Two times gold medalist Yuna Kim!

[@santi0089]

The true Gold medalist during the 2014 Sochi Olympics, Kim Yuna.

[@xmeepz]

Her performances at Sochi were perfect and even though she didn't win Gold, she still did everything she could and like she said, she can retire without having any regrets. Her legacy will definitely live on and she's still #1 to me!

BBC commentator Robin Cousins said, " Yuna Kim is the grand dame of skating, a beautiful woman on and off the ice. She has such a graceful, classic style." "There are some other excellent skaters, notably the Russians, but they are mainly kids. This contest is a woman versus girls and I take the woman to win and become the world’s skating sweetheart " David Wilson said "Adios Nonino" is the most difficult FREE LONG program ONLY Yuna can perform this high level among the figure skaters and it will become one of the best Legendary program along with all her programs including her artistic Exhibition programs !!!

[@gy935]

I highly enjoyed this video, but I'm sorry, I just gotta say this: the English translation is a bit misleading. Yuna speaks a lot more modestly and humbly than the subtitles make it seem.

[@angelicam7179]

Yes I agree. My friend who speaks Korean watched this with me (while the English subtitles were on) and was like actually she didn't say that lol

[@user-xu9tr2sk3r]

[@IamMooshroom]

I’m Korean I want to do a Korean translation but it’s too long

[@KarineLeBaron]

We love her so much. She is a true inspiration to the youth. My daughter is 4 years old, the moment she saw Yuna skating she fell in love with the sport. Now she is taking private lessons for 6 months and going for her first competition. Yuna ~ Thank you! Yuna Kim ~ Thank you for bring up so much love for figure skating. Please don't leave the figure skating. The youth needs you as an amazing role model. :)

[@AXAV1]

Win or loss, she will always be an Olympic Champion. and like she said, I hope she has fun at these games and not worry about winning and enjoys her last games. Good Luck!

[@mschindel4260]

Yuna is so gracious, elegant, beautiful, intelligent, and well-spoken. Love her so much.

[@samirapompeu418]

Yuna is the best forever! It's amazing her focus, determination and discipline. The maturity in her speech is also amazing. I hope she wins, but regardless of the result, as she said her legacy is there. I do not believe there was another skater who could combine such technical elements as well as artistic in figure skating as Yuna does. kisses from Brazil.

[@angelicam7179]

Yuna you were the real winner in Sochi!

Is it possible for me to somehow re-write the subtitles so it's more of a literal and accurate translation of what Yuna Kim is actually saying?

[@karenfayeebora7429]

And here i am still misses her

[@alsoleve99]

Yuna Kim is everything future Olympian's should try to be.

[@dearsamz]

마지막 무대는 완벽했고, 금메달은 아니지만 아마 본인 역시 만족했으리라 생각합니다. 몹시 분하지만 그건 팬의 입장이고 직접 빙상에서 연기를 한 김연아로서는 최선을 다했으니까요. 누구보다 완벽한 연기를 했었다는거 본인이 알고 팬이 알고 세계가 알지요!!!

[@TheMoonandMar]

Why aren't you displaying Yuna's Sochi programs for US region?
