Korean figure skater Cha Jun-hwan won the season's first championship in the Challenger Series.

He perfected four quadruple jumps for the first time in this competition.



Ha Seong-ryong is a joke.

Cha Jun-hwan, who stood in the silver class with the enthusiastic support of the Finnish audience, flew vigorously to the background music of the movie 007 series.



He earned a bonus on his first jump quadruple salcho, and also played a clean quadruple toe loop, perfecting his first four quadruple jumps in the short and free.



In the second half of the added points, following the judgment of insufficient rotation speed, I made the mistake of treating the triple axel as a single, but it was a fantastic 'Inabauer' that glided beautifully on the silver plate.



After performing to the fans' standing applause, Cha Jun-hwan scored a total of 253.20 points, outpacing second place by more than 20 points, and won his first championship of the season.



Cha Jun-hwan, who won his second gold medal on the senior stage following the 4th Continental Championships in January, warmed up for his first appearance in the Grand Prix two weeks later.



[Cha Jun-hwan/figure skating national team: I made some mistakes, but I'm glad that I finished it well.

I will work hard to show you a better image next time (at the Grand Prix).]
