 I’m sure that you know well about Yuna Kim, a famous figurer in Korea. Recently, I read an article about her. According to the article, she said that she felt aggrieved at people who were calling her name while she practiced. The important thing was that she was practicing with other figurers when people called her name to take a photographs of her. She said that she was so sorry that she was there since they would have been able to concentrate on their practices if she hadn’t been there.

 Before I read the article about her, I thought she would be happy to be the center of people’s attention because she often appears on the television including commercial films or show programs. Moreover, she is just treated as a star, so that people nicknamed her ‘A figure fairy’. However, she wasn’t happy that much contrary to my expectation. She asked people to let her concentrate on her practice since she is not a monkey in a zoo. I believe that her aim must be a international figurer, not a star who should be in attention of the public. I feel sorry that she is obviously under a lot of stress because of her popularity that she doesn’t want to have.

One thought on “I’m not a monkey in a zoo!

  1. Yeah, I’m sorry about her about if the situation was a problem for her and any figurers but on the other hand I understand that people who were in around the figure ice-ground to see Yuna Kim. It is because they want to cheer her up and showing their concern and she is pretty popular as “star.” I can see her advertisement and participating in some program. I believe she is not only just figurer star but also national popular person that people could get enthusiasm in her. It would better she thinks thank you for people who care her and if she didn’t like she should to have another method such as choosing not crowded and unexpected place to practice even she like that place because she should to know if she visit there many people would care her.
