In line with the melody of 'Homage to Korea', which Yuna Kim used as the background music for her free skating at the 2011 World Championships, 2005-born 'Kim Yuna Kid' Lee Hae-in gave the best performance of her life.
Starting with his first technique, the triple lutz-triple toe loop continuous jump, he did not make a single mistake in 7 jumps, and he performed a perfect performance that received the highest rating for all spins.
Hae-in Lee, who cried out loudly after the 4 minutes and 15 seconds of acting, shed heavy tears and brushed off her loss of tickets to the Beijing Olympics due to the sluggishness of the national championship.
With a total of 213.52 points of 143.55 points in the free skating, Lee Hae-in, who surpassed the previous personal best in all of them, ranked second after Japan's Mihara and won her first medal on the senior stage.

Ye-rim Kim, who will participate in the Beijing Olympics, also won the bronze medal by breaking personal best records with 140.98 points and 209.91 points in total. He was in good shape before the Olympics.
Signboard star Yooyoung finished 6th due to several jumping mistakes, including the triple axel.
