At the Figure Skating World Championships, Yooyoung came in 5th and Haein Lee came in 7th. For the first time ever, two Korean athletes entered the 'Top 10'.

Yooyoung, who finished 4th in the short program even with a double axel, played a triple axel game in the free skating.
However, the performance score was reduced by 1.65 points due to the lack of rotational speed.
After that, all three consecutive jumps with big points ran well, but I made a consecutive mistake in the last two jumps where there were hardly any mistakes.
He could have won a medal if he played properly, so it was a big disappointment.
Yoo Young finished fifth with a total of 204.91 points and achieved the best performance after Kim Yuna at the World Championships following the Olympics.
17-year-old Lee Hae-in, who seized the opportunity after Kim Ye-rim's corona virus, flew up brilliantly.
The short was sluggish in 11th, but in today's (26th) free skating, he performed flawlessly and climbed to 7th with a total of 196.55 points.
For the first time in history, Korea produced two top 10 players and won three tickets for next year's World Championships.
[Lee Hae-in/National Figure Skating Team: It seems to be a good memory, so it is meaningful and thank you for always cheering me on.]
Jun-hwan Cha, who had a hard time in the shorts as his boots broke, went to a dress rehearsal by fixing the taping, but due to concerns about injuries.
I abstained from free skating.
