An 18-year-old girl who made new history for Korean snowboarding, big air bronze medalist Yu Seun-geun will appear on MBC Omniscient Interfering View.
Tomorrow, the 21st (Sat) at 11:10 p.m., the 390th episode of the MBC variety show Omniscient Interfering View (planned by Kang Young-seon, directed by Kim Yoon-jip·Jeon Jae-wook·Kim Hae-ni·Jeong Dong-sik·Lee Da-woon, writer Yeo Hyun-jeon) will reveal Yu Seun-geun's intense training and moving growth story after winning a medal in Korea's first Olympic snowboarding "big air" event.
At the Milan Olympic stage, Yu Seun-geun surprised the world by successfully landing consecutive "bidirectional 1440-degree tricks," and she recalled the behind-the-scenes, saying, "It was the first time the trick succeeded at the Olympics." The national snowboard coach added, "Only two people in the world can perform this trick," and "one of them is Yu Seun-geun."
Behind the nickname "genius boarder", her "stubborn" grit also draws attention. Less than a month after the Olympics ended, Yu Seun-geun flew to Tokyo to train again, constantly launching herself aiming for a "1620-degree spin." Because there were no training facilities in Korea, she had to pay out of pocket to train abroad; she confessed, "Training costs were scarier than higher jumps," which moved the cast. Despite successive injuries such as a clavicle fracture and an ankle fracture, when her fighting spirit—competing in the Olympics with metal rods in her body—was revealed, the cast were left speechless.
The poignant story with her mother, who became Yu Seun-geun's strong support, adds to the emotion. To help her mother, who worked at a shaved-ice shop to raise training funds, Yu Seun-geun said, "I want to give my mother the 100 million won medal reward." Their sincere feelings for each other are expected to deliver a deep resonance.
Also, Yu Seun-geun said she would donate all of her appearance fee from this Omniscient Interfering View to a stray dog center, surprising the cast with a maturity uncharacteristic of an 18-year-old girl.<
