Yu-Na Kim


When someone as special as Yu-Na Kim comes along, everyone wants a piece of her. Like the rest of the world, I’m taken, completely captivated by her excellence, by her championship, by her humility, by her grace, by her performances. But my blog is about laughter, so what can I say?

Well, there is something her coach Brian Orser said. When asked what he liked best about her, his answer was “her sense of humor”. So there you have it again, greatness coupled with a fantastic sense of humor.

And there is another thing her choreographer David Wilson said. He explains that when Yu-Na first came to him, she was wanting to become a "happy skater". Clearly it worked.

Yu-Na Kim, you’re one very special being.
