Yuna is better. It seems to me that her skating is lighter, prettier, like she was born on the ice. P.S. I'm from Russia.
she's so pretty. i know it seems so shallow of me to say that after all that she did on the ice, but i can't help it! it's true! and besides, everyone knows she's just perfection on the ice.. so, why bother :D
she is well-trained in every single element of figure skating like a textbook! and based on the almost perfect technique, she is performaing like a dancer on the ice!! that's why her performances impress many (figure skating) experts & judges first. if fastidious ppl in rules and everything like experts & judges are moved, how much more would the audience? :)
yuna is totally perfect! her jumps are so high and fast, so she can get the high scores by that. she can also get the highest level from spins and spirals. spins are so solid and beautiful and especially yuna spin is fantastic! and her spiral position, arabesque is hard to maintain for 6 seconds.
@sabrinawbr4 that's true. here's more specific: her olympic season program, which is what you guys're watching on, is a technically sooooo high level of difficulty. (like many experts say, it looks so easy only bcuz she delivers it looking like so effortless! as well as flawless at the most times! ;-) yea, "she's a phenomenon!" lol) in order to deliver all of the (high level of) elements successfully, the program goes (relatively) simple in choreography than her previous programs. thx!
She is gifted never seen anything like this. please people don't get confused by fake videos on UA-cam. There are so many haters. just believe what you see, feel and what scott hamilton is talking about.
@dracocaeli this was in October, 2009. she didn't do one flip jump then. but she did perfectly with the flip jump at olympics. figure skaters usually have one short program and one free program for one season. figure skating championships are held in from October to March for one season. they are Grand prix (October ~December), 4 continent championship or Euro campionship (January), Olympics (February) and World championship (March). This video is at 1st Grand prix in France
this video is not olympic one. but she did perfectly with this routine at olympics. figure skaters usually have each one program (short and free programs) and do it for a year.
@st4l10n43v4 That's ok, I can understand you. I don't know well, but I heard that this program represents herself. She always took a role of someone on last programs like Scheherazade and Miss Sigon, so she wanted to perform a program without any stories.
@Music0Girl0 If you want to know about jumps of figure skating, this clip (youtube.com/watch?v=c1lEIturaUQ) will help you, I think. Yuna's jumps are called as 'Text book' because they're so perfect. You can learn them easily with the clip and her jumps. Once you know how to distinguish jumps, figure skating wil be much more fun to you.
@yzhang2008 yes, many korean names can be written in chinese letter like other asian names. her name is 金妍兒 in chinese. It means 'beautiful golden girl' as I know. chinese characters can show what names mean, but it's not easy to read and write in chinese. so korean names are usually written in korean alphabet. I think chinese and korean letters have their own virtue as ideogram and phonogram.
@st4l10n43v4 (second reply) Triple lutz is a hard jump, but she put it into the late of the program. :) I love the gesture front of triple salchow, too~. but some people think that she is playing the piano at the gesture.
what happened with that jump at 1:07 ? did she just give up? anyway apart from that it was a really good performance and great jumps, all really clean :)
@st4l10n43v4 Thanks for replying, but total amount was 7 with the triple flip. It's her small mistake that she didn't jump triple flip. She made her program perfect at olympics with triple flip. and.. what do you think the meaning of 'late'? The late which the commenter means is not same as what you think, I guess. It doesn't mean things like lateness for school, or time. The commenter said that triple lutz was on the latter part of the program.
@care4country well, it's odd.. when you copy the address and put it into your internet browser, doesn't it become ' ua-cam.com/video/c1lEItura--/v-deo.htmlUQ '?? i found it in my computer.. so you need to remove ' -- '. ( ua-cam.com/video/c1lEIturaUQ/v-deo.html ) I hope you can watch the clip. thank you for your comment!
@sabrinawbr4 Does her name have Chinese character version? I heard that many Korean (Japanese?) people have a version of their name written in Chinese characters. Thanks
@st4l10n43v4 well, the art can be interpreted in various ways. and look at this. (1)triple lutz-triple toe (2)triple flip (3)double axel-double toe-double loop (4)double axel-triple toe (5)triple salchow (6)triple lutz (7)double axel, This is her jump on this program. The total amount is 7, right? at last, please leave one reply. You left 6 same replies at once.^^ your reply will be shown after approval. I should check replies before they're shown because some people write dirty replies.
@Music0Girl0 'Yuna' is her first name, and 'Kim' is last name. So Yuna Kim (or Yu-na Kim) in English. However, her name is written as 김연아 (Kim Yuna) in Korean. 'Last name' comes first, and 'First name' comes last in Korea. That's why many people from other countries are confused like you. So if you want to call her friendly, just say "Yuna".
@care4country I think this clip of jumps is better ( ua-cam.com/video/Lu81i6vufW/v-deo.htmlA ) the bgm is better.. if you can't go on the link, you can find it on the favorites of my channel. or you can search the keword ' YUNA KIM 6 SORTS of TRIPLE JUMPS LECTURE '
★★Don't delete Yuna's videos!! please!! Yuna's video (hit over 1,000,000) was deleted yesterday. Someone also tried to delete another video from my channel last month. It was yuna's commercial film. So I asked the copyright holder of that commercial, and I could hear that they didn't try to delete that. The fact is..someone who tried to delete the video was a liar!! So I decided to leave only 3 videos on my channel in order to protect my channel.
★Don't slander other skaters here★ I'll delete your dirty reply. I know you are not Koreans and Yuna's fans. Moreover I know where you're from. Please stop that. Koreans and Yuna's fans don't hate other skaters.

She's so AMAZING!!! I love how the Ice matches her outfit, which in turn matches her elegance...
The ice is so beautiful...
she's so pretty.

and besides, everyone knows she's just perfection on the ice.. so, why bother :D
wow, it's amazing for her to do choreography in front of each jump. plus she keeps her speed!
she is well-trained in every single element of figure skating like a textbook! and based on the almost perfect technique, she is performaing like a dancer on the ice!! that's why her performances impress many (figure skating) experts & judges first. if fastidious ppl in rules and everything like experts & judges are moved, how much more would the audience? :)
She's so humble and sweet. The world is in love, queen Yu-Na !
She's just absolutely beautiful! Her ice skating is so unreal!
She's my idol. I wonder if I'll be up to her level one day

her jumps are so high and fast, so she can get the high scores by that.
she can also get the highest level from spins and spirals. spins are so solid and beautiful and especially yuna spin is fantastic! and her spiral position, arabesque is hard to maintain for 6 seconds.
