Figure skating national female single female single skater Ye-rim Kim confidently expressed her beliefs about the decision of 16-year-old figure skating genius Camilla Balieva from Russia to participate in the Beijing Winter Olympics, which was revealed to be taking banned drugs, saying it was not fair.
After completing the official training held at the auxiliary link near the Capital Indoor Stadium in Beijing, China on the 14th, Kim Ye-rim met with reporters in the joint coverage area and heard about Balieva's Olympic participation in the Olympics. "I don't think it's bad. I had a conversation with an American player about this, and he said it didn't seem fair."
She continued, "I think so too," she said.
Balieva faced her biggest crisis during her Beijing Olympics after her most recent doping sample detected trimetazidine, a component of her banned drug.
Baliyeva was not able to participate in the Olympic individual event, but according to the decision of the Sports Arbitration Court and CAS today, she will participate normally in the figure skating women's single short program tomorrow.
Today, Kim Ye-rim trained with the players included in Group 4, and Baliyeva trained for about 40 minutes in Group 5 with Yoo Young and many other reporters watching.
