Yu-Na does it again.

I just got back from the gym in time to watch the second half of Yu-Na's show. Thanks to 'Aunt Joyce' for posting a link on their blog to a live feed.

Videos and photos are already popping up everywhere on the web. As expected it was a great success and the crowd went crazy. Yu-Na's hip-hop exhibition to Bulletproof was lots of fun and similar to her 'don't stop the music' piece from last year.

Sasha Cohen broke the mould a bit with her sexy fun performance from cabaret- fishnet stockings and all. Watching Michelle skate was as ever a treat - even though her music choices were a bit poppy and didn't show her off as well as a beautiful classical piece would. Yu-Na and Michelle's duet to hero was a tad cliche, but still special.


My favourite performance was in fact Min-Jung Kwak's performance to 'Don't rain on my Parade' She too has come on leaps and bounds in Brian Orser's camp and is now quite the performer. Great news for Korean skating as Yu-Na likely waves a gradual goodbye to competition.
