Kim Yu-na to perform in ice show in May

Kim Yu-na By Cho Mu-hyun Korean figure skating star Kim Yu-na will perform in front of home fans for the first time in nine months this spring. Her management agency All That Sports announced Monday that the 23-year-old and other internationally renowned figure skaters are expected to feature in an ice show “E1 All That Skates Spring 2012,” scheduled from May 4 to 6 at Seoul Olympic Stadium. Kim has not skated in front of spectators since last August in an ice show, also hosted by her agency. The event in May is the premiere of Kim’s new gala program. Especially for the occasion, All That Sports is planning to build a special rink that can house up to 10,000 spectators inside Seoul Olympic Stadium. “We are preparing a fantastic show for the fans to repay the support they have shown us in previous ice shows,” All That Sports said in a statement. “The new event is to bring the athletes and spectators together through figure skating.” The sports agency has previously hosted four ice shows in which both domestic and international figure skaters participated. Details of the specific program and the names of the invited skaters will be released soon.
