FINALLY.
And now two of my darlings have back-to-back (plus distance) GPs. For the sake of my sanity they are not allowed to get injured :roll5:

From checking Wikipedia, she announced her intention to compete on July 2nd and the initial GP entry list came out May 21st. So she wouldn't have been selected. And I don't know if the rule was the same then, but my understanding is that you aren't eligible for replacements if your fed doesn't enter you for the initial selection.
Kyu teamed up with Maxime deschamps! They will represent Korea starting next season. Go Kyu! Go Max!

Maxime Deschamps and Kyueun Kim
We're planning to make a public announcement later, and I will make another copy for the support on their road to Beijing!
We need your help to maintain the Korean Pair skating field!
Her mother says that they would have competed in worlds 2019 if the Korean fed has accepted them to get the minimum tes after the nationals, but since the Korean fed is now lying under the audit of the state, they couldn't get some exceptional permission to do it.
So they decided to register as Korean-athletes on May 2019, after Maxime gets some permission from the Canadian fed for competing as Team Korea.

Bless Kyueun on finding a partner that'll come to Korea (and him deciding to come), if Min/Eaton also works out we'll have representatives for all four disciplines

Sadly, her mother says that they aren't getting any financial support from the Korean fedration bcz they need to have the same nationality when they attend to get any support from the fed. It's ridiculous.

It's KSU, what do you expect :sarcasm: Here in Korea, we say the S in KSU stands for 'sh**' (it's not the same in Korean, but to translate it into English).
lol. commonly called 빙신연맹...

Is this a way to get around censors on an American website? I might bookmark it, if so.
lol idk about that. It's a slight modification of ksu(빙상연맹 that koreans use b/c the ksu does stupid things all the time.

It's more of a Korean wordplay thing (s_parks explained it already, but to elaborate: KSU in Korean is 빙상연맹 with 빙상 being Skating and 연맹 being Union. The word for 'ret*rd' is 병신, and since KSU are utter idiots we say 빙신 (sounds similar to 병신) instead of 빙상.), so unless you know Korean I don't think it'll be of use.

It's called the Presidential Ranking Cup, it's sorta like regionals. Only instead of districts you compete by age group.
Well, they do have competitons by district- I believe the seoul one has been just going on. And they also have one in other cities/areas. Then they compete in age groups w/in that competition...

Thanks for answering my question.
Am i the only one who thinks this girl's costume looks a lot like Mao's Liebestraum costume? https://twitter.com/_xxxkkkk/status/1054048003852460032

lol there's a lot of similar looking dresses, this one is nothing. I believe there was one time I saw a girl with pretty much the exact same dress as Cohen's yellow and black dress.

i think it's cute when younger skaters make some kind of tribute to older skaters (although it's obviously the coaching team behind it). You see the impact that some iconic skaters have made in the sport.
