SuperMin Posted December 15, 2018 Share Posted December 15, 2018 Not sure if this has been posted... but I see a figure skater turned KPOP star in the future. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, he already has the goods, I can see him having a future in korean entertainment industry too. He's already debuted as an actor too (and maybe ad a model too?), so I believe he won't have to worry about what to do after amateur skating(though hopefully he has many many years of competitions and ice shows ahead). I feel lucky that he's chosen figure skating for now, a field full of hardships in exchange for little 'material' reward (and he has also to deal with a not-the-most-supportive fed) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

By comparison, figure skating appears to be the healthier world. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SuperMin Posted December 17, 2018 Share Posted December 17, 2018 I love how Brian has such a great attitude towards Yuna Kim breakup. I think he has really high hopes for Jun as he matures and so do I. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree KPOP can be a hard life, but they start young and unknown , get their training paid for, so have to pay back to the company to some degree. Not sayin it’s a good system at all- many flaws. However, if Jun can make a name for himself in figure skating, he will have plenty of entertainment opportunities without similar hardships. Agree he has all the goods, eg looks and height ( big in Korea), and his bronze in GPF made lots of traction in major news stations. AND He’s the FIRST male figure skater in Korea with future Olympic potential. I am in Yuzu mode right now, but Jun’s got so much potential- fun to watch.

I love that quote he gave about not rushing to get better but going at his own pace instead. So far his own pace looks set to take him really far.

SuperMin Posted December 19, 2018 Share Posted December 19, 2018 "Cha Jun-hwan is the greatest Korean to take to the ice since Kim Yuna" http://koreajoongangdaily.joins.com/news/article/article.aspx?aid=3056877 "Cha is now the nation’s sweetheart on ice" - I know it's a small Fed but I hope his popularity will force them to provide more/better support. I'm impressed by how he is adjusting to his growth spurt. I'd be surprised if he grew any taller. Great potential and only age 20 at 2022 Olympics.
