About Quote by Yuna Kim

“After I won the Olympics, like any gold medalist, I did feel some emptiness in my heart. I did think about coming back to the ice for a long time. What motivated me is skating is something I am best at and I love the most. So I want to give it one more try.” quote by Yuna Kim — Download Open image
