Former figure skating athlete Kim Yuna has returned to the ice.
Kim Yuna released photos on the 28th that show her wearing training clothes and ice skates at an ice rink.
On the 27th, Kim Yuna participated as a special instructor for the master class at the Play Winter Figure Skating Academy, hosted by the PyeongChang Foundation for the 2018 Olympic and Paralympic Winter Games, guiding the participants.
That day, Kim Yuna conducted basic skills reinforcement classes, including jumps, stroking, and edge work, at the Gangneung Hockey Center, along with one-on-one spin lessons. Young athletes participating in the figure skating academy had the opportunity to skate along with her after listening to her explanations and watching her demonstrations. Former national representative Kim Hae-jin also participated in the class, helping to instruct the skaters alongside Kim Yuna.
Kim Yuna noted, "I enjoyed spending time with the younger athletes through Play Winter, and I hope it became a good memory for the participating skaters," and added, "There will be many difficult times for the younger athletes during their careers, but I hope they overcome them well and grow into wonderful skaters."
Meanwhile, Kim Yuna married Go Woo-rim of the crossover group Forestella in 2022.
