  1. Well... 1$ is similar to 1000 won(korean money) so this is not that much money... I mean, it is big money but since Yuna is so popular in Korea, she makes lots of CMs, so it is not that much money for her..
    She has donated much more money than 70,000,000 won in other donations!!!Anyway, its nice of her to donate for Korean skaters.^^
    There are some people in Korea who treats her donations as behavior to become famous, but I think regardless of her real mind, donation is good thing-there are too little donation for Korean skaters so they have many difficulties continuing to skate.

  2. By the way, have you heard Mao is appearing at 3 ice shows? It's unbelievable since she lost her mother just 1 month ago.. She's so strong.
    In nagoya festival practice, she practiced 3A and 3F-3Lo. She made mistake in 3F-2Lo in the real show, but I think she was trying to do 3-3 because she usually doesn't make mistake in 3F-2Lo if she lands 3F properly... I wish to see her 3A and 3F-Lo in 4CC.

    She's appearing at Nagoya festival 2012, Stars on Ice 2012, Japan Super Challenge 2012.

    Here are her nagoya festival images.

  4. Hi Smile! No I didn't know Mao was doing all these ice shows, that's really courageous of her. Can't believe how strong this girl is. I suppose this is the best way for her to get through it all, her mother would want her to continue to do what she loves.

    That's good to hear Mao is doing the 3F-3Lo again, maybe it will be included at worlds!

    Thanks for these updates also on Sasha, she's one of my favorite skaters so it's good to know she's doing these shows.

  5. I love Sasha's programs and unbelivable flexibility, too! It's long ago but her swan lake was beautiful! By the way, I heard the news that mao had done 3F-3Lo in JSC!!!It's not sure that she made precise 3-3 right now, though... I want to check it with my eyes!+Can't believe that she's doing such jumps in just an ice show!!!
