(Seoul = Yonhap News) Reporter Kim Gyeong-yoon = Born on April 16, 2005, Lee Hae-in (Sehwa Girls’ High School) is the youngest of the 37 athletes who participated in the women’s singles at the 2021 International Ice Skating Federation (ISU) World Championship in Figure Skating.
He had never stepped on the ISU Senior stage before this tournament.
At a young age, Lee Hae-in was an important stage where the Olympic Quarter took place, and scored 10th on his ISU Senior Debut stage, leading the acquisition of two Olympic Quarters.
Lee Hae-in performed excellently in the women’s single free skating at the 2021 International Ice Skating Federation (ISU) World Championships in Figure Skating held at the Ericsson Globe in Stockholm, Sweden on the 27th, and entered the’Top 10′ with a final total score of 193.44 points.
It is the fourth time that a Korean player was ranked in the top 10 of the world championships after Kim Yu-na (2007, 2008, 2009, 2010, 2011, 2013), Park So-yeon (2014), and Choi Da-bin (2017).
Lee Hae-in succeeded in writing a big record before Yoo-young, Kim Ye-rim (Surigo), and Im Eun-soo (Shin Hyun-go), who are counted as Korean female figure skating troikas.
In addition, it has set a new record for being the youngest Korean figure skating player to enter the top 10 World Championships.
Lee Hae-in is a representative prospect of Korean figure skating.
He appeared in the junior debut season, 2018, in the domestic competition, the Junior Grand Prix dispatch selection, taking 2nd place after Yooyoung.
Three months later, he won a bronze medal in his debut match at the Junior Grand Prix, breaking the record for the youngest Korean player to win the Junior Grand Prix.
In 2019, he won two consecutive ISU Junior Grand Prix competitions, the second time since Kim Yu-na.
Lee Haein calmly rewritten the history of Korean figure skating.
Although it was not able to equip high-difficulty jumping techniques such as triple axel that runs three and a half laps, it swept the international competition by boasting a’strong heart’ that does not shake like a young age.
There was also a slump. In the aftermath of the spread of the new coronavirus infection (Corona 19) last year, he suffered confusion as both domestic and international competitions were stopped.
His strength, which is his strength, declined because he could not perform the training properly. The balance problems he faced as he grew tall also bothered him.
Lee Hae-in also finished third after Kim Ye-rim and Yoon Ah-seon (Kwangdong Middle School) in the selection of players dispatched to the World Championship held last month.
Tickets to the world championships are given to the first and second place, but Yoon Ah-seon is subject to age restrictions, and Lee Hae-in is able to stand on the stage of the world championships with a’pinch hit’.
Lee Hae-in showed off his skills at the first World Championship in a difficult environment and successfully entered the top ten.
Now, Lee Hae-in is running again to get the right to qualify for the 2022 Beijing Winter Olympics.
Korea decides the main characters of the two 2022 Beijing Winter Olympics titles brought by Lee Hae-in and Kim Ye-rim through a domestic selection.
Lee Hae-In also plays a domestic selection from the starting point again.
Lee Haein is training the triple accelerator for the Beijing Winter Olympics, but he does not plan to use it on the actual stage until this year.
With his unique calm acting and stable skills, he will once again take on the challenge.
Lee Haein, who finished the competition, said through her agency All That Sports, “I was nervous because it was my first senior competition, but it was meaningful to be able to compete with great players.
He added, “I am happy to be in the top 10 at the World Championships,” he added, “I made a mistake in free skating, but I will not be discouraged. As I confirmed the shortcomings, I will work harder.”
